Ladro

14th January 2011
Perhaps the easiest restaurant to tick off the list, given the take away option and the nature of the signature food (pizza). Amongst some of the more extravagant options, this seemed an unusual option for the Good Food Guide. A pizza restaurant with some additional options but the quality of the pizza is the thing that stands out.

I ordered the Gamberi E Spinaci pizza. Delightfully cooked prawns in a light butter with a hint of lemon zest combined with spinach and a generous helping of chilli to give it a kick and some added flavour. A thin base, crisp around the edges but fairly soft and easy to tear. As the pizza was not sliced, the easy to tear was a requirement as it was not eaten at home.

Wonderfully flavourful and well cooked the meal was well worthy of a visit and would definitely consider a return trip to Ladro, possibly for a full range of courses. I'm still unsure if a restaurant with the speciality being Pizza is worthy of a Hat but if any would be Ladro was be at the top.
