Finally, a very decent American-Italian style pizzeria by way of Mario Batali's Pizzeria Mozza located at Marina Bay Sands!
The name of the restaurant implies the specialties - pizza and mozzarella cheese. We ordered the caprese, which was pathetically small to share between three people. I say that because it was delicious. Creamy with a subtle milky flavour, the cheese paired well with the pesto and sweet vine tomatoes.
We also ordered the bell peppers stuffed with tuna and a generous dose of olive oil which begged for some bread to mop up. The peppers and tuna were tasty enough together, nothing spectacular though.
Seeing how small the dishes were, we ordered a third appetizer, grilled squid with chickpeas. Succulent chargrilled squid with a beautiful smokey flavour was delicious. Again, I wished the portions were just a tad bigger.
Then the pizzas arrived. These possessed a sturdy and olive-oil enriched crust that was crispy / crunchy, but yielded to a chewy and airy texture. Here below is the funghi pizza. I wished it had less crust though. But overall, a very delicious mix of mushrooms and herbs and florentine cheese on really delicious bread.
We ordered another one, this time, one with plain tomato base topped with white anchovies. Generous serving of anchovies, which were too salty on its own, but made a good foil against the rest of the pizza.
There are tons of other pizza combinations that were tempting me to return asap. But until the next occasion, I can only anticipate.
Pizzaria Mozza was packed and seems to remain that way, so ideally try to make a reservation. However, there are counter seats for walk-ins, so I guess you could still take a chance.
