| - Last night, I was lucky to have gone to PIzza e Pazzi for a second time.
I went with a couple of friends (based on my recommendation).
Although we noticed one bottle to be over-priced, considerably, on the menu, I believe we had a very reasonably priced, and good-tasting, Chianti.
We shared a appetizer of rice balls with mozzarella - it was crispy and tasty.
One of my friends ordered a red pizza and was brought a white version.
When we questioned our waiter on this, he said "I think that one should be on the white menu" ... well, that's not really a good enough answer; he definitely should have informed us before finalizing our order.
While our table had very mixed reviews of the pizza, I was extremely pleased with the product. I had the Tre Funghi.
The crust was crispy in parts and bagel-like in other. Perfect in my mind.
The sauce was tasty ... the mushrooms delectable.
The spicy oil was good ... however, I would have loved some pepperoncini like they have at Terroni (which happens to be one of my fave spots for pizza).
Most importantly, I was blown away by the engagement of the owners ... Sandrelle and Danilo. They stayed at our table for a good while chatting with us about everything and nothing.
We were treated to Grappa at the end of the evening ... and for dessert, Danilo put together a plate of everything so that we could try it all.
The new location is opening soon at Christie and St. Clair ... watch out LIbretto and Queen Margherita, there is a new kid in town, and they want to take the crown!
Salute Pizza e Pazzi!
