Margherita?!?


As I've said in this blog before and will say again here, I not only love pizza to such an extent that I'd gladly eat at least a slice a day, but I consider myself a bit of an enthusiast, they way a sports card collector may consider themselves one. So, it was about time that we try some Southeast Asian pizza. We went to FCC (don't recall what this stands for, maybe something like the Foreign Correspondents Cabana - it had something to do with foreign correspondents, but I don't recall and didn't buy a shirt) because they were rumored to have the best pizza in town and cook it in a wood-fired brick oven, which I believe to be true. We ordered margherita pizzas all around and though they did not arrive the same as other margherita pizzas I've had, namely with freshly chopped basil and freshly sliced tomatoes uncooked across the top, they were very good. I do prefer my pizza buy the slice for reasons I'm not going to discuss here other than to say, it is rarely soggy, but this pizza wasn't soggy either and though it lacked much crust it was very good and my mouth waters just looking at the picture now. I miss good pizza second only to family and friends. I have written that the pizza was worth 3 forks, but looking at it now I'm going to give it 3.5 forks. How generous?
