NOW OPEN: Lulu's Pizza Bar

Over the past couple weeks we've noticed Bocca (236 Market St.), right down the street from City Paper HQ, converting into Lulu's Pizza Bar. The owners — Luciano Lamberti and the folks behind Fairmount and South Jersey's Luigi's Pizza Fresca, hence the name — have had the space since mid-April, but just pulled the trigger on the name change a few weeks back. Right now they're offering apps (tuna tartare with avocado, jalapeno, pineapple and sesame oil; shrimp risotto; Spanish mussels with chorizo and peppers in a spicy marinara), pastas (orecchiette, linguini, lobster ravioli, gnocchi) and sandwiches in addition to their seletion of "thin-crust tomato pies," which come in 10- and 14-inch sizes. For pizzas, expect straightforward flavor combos like sausage/roasted red pepper/fresh mozz and prosciutto/arugula/fresh tomato. Along with a planned expansion of the bar, expect the pizza selection to grow moving forward; they'll soon do calzone and stromboli, as well. Lulu's serves food Sunday to Thursday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Friday and Saturday till midnight.
