This Pizzarium was on our list from the start and we kept putting it off. One day we finally decided to take a cab to it and low and behold it was at the bottom of the hill to our neighborhood. Probably a very good thing in one week we ate there 3 times. So this was on a lot of food blogs and finally we saw an article that Anthony Bourdain had come to town and went here. Let us just say it was good. This place has been known to do a foie gras and cherry pizza... we tried 4 each time. maybe even more the first time. Bresaola like meat with figs and a sharp parmesan type cheese with a bitter salad green, one with bacala (salt cured fish) and some craziness, one with fresh mozzarella, basil and sweet roasted yellow peppers, a sweet hot sriracha pepper type sauce and a jam of sorts, another one with fish and anchovy oil too many to remember. But the best and simplest of all was the potato and cheese (picture below). It was so fantastic I just cant tell you. The potatoes were smashed Yukon golds with a sweetness and buttery depth covered in a toasted mozzarella oh my goodness. so good
just a simple store front with a kitchen in back. The guys had burns on their arms from the ovens.
served on a wood board shaped like a painters paddle.
