About Cucina Espresso
Bringing a slice of Italy to Concord, Cucina Espresso has a loyal following for serving up surprising and satisfying café fare. Located on Majors Bay Road, take a seat by the bifold front windows and people watch while sipping an aromatic brew, or relax further inside where a stacked stone half wall and monochrome prints of Italian landmarks set the tone for a leisurely lunch. Expect authentic Italian dishes utilising the freshest ingredients, like breakfast tempters of an open truffle porcini omelette, topped with bacon, potato mash, shavings of Grana Padano and toasted pane di casa. The lunch crowd delves into the likes of pan-fried crispy skin barramundi, served with rustic potato mash and kale; or beef lasagne with buffalo mozzarella and bechamel, washed down with a glass of Shiraz.
