Overview
Melbourne has staked out most corners of the global culinary map, but there aren't too many American diners in the city. Lulie Tavern is trying to remedy that with its latest pop-up: Lulie's Weekend Diner.
Every weekend from June 17, Lulie in Abbotsford will transform into a proper tribute to Americana, with extended opening hours, a new breakfast menu and plenty of brew coffee, courtesy of the guys at Coffee Supreme. It's as American as you're going to get without needing to leave a tip.
For the menu, think American-style breakfast muffins with egg and cheese, pork and fennel sausage patties, hash browns, brekkie tacos, eggy French Toast and smoky baked beans. All the food groups you need for a rocking good Saturday morning (especially if you enjoyed a rocking good Friday night).
The diner pop-up will run every Saturday and Sunday until mid-July, so you've got some time to catch this one. The menu runs most of the day, too, from 10am to 3pm. You can also grab Lulie's regular menu from midday, if wall-to-wall sausage patties aren't really your thing.
