We often walk the stretch of Pedro Romero de Terreros between Providencia and Mier y Pesado. The
Mercado is over there. My
gym is around the corner on Avenida Coyoacán. Judy is at the
Sumesa on Mier y Pesado legit 5x/week. But we rarely think to stop and eat at one of the spots lining the south side of the street. We did try Ihui once (it was
just okay). Looks now like Ihui might be getting squeezed out by the new place
Corteza (which we passed on yesterday as it seemed more like a cafe and was kinda dead vibes). Strolling without any specific destination in mind, we stopped in front of
LunCHBeria and the menu got our attention. (See it on
Rappi.) An Italian Beef sandwich inspired by the Bear. A breakfast bacon maple sandwich that sounded pretty good. We were intrigued, so we sat down.
Interior seemed friendly / inviting. Though I'd have to try out those bar stools. Think I'd prefer a stool I can move around.
I noticed on their menu they had a big selection of craft beer, a few of which were highlighted on their chalkboard hyping up tomorrow's NFL action.
Chill, local vibes eating on the banqueta.
Judy got the Italian Beef sandwich. I went with la hamburguesa goat. Her papas al romero were great. She liked the sandwich and would get it again, but wished it had a broth to dip it into, like a French dip I guess. My burger was decent. I'd try the clásica if we go back. And I'd skip the pure de camote. Usually that's a lock, but there was almost a licorice-esque note to it that I was not digging.
Net: love the concept and the ambition. Service was super friendly. Next time we'll stop by on a Sunday to watch a little football with one of their craft beers.
