The final verdict on pizza

I am literally surviving on pizza since morning! It started yesterday when we were coming back from a shadi. We grabbed a midnight deal from Pizza Hut. It was almost 2:00 am, we were so hungry and stopped at the first food place we saw. Now I don't need to give details about the pizza since all of us know how PH tastes like: good on the go, but that's it.


For lunch I was supposed to meet some friends at Bistro 76 (Dolmen City). We ordered some chicken dishes, a lasagne and their Four Season's and Margarita pizzas. The pizzas left me so totally impressed! They were hand tossed, thin crusts, perfectly done with crispy edges. The toppings were fresh and the cheese was abundant and melting in the mouth. A must must try for pizza lovers!  Loved the artistically done pizza box; reminiscent of a Paris bistro :)

Choc Bounty Cake
The lasagne and Mediterranean chicken were both flavourful and a hit among the chicken lovers. Our little friend Rayan ordered a slice of Chocolate Bounty Cake that looked delish with a layer of coconut in between chocolate. I sneaked a bite from his plate and couldn't stop myself from having more so sneaked a few more :) It was just like Bounty itself. Good place for a late Sunday lunch with excellent pizza. 


Sundays are always overloaded. So more pizza was served at a small gathering for friends at dinner. Now here is the interesting bit, after going through all the ravings about Pizzo and their famous thin crusts, we decided to give it a shot. We went for the black pepper salami and veg thin crust ones and baffalo chicken and chicken tikka in thick crust. They arrived in about 40 minutes. Boxes were nice and hot. But the pizzas were way too salty! I could only taste salt and more salt. The crust was also not that crisp either. Thick crust ones were satisfactory and far better.

Final verdict for day: If you want a freshly made, hand tossed pizza with customised toppings go for Bistro 76!
