We were invited to a dinner gathering at a friend's house tonight. This is one of little nugget's closest friend from his pre-nursery days, Not long ago, he and his parents moved to a neighborhood between Kowloon City and To Kwa Wan, and have been raving about its vibrant dining scene. I, for one, have been more than curious about the area's "melting pot" dining culture as well. So, I was all too happy to join the party.
The host has prepared some nice, homemade dishes for all of us. And for the sake of exploring the area's dining scene, some of us went down to get some take-away food so we could enjoy a wider variety of dishes.
We wound up stopping by Mamma Mia! Pizzeria in Kowloon City for some take-away pizza. Mamma Mia! was one of the many restaurants run by Castelo Concepts who operates a number of restaurant brands in the city, including Pepperoni's in Sai Kung, their flagship restaurant opened in 1992.
Pepperoni (辣肉腸) – Always a popular choice for the kids. Little guy loves it thanks to the spicy kick from the pepperoni. I thought the dough was pretty nice and it was helped out by the nice topping of Mozzarella and tomato sauce.
Hawaiian (夏威夷) – Surprisingly, the less popular choice tonight so I ended up with a slice when everyone decided to pass. This was, in my opinion, equally tasty comparing to the Pepperoni pizza. The Mortadella, pineapple and Thousand Islands sauce were a timeless combination but I guess the kids all wanted pepperoni tonight.
We didn't get to spend too much time on the streets of Kowloon City since we wanted to return with the pizza while they were still piping hot. It certainly looks like that we are going downstairs again for our dessert after dinner!
