week 28: zigolinis pizza bar
what?
i have to keep up with restaurant challenge during my schnitzel month?
apparently so, say's my boss {me}
i'm really going gaga over this napoletana pizza business.
it's making me obsessive.
like,
i need to try all of them.
and then i want to somehow assemble a meal with one pizza from each of the top contenders and judge which one is the best.
but if my food memory serves me correctly,
has the best crust.
it's the first crust on a napoletana pie where the middle wasn't soggy
{i was beginning to accept that as a casualty, you know, like separated mustard goo}
it's like pillsbury doughboy all up in that shit,
that's how doughy it is.
the first time i went
-i went two times in a week-
i ordered the margherita
which was like dough-overload.
i was all
where's the rest of the cheese, luigi?
{yes, the pizza dude's name is luigi and he a-comes from a-italia}
lesson learned,
i returned and got
pesto
with mozzarella
and
can i have tomaters on that?
much better balance of dough to friends
and luigi yelled at me when i tried to put parmesan on it.
like, what?
is pesto + parmesan faux pas or something?
evs.
it was delicious and i gobbled it up and didn't have any room for dessert but got it anyways
#storyofmylife
get this:
nutella pizza
same doughboy crust,
nutella,
marshmallows
sugar overload.
i coulda done without the marshmallows and more nutella.
but,
in life,
there's never enough nutella.
if there's a better napoletana crust out there,
i'm going to find it.
but i think it's going to be pretttty difficult.
till then,
i'll just eat a schnitzel.
...24 mi amores!
