Los Angeles, California - Pizzeria Mozza2go. This is a hard post to make, as I’m not sure how to explain my admiration for the people involved in making these pizzas. For one, Batali & Bastianich’s Westchester spot Tarry Lodge is one of my favorite / most frequented restaurant. I had read books and articles and food porn blogs on Nancy Silverton’s pizza, even read several variations of her dough recipes. I made reservations a month ago to eat at Osteria Mozza, but had to cancel them last minute (the only available RSVP was 10:00PM at night..) So when I realized I could get her pizza delivered to me, I sure as fuck set my alarm to wake up at the exact moment I could place an order. I ordered a standard Margarita, and a goat cheese, scallion, garlic & leeks pie. The margarita slice was unreal. Honestly - it taps straight into my nostalgic subconscious. The simple flavor of sans marzano, and fresh mozz. Shit is the likes of what I would ask for at my death bed. The crust is the best I’ve ever had. Her recipe calls for part unbleached bread, rye flour, and wheat germ - which is something I never do. The chew, and blistering char marks - holy moly. Will most likely test the waters with this when I get home. The leek pie was also amazing. Toppings were all some of my favorite (minus the bacon..) - but slapping on the allium family to a pie is heaven sent. All together I spent 45 dollars (pizza, delivery, tip). I’m officially broke, but officially happy. Will probably write about this again.
