LUMDIMSUM'S TOP 5 PICKS

Mama Mia! La Pizza

Posted: November 22nd, 2009 | Author: LumDimSum | Filed under: Foodies & Dining Scene | Tags: CW Gourmet Month, Dining, Solana | 1 Comment »

Everyone always says ‘Quality over Quantity,’ but sometimes a lot of quantity is all you need.

La Pizza’s Gourmet Month Set Menu for RMB 99 is for TWO people.  Not one, but TWO.

For 99RMB, you get:la pizza

  • 4 Arancini Fried Sicily rice balls
  • 2 generous bowls of soup (1 pumpkin & 1 tomato)
  • 50cm-long Pizza Marinara Napolitana! (I recommend to add cheese for RMB 20, which is SO WORTH IT)

SUCH GOOD VALUE!! Aside from All-Star’s Gourmet Month menu (3 course menu PLUS drink for RMB99), big ups to La Pizza for not skimping and providing a great set menu for gourmet month.

Review of La Pizza: Building No. 3, 1F, SA-48, SOLANA Commercial Center, 6 Chaoyang Park Road, Chaoyang Park 蓝色港湾国际商区, 朝阳公园路6号朝阳公园西北岸边  Tel: 5905-6106

Best Part:

  • Serves very authentic thin-crust Italian Pizza, straight from wood-fired oven
  • The place was completely packed on a Saturday nightla pizza logo
  • Casual atmosphere
  • Great value with huge proportions (the 50cm pizza is their medium size, so just image how big their large is! – enough to serve about 6 people)

Comments:

  • Service was chaotic and not very attentive (but in their defense, they were very busy)
  • Regular menu’s prices are not cheap. If you just want quantity with good value, I still would choose Kro’s Nest’s pizzas.
  • They had run out of tomato soup, which we switched for a mushroom soup
  • In ordering the gourmet month menu, you should be prepared to expect a marinara pizza -no cheese.  If you are a cheese fanatic like me, I highly recommend to add cheese for RMB 20, which makes a great difference

      [...] I’ve already tried their pizza previously during CW’s gourmet month deal, I decided to switch it up. This time around I ordered the Cronchetto Classico (RMB 120) as it was [...]
