Los Huevos de Lucio
Los Huevos de Lucio opened on Calle Cava Baja in 2001 as an heir to the Casa Lucio across the street, whose founder Lucio Blázquez made huevos rotos one of Madrid's most famous plates. The kitchen sticks to home-style Spanish tavern cooking, with the fried eggs the house is named for at its centre. The room is relaxed and informal, with a bar for a quick plate and tables across several levels.
Background
About Los Huevos de Lucio
The Story
The name is a nod to Lucio Blázquez, the Cava Baja tabernero whose huevos rotos, fried eggs broken over potatoes, became one of Madrid's most famous plates at Casa Lucio. The family opened Los Huevos de Lucio directly across the street in 2001, carrying over the same cooking in a more relaxed, informal room.
The Cuisine
Home-style Spanish tavern cooking, with the fried eggs the house is named for at its heart, backed by an extensive wine cellar.
The current room
The taberna moved a few doors along Cava Baja, from number 30 to a larger, refurbished space at number 32. It describes its cooking as tradition, home-style food and well-sourced ingredients meeting the chef's innovation, with seasonal off-menu dishes, and it shares its contact details with Casa Lucio.
