pizza libretto

{ontario prosciutto}

{margherita d.o.p}

{cremini mushroom}

(this was my pizza, i don't know if i'll have the guts to try a different pizza knowing how delicious this one was!)

so i had a life changing experience on the weekend... i ate at pizza libretto on ossington. they make real neapolitan pizza and it is to die for! i'm not usually a big pizza fan, the chewy dough and processed cheese does nothing for me. but this pizza... paper thin, with poufy light crust (the pizza actually only goes in the oven for 90 seconds!) combined with fresh, simple ingredients, topped with fresh mozarella - you can actually choose between "fiore di latte" or "di bufala".. ohmygoodness, my mouth is watering just thinking about it!

forgive the blackberry pictures but i hope i have successfully somehow convinced you to make the trip to pizza libretto!

warning: i don't think there's ever a time when you go to this restaurant and there's not a wait... we went and put our name on the wait list, then drove down to the drake for drinks and a sushi appetizer (the sushi chef from blowfish works there on weekends... i mean, this was like the best night ever!).. and then the hostess from pizza libretto calls your cell phone when they have a table ready!

so plan on a bit of a wait, but i PROMISE, it is totally, completely worth it!
