We came here late after watching Star Wars, what better way to drown our sorrows and discuss everything wrong with the movie than over some quality pizza and beer! It was still really really hot and we were given a table outside, it wasn’t any better inside as you could feel the heat from the wood fired pizza oven.
As it was already late we just wanted some pizzas to share rather than our usual multi-course meal. Pizzas arrived in quick succession after the kitchen fulfilled multiple takeaway orders. Some nice burnt blistering and char on the bottom gave it a nice bitter taste to the dough, texturally the centre of the pizza didn’t hold its shape as well when being held but the dough was wonderfully chewy you wouldn’t want to throw away the crust, it was my favourite part.
We got their classic margherita, just something I order if I’m overwhelmed with choice and is your standard pizza type to compare to other pizzerias. What really stood out to me other than the dough was the San Marzano tomatoes used, imported from Italy. They were wonderfully juicy and sweet with little acidity. My favourite pizza combination that night was the “Forget About It”, artichoke, nice fatty pancetta, cavolo nero (kale) and a duo of cheeses, fior di latte and taleggio. Not far behind was their Pork and Porcini, pork sausage and porcini mushrooms topped with some peppery bitter rocket. Again a pairing of cheeses, mascarpone and parmigiano.
The waitress was super friendly and conversed with us as well as other customers. The shop is small so if you plan to dine in, I suggest a reservation. Conveniently located to the train station so you can make a quick exit if needed.
Boss Pizzeria, what a place! The restaurant hosted some foodies to try out the menu and as soon as I saw pizza, I was there!. The restaurant is right beside Camberwell station, great for public transport customers like myself. It was a pretty wet and chilly evening sitting outside but there were heaters to warm us up as the restaurant is not very big. One thing I loved about the indoor area was being able to see the open pizza cooker.
