Viva Italia @ Amici

I've heard people raving about Amici for quite some time now so I finally went today to check out what all the hype is about. Now I know why. It's an Italian restaurant specializing in pizza, pasta, panini, and gelato. It's actually self service where you have to pay as you order and get your own utensils and condiments. Their pizza's are oven baked and it's behind a glass wall where it's on display for everyone to see. The whole feel and atmosphere of the place is very casual.

The condiments area



Ceasear Salad Php 140.00 - very simple, no fuss salad



Ai Quattro Formaggi Php 290.00 - 4 cheese oven baked pizza
Now this is what you call pizza! Crust is crisp yet chewy because of all the cheese with real tomato sauce (not like the canned tomato sauce) and not so heavy on the stomach



Gelato Display Php 45.00-50.00/scoop (depending on the flavor)
I absolutely love this! The ice cream was just so creamy and full of flavor. I ordered the Sansrival and it tasted just like the cake but with more cream. If I was one of those lucky ones born with a super fast metabolism, I probably would have ordered all the flavors. Everything just seemed so tempting!

I did not have the chance to try the panini or pasta dishes but based on the pizza and gelato, it was "Simply Scrumptious!" just like what it says on their brochure.
