@fernandospizzasg pizza crusts are remarkable, with a delicately thin crust that still retains some chew to give your jaw the satisfaction of a decent workout, but their toppings might just top it.

If the Bleecker is too unconventional for you, you’ll be pleased to know that the Grilled BBQ Chicken ($23.50) is equally excellent. Lots of chicken top this pizza along with more julienned red bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, pineapple and most deliciously of all, the sweetest sautéed onions ever. Even though more tangy barbecue sauce would’ve been better, the Grilled BBQ Chicken pizza was still outstanding due to the sweetness of the sautéed onions being the perfect foil to the mildly savoury chicken.⠀

Fernando’s has a dizzying array of pizza options, which definitely calls for many more return trips in the near future.

@fernandospizzasg pizza crusts are remarkable, with a delicately thin crust that still retains some chew to give your jaw the satisfaction of a decent workout, but their toppings might just top it. Their most innovative pizza is probably the peculiarly named A Slice Of Bleecker ($27), which has a mozzarella base topped with country ham, julienned bell peppers, roasted garlic, pistachios, and lubricated by pistachio cream & cream cheese.⠀
⠀
The pistachios in both original & cream form added their trademark nutty, earthy savouriness to the pizza, and the whole pistachios added a hard counterpoint to the other soft elements of the pizza. The cream cheese was extra lube, and added extra cheesiness, while the country ham was just vibing there. A weird pizza combo for sure, but it works well.⠀

So the oddest thing happened at the pizza party last week, we ordered four pizzas along with a bunch of chicken wings & fries from the newly opened @fernandospizzasg. However, the delivery guy pulled a David Copperfield & disappeared, so we called Fernando’s to check what had happened to our pizzas. They apologised for the inconvenience, and immediately started baking a fresh order for us. Long story short, first delivery guy appears out of the ether & delivers our pizzas, and second pizza guy drops off even more pizzas. We basically got a fifty percent discount on these piquant pizzas, and God’s Plan started playing in the background.⠀
⠀
Fernando’s square 12x12 inch pies are done in an interesting fusion of Italian & New York style. Light, thin crust with moderately chewy edges just like NY, but the restrained amount of cheese & sauce of the Italian. If you need more protein power, the Carnivore’s Delight ($26) is guaranteed to dazzle. The same tantalisingly thin & chewy pizza dough is slathered with a moreish marinara, layered with mozzarella, generously loaded with pepperoni, bacon, spicy sausage & more mushrooms, and aromatised by sprigs of rosemary & basil. All that savoury, delectable meat worked in concert to produce a mouthwatering marvel, and the pizza crust topped with mozzarella & marinara was the perfect delivery vehicle for it.⠀

Head Chef Fernando used to be the pizza maestro at Zazz Pizza, which explains why these pizzas have so much pizzaz to them. All pizza is good pizza, but Fernando’s is sublime.

The big sausage pizza of the night was Mario’s Mushroom Kingdom ($27), a white sauce based pizza loaded with roasted seasonal shrooms, chicken sausages, sautéed shallots & mozzarella. Most shroom pies only have shrooms & cheese on them, so fair play to Fernando’s for making this one a more substantial & satisfying pizza with the delicious chicken sausages. All those savoury & undeniably umami toppings on the thin, slightly chewy yet light pizza crust makes for a majestic medley of pizza perfection.
