My thoughts:
I know that I've blogged about Pizzaiolo a number of times now, but I really love Pizzaiolo :P My friends and I planned a day to the beach and collectively decided that Pizzaiolo would be the perfect snack/lunch food. And because there were four of us, we ordered four slices, each with a different topping ($3.99 per slice, or 1/4 pizza). We had:
Gianna Ola - pepperoni, fresh mushrooms, real bacon, mozzarella and tomato sauce. Salty. Not a fan of meat on my pizza.
Sicilian - bacon, Italian sausage, red onions, mozzarella and tomato sauce. Same comment as above.
Fredo - Yukon Gold potatoes, olive oil, rosemary and oregano. If you read my old posts on Pizzaiolo, I mentioned that the golden slices of potato arranged in a neat annular order looked really good and that I wanted to try it. I finally tried it today, and it was so dry and bland!
Spinotta (whole wheat) - fresh spinach, herbed tomatoes, ricotta cheese, mozzarella, parmigiano, olive oil and oregano. Same delicious toppings as the non-whole wheat version, but this crust was definitely very dry.
Can you guess which one I ordered? ;) If you guessed Spinotta, you are correct! I think I have done enough experimenting now to say with affirmation that Spinotta (the non-whole wheat version) is my favourite!
