Gurgaon has a lot of options for good pizzas, so why am I reviewing another pizza place you might ask. Well it is because this is the only place that serves the Neapolitan crust, and that too at a price of Rs 400 or under for a 12” pizza. They also have Gurgaon’s favourite thin crust, but Neapolitan crust is special because it is the original crust the pizza was made in, and it gives pizza a perfect bite.

Eros city square is yet a nascent market that has sprung up a stone’s throw from Good Earth mall. I am here at the invitation of banker turned pizzaiolo Kirti Vij to try out his pizzas and other unusual dishes at his new pizzeria. 

  

We start with a 12 incher pepperoni studded Americana Pizza (Rs 400) which is perfectly baked with a bubbled up crust giving that extra crunch and the whole experience quite enjoyable. While pizza is clearly the hero of the place, I do try out some other interesting items in the menu.

 

Lamb Panuozzo (Rs 350) is an Italian sandwich, which tastes somewhat like mutton kulcha in a good way and is a great meal in itself. Vegetariano Calzone (Rs 300) is a calzone that for a change is not bready, but with just the right amount of crust for the crunchy vegetables inside.

 

The only disappointment of the lunch is the hand made Spaghetti Carbonara with bacon (Rs 350) which does not have a pleasant texture due to overcooked pasta and a gluggy sauce with too much cream and not enough yolk. The dessert more than makes up for this disappointment. The chef here makes Crème Caramel (Rs 150)  without egg or gelatin and yet creates a perfect pudding with a clean taste.

 

With a perfect pizza crust that makes everything taste good, and the low prices, I wish this place well. I certainly will go back.
