You say pizza, I say potato! Firezza review
The mere mention of the word ‘pizza’ conjures up images of mouth-watering Mediterranean ingredients such as spicy salami, mounds of melted cheese and … potatoes!
Yes, you read that correctly… potatoes.
For they are one of the key ingredients in Firezza’s Patate Pizza, which is back on the menu by popular demand.
The Daily team were apprehensive about ordering what was effectively spuds and bread for lunch but being an adventurous lot went for it anyway, although I have to admit we bagged a Tutta Bufala as back up.
However needn’t have worried as the Patate was DELICIOUS!
The pizza is fire-roasted and topped with sliced potato, creamy taleggio cheese, mozzarella, fresh cream and red onion and finished with fresh rosemary & sea salt.
In the same way that anchovies and lamb work well together and chocolate brings a whole new dimension to Chilli Con Carne, it was a taste revelation.
The Tutta Bufala, topped with fiery buffalo salami, buffalo mozzarella D.O.P., tomato, mozzarella and fresh basil was also a winner.
One thing everyone raved about was the pizza bases. They are super light and act as a support act to the outstanding main ingredients, rather than being a stodgy distraction.
In addition to our pizzas we ordered mozzarella dippers chicken wings, garlic mayonnaise dip and roquito pepper sauce dip.
The garlic dip was a potent aioli-style creation and the roquito strong enough to blow just one sock off.
The dippers melted in the mouth but sadly your reviewer can’t comment on the chicken wings as his greedy colleagues gobbled the lot.
Our final verdict? Well they say a picture paints a thousands words…
