Pizza Brava @ Desa Sri Hartamas

That time of the week again! The original plan was to head for Korean but I'd just remembered that I had a 10km run to do the following morning and experience has taught me that spicy food and running do not go hand in hand. But carbs is definitely not a problem so off we went to Pizza Brava for some pizza and pasta.

Where the wood fire pizza is made right at the front of the restaurant.

It's a nice, open kitchen concept where the pizza is made right where you can see it. Didn't actually realise this until we noticed the pizza being served coming from the front of the restaurant. We were also pretty fascinated with the Vespas!

Vespas!

The dishes plated pretty quickly. The Mozzarella in Carrozza - deep fried breaded mozzarella was delicious! Coupled very nicely with the pizzaiola sauce, which was pretty much a wholesome tomato-based goodness.

Then, the pizza! The Milano - perfectly baked thin-crusted pizza topped with tomatoes, cheese, beef pepperoni, turkey ham (Yes, turkey. First thing Bravo noticed was how halal the restaurant was), and chillies. Couldn't consume this fast enough. Now I'm not usually a fan of thin crust but this sufficiently won me over, like the one at Verona Trattoria did before.

Finally, the Lasagna di Carne. A classic beef lasagna, this was a huge disappointment. There was just something missing. To Bravo, the mince was too chewy. As for me, it was strangely bitter. Never again.

Dessert, anyone? Of course.

Super rich and creamy, the Panna Cotta con Pesca was yummy. Just a tad too creamy for my liking, which led to Bravo almost overdosing on it haha..

Last but not least, the Creme Brulee. The crisp layer of caramel was just the perfect match for the custard. Who knew a small cup could pack such a delightful dessert.

Verdict: Will be back for the pizza and dessert!
