First, the Garlic Prawn Pizza.  

At Pastaria Abate, the sourdough is made in-house. The pizza is assembled with fresh ingredients on order, on 48-hour rested sourdough, and freshly baked in their top of the line Moretti Forni oven.

There was a waft of garlic aroma when I lifted the flap of the pizza box. The 12-inch pizza was shoehorned into the paper box which kept it warm for the journey between Pastaria Abate and my home.

I like my pizza crust to have lots of different textures, so I love it that Pastaria Abate's crust is thin in the middle while thick at the rim. The thin middle is slightly crisp-chewy while the thick bubble blistered rim is slightly pillowy-chewy. The pizza lost a bit of crispness in transit, especially the thin middle. A few minutes in a pre-heated toaster would probably help but we were fine eating it straight out of the box.

The pizza crust is slathered with San Marzano tomato sauce, topped with Mozzarella cheese, garlic, studded with peeled fresh prawns (we counted 10 forefinger size crustaceans), and dressed with EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) and rocket (greens).

This pizza is good - above the savoury-salty, tangy, sweet base, we were able to discern the crustacean sweetness in the soft-tender meat of the fresh prawns. Not overly greasy at all.

Capricciosa Pizza is the Italian equivalent of "chap chai" or mixed dishes in Chinese. It is also known as the "clean the fridge" pizza because it is topped with random mix of ingredients over a plain Margarita pizza. But, of course, every Italian pizzeria have their own recipe of what is in the "chap chai" in their Capricciosa pizza.

At Pastaria Abate, there's San Marzano tomato sauce, Mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, mushroom, ham, artichoke, olives, etc.

The Capricciosa Pizza is a carnival of savoury-salty, sweet and subtle tangy flavours with a mix of soft-tender, crisp-chewy textures. Lots of mushroom and artichoke, so the topping is quite juicy (making the middle crust wet and floppy). Lots of flavours but not too greasy at all.

Pastaria Abate have so many more pizzas we can try. We've tried several during previous visits and have always enjoyed them, especially when they come fresh and piping hot out of the oven.

 

Portobello Fries (price $12.80). Battered fresh portobello mushroom strips and wedges deep fried till golden brown crisp-chewy.
