Viene col mangiare, or "appetite comes with eating". Very apt for this gorgeous pizza which I did not expect to like to the degree I did. The strikingly coloured slices of purple potato par-cooked so that they still retained a slight crunch were definitely a point of interest, but what really got me coming back for more were the juicy handmade sausage chunks bursting with spice and porky goodness. With a base of mozarella and gorgonzola cheeses, this is one for lovers of strongly flavoured white pizzas.

Taste: 4/5
I would not have ordered this from the menu had I not been strongly encouraged by a friend... But as always, she didn't steer me wrong... Chef makes the juicy sausage in house and the dough is proofed for something like 2 days! Combined with a slightly stinky cheese and the bitterness of the arugula, it was like a party for my palate!
Hmm... we prolly dont see any stone mills locally. A stone mill is used for grinding wheat or other grains. Millstones comes in pairs. The base or bedstone is stationary. Above the bedstone is the turning runner stone which actually does the grinding. Very tedious process!

This is Sausages and Potatoes pizza. The thin crispy crust is in itself quite tasty. In fact I dont mind eating it on its own. Garnished with mozarella and gorganzola cheese, homemade sausage and thinly sliced purple potatoes. This was a fine balance of saltyness from the sausages and cheeses, a subtle sweetness from the potatoes and finally the richness is toned down by the bitterness of rockets. My motto for eating pizza is "less is more". This fit the bill literally cos it was not overpowered by many ingredients as one might find in other pizzas. And the color is so purplish pretty.

An interesting combination we had for the night was Sausage & Potatoes ($34) - not for the carb-watching diet. Pretty colours and the thinly-sliced potatoes gave an interesting crunch but didn't do much flavours-wise. Enter the rich mozzarella & gorgonzola cheese that was pretty strong (reminded me of blue cheese 🤤); unsurprisingly the 100yo family traditional recipe of the head chef resulted in juicy homemade sausages which was delishly seasoned and SO GOOD.

Initially, I wondered why anyone would stick potatoes on a pizza, but after walloping this here sausage & potato pizza, I ain't asking anymore questions. Mainly because I'm stuffing myself full with this piquant pizza, but that's another story for another time.
Mozzarella and Gorgonzola cheese joins forces with Atmastel's house-made sausage that's done according to head chef Andrea Tarini's 150 year old recipe that belonged to his grandmother, and thinly sliced purple potatoes atop Atmastel's awe inspiring pizza base, before everyone takes cover under the foliage of peppery rocket leaves.
It's utterly satisfying, with the warm, stretchy cheese providing the richness while the sausage brings a small hit of spice, alongside its delectable juicy meatiness and savory flavors. The surprisingly palatable purple potatoes fit right in with its companions, adding an extra, welcome starchy density while bringing along its charmingly crunchy qualities.
Well, I think I've just given myself major cravings for Atmastel's sterling sausage and potato pizzas. And there's only one place to sort out that particular craving.
Many thanks to Tiffany of Atmastel for being such a lovely host, and to Veronica for the invite!
The good kind, if you know what I mean. Having had their sausages here before in the pastas (which was amazing) I knew how good they are. Just didn't know how they would go with potatoes. Turns out the purple potatoes are thinly sliced and with Gorgonzola cheese and rocket, this pizza was really delicious! Definitely something I would order again!

Sausage & Potatoes ($34)
This pizza is the prettiest of the 5 I can’t even… Why so pretty? Because @atmastelsg laid finely sliced purple potatoes onto the Mozzarella and Gorgonzola cheese amongst juicy homemade sausage chunks then tried to playfully hide it under a bed of Rocket Salad. I loved the texture of the purple potatoes, still retaining their crunchiness and that homemade sausage, all I want to say is just pick the slice with the most chunks! My only gripe about the pizza if I had to nitpick, was that I am not a fan of smelly cheese in general so I wouldn’t miss the presence of the Gorgonzola.

Asking me to choose a favourite from the five different pizzas made by Pizza Head Chef @matteofabbian for us to try, is like asking a mother to pick her favourite child. It's simply not possible.
Each was fabulous in its own way, but they all shared a common trait: a dough made with whole wheat, stone-milled flour that's been proofed for 48 hours. This gave rise to an absolute dream of a crust that's light but chewy, and boasting a lovely crisp edge. Such quality means only the tastiest premium ingredients deserve to be laid upon it.
The one above is Atmastel's new "Sausage & Potatoes Pizza". To be honest, it was nothing like what I'd anticipated, but I mean that in a very good way.
The housemade sausage is from a 150-year-old recipe belonging to the Head Chef @andreatarini's grandmother. It came in the form of irregular balls of ground meat that were fresh-tasting and deliciously seasoned. To accompany it, Pizza Head Chef @matteofabbian chose to use subtly crunchy slices of the prettiest dried purple potatoes, fresh arugula, mozzarella and gorgonzola cheese, which I thought, brought brilliant results.
If your tastebuds lean towards stronger flavours, this would be a great pizza to try.
Tried five pizzas here today, and this one took me by surprise as my favourite.
Thought it would be pretty jelat, but the mozzarella & Gorgonzola cheese, thinly layered purple potato, fragrant homemade sausages and rocket to cut through the heaviness had me chomping through it in no time.
You should take advantage of their Happy Hour deals! 🍻Get a bucket of beers ($40~$50) and you can get one of their pizzas at half price! 🙌
