I don’t even care if it can be considered real pizza or not, I just need to make the important announcement to the world: I found the bestest pizza in all of Manila!

 

IMG_9689Pizzettas
Served hot, thin and crisp, with lingering aroma of anchovies, mushrooms, caramelized onions, gruyere and parmesan. I marvel at the simplicity of the ingredients, how they all come together to create this wonderful piece of heaven served to me on a plate. 
Really, you must try it.

 

IMG_9680Arugula salad, watermelon, candied walnuts, feta cheese, raspberry vinaigrette.
Simple, healthy and good. I love arugula. And walnuts. And feta.

 

IMG_9684Garlic shrimps, olive oil, white wine, paprika.
We ask for bread to mop up the garlicky goodness. Not a drop goes to waste.

 

IMG_9692Grilled pork chops, homemade applesauce, potato-corn gratin.
The chops are a challenge to chew and the flavors do not penetrate into the meat. 
I am mighty disappointed.

 

IMG_9695Spaghetti tricolor, roasted garlic shrimps, arugula.
The pasta is perfectly al dente, the shrimps big and succulent, but the whole dish is gravely lacking in flavor. Rather forgettable.

 

IMG_9700Flourless chocolate cake, raspberry coulis, vanilla ice cream.
I know this place is famous for its White Toblerone Cheesecake. Tried it and thought it was too sweet. So I have this really dense chocolate cake instead. Ok, this is also very sweet but the ice cream balances the sweetness, plus it is perfect with my…

Go for the pizzettas! Go!!!
