Peperoni Pizzeria @ Zion

i cant believe an italian is working in the kitchen......

the food is not tasty and even not generous....

Peperoni has found yet another neighbourhood niche that is popular with expatriates, and that is being near the Great World City area.

Despite its slight dim light setting, a look around the restaurant verifies that it is indeed a casual diner, with speedy wait staff moving around to ensure quick and efficient service.

At a recent visit, I started with the Calamari ($14), which was average at best, with some of the squid being a little over-done. Also, it was served quite awhile after leaving the pan, so parts of the batter were a little tough.

From the pasta menu I tried the Vongole with Angel Hair ($22). This was a well-executed dish with a strong clam essence in the limited broth that is soaked by the noodles.

I also tried the Seafood Risotto ($26), which I found to be too rich and creamy caused by the excessive use of tomato and cheese.

From the pizza menu I tried the Med Manzo ($19), a beef pizza with good quality tender pieces of beef done medium and cheese which would suit well with the Singaporean palette. As pizzas are prepared a la minute, one should be prepared to wait a little for the food.

Finally, ended the meal with a Tiramisu ($11). The version served here has a good balance of dryness and wetness.

Overall, it was a pleasant dining experience and one should expect a slightly above average fare.

Wild rocket leaves and parmesan cheese shavings perched atop generous portions of parma ham, on thin crispy pizza base.  Cheerful and helpful service as well.
