Thin Crust Pizza @ Peperoni Pizzeria

Half-half Pizza: Frutti di Mare & Diavola

Half-half Pizza: Prosciutto Crudo di Parma & Salmon

To continue my previous post on Peperoni Pizzeria: after the appetizer of their delicious Portabello Mushroom, we ordered two of their family size - XXL at 21 inch (S$50) - pizzas with both half and half types of pizzas.

For the first one, we had half the Proscuitto Crudo di Parma (pork) and Salmon. The Proscuitto Crudo di Parma had tomato sauce, mozzarella, Parma ham and rocket salad. The verdict by the carnivores was good. They loved it. The Salmon had tomato sauce, mozzarella, fresh salmon, caramel onion and capers. I was actually expecting fresh as in raw salmon but it was actually cooked salmon cubes. While it wasn't what I expected, it was very good nonetheless. 

The second pizza we had was half Frutti di Mare and Diavola. The Frutti di Mare or roughly translated "fruits of sea" (correct me if I'm wrong) had tomato sauce, mozzarella, and mixed mushroom (button, shitake, porcini). Also very, very yummy. The Diavola had tomato sauce, mozzarella and pepperoni. Also very good but one comment was that the pepperoni looked and tasted almost like tocino. Which actually makes sense because tocino is sweet cured pork. Their pepperoni is not the usual red circular things you see in other pizza places.

The pizza crust was very thin and crunchy but since we ordered a very large pizza when you get a slice in the middle (it was sliced in squares), it got soggy and not crunchy anymore. Some guys ended up looking for crusts at the end.

On another note, I am so thankful to have understanding friends. As the only pesky pesce in the group, they were very gracious to always choose a seafood half on the pizzas.

Cheezy 7 Pizza @ Pizza Hut

A good thing about being pescetarian or vegetarian is that you end up avoiding fast food restaurants because of the lack of options it provides. For example in McDonald's, the only thing a pescetarian can get from their menu is the Fillet-O-Fish and honestly, I don't even know if that is fish. Plus, it doesn't really taste all that good at all. If you were a vegetarian, you'd really be out of luck.

While abstaining from fast food restaurants is good, the downside is the fact that those are usually the only types of restaurants that offer food delivery. So when you're at home and lazy to cook or get take out, you really don't have a lot of choices to choose from.

This was one such night. Whenever I have food delivered, my first choice is usually Pasta Mania because of their Prawn Aglio and other pescetarian options. But I wasn't in the mood for pasta. I ended up ordering something from Pizza Hut. I was already thinking of their regular cheese pizza but lucky me, they had a new flavor out: the Cheezy 7 Pizza.

The Cheezy 7 pizza is the "ultimate pizza for cheese lovers", according to their site. The seven cheeses used are: mozzarella, cheddar, parmesan, romano, monterey jack, provolone, and cream cheese. It is a lot of cheese in a bite and it's real good. The blend of all these cheeses are just perfect on a pizza. I was only able to finish off two slices because cheese is very filling. I hope this won't be a seasonal flavor. I'd love to see this as a regular item on their menu.
