Peperoni Pizzeria (Zion)

@peperonipizzeria is probably my go to pizza place right now. Their pizza crusts are simply stellar, and their toppings are topnotch. Better yet, they’re actually amazingly affordable too. Don’t believe me? Well, the prosecution would like to present the evidence here.⠀

This, your honour, is a twelve inch half & half ‘Speciale’ pizza that’s priced at $30++. That’s right, it’s a premium pizza, and the Burrata & Prosciutto toppings share the perfect pizza crust that’s lovingly slathered with tangy tomato sauce with the Carne option. The Carne, as you may have guessed, is Peperoni’s twist on the timeless meat lovers’ pizza, and the Carne has pork meatballs, bacon & pepperoni on top of a luscious layer of melted mozzarella cheese. Marvellous meat, magnificent mozzarella, and titillating tomato sauce on top of a tremendous thin crust pie is always a flawless win, and Peperoni comes through with the gargantuan W.⠀
⠀
As for the burrata & prosciutto...dude, do I really need to elucidate this any further? The same sublime sauce & melted mozza base now houses confit tomatoes, a generous helping of salty, piquant Parma ham, and colossal chunks of beautiful burrata. It’s creamy, cheesy, tangy, salty, and utterly umami, and that crisp dough base is the cherry on (or below in this case) the cake.⠀

None y’all gonna get a pizza this. I ain’t sharing, these peerless pies are way too transcendent to be shared. Get your own & leave me alone.⠀

Nicely deep-fried Calamari coated with a light crisp and airy batter. A good squeeze of lemon offsets the greasiness.

Half frutti di mare and half quattro formaggi on a thin thin crust. Seafood part had quite a fair bit of clams and squid, and the outer side is simple cheesy goodness. I do miss their salmon pizza that had been dropped off the menu.

Warm chocolate cake with a gooey bittersweet chocolate centre. just the right amount of sweetness paired with the vanilla ice cream. so so good! but you gotta share this 🤤

these are deep fried risotto balls w the fillings inside) — these were mediocre as well, cldnt rly taste the filling (or what it was for that matter) it was just a lil ball of fried carbs but it was still kinda decent i guess ~~~

i had the white chicken truffle which consisted of chicken roulade, onions, baby spinach and black truffle dressing and JK had the carne (crumbled meatballs, bacon, pepperoni and mozzy) — tbh it was underwhelming and we were slightly bummed that they discontinued our fav bacon mille :(

the sauce was spread out rly thin and there was way too much plain dough (as much as i love the crust) as u can tell from the picture + the chicken was unseasoned and the onions were chunky and not cooked down! JK’s one tasted btr imo but both were still yummy enough!! we just expected more cuz it used to be so much btr
