The Bar Lourinha team of Jo Gamvros, Simon Benjamin and chef Matt McConnell do their new thing inside with offerings of rustic flavours and textures of crab-filled ‘shisito’ peppers, boquerones and sardines with saffron vinegar to accompany your Super Bock Portuguese ale or local drop of vino. Casa Ciuccio’s menu promotes shared dining with dishes designed to ‘snack’. Try the yabbies and romesco, octopus tentacle, short rib and chimichurri pincho from the grill in the front room, or head into the ‘kitchen table’ setting to watch the chefs as they cook right in front of you. Full goodness right here.
