Pizza Express, Ambience Mall, Gurgaon
To celebrate 50 years of Pizza Express, the guys from the Pizza express at Ambience Mall, Gurgaon organised a fun culinary session followed by a tasting session for its Bloggers. The evening began with each of us donning chefs hats and the chefs tips on how to make the perfect pizza. The chefs began with the details of what the base of the pizza is made of and how it must be prepared correctly. After demonstrating how the base should be rolled out, how to add the pizza sauce and arrange the toppings, we were given balls of dough to make our own pizza!
In teams of 4, we rolled the dough as the chef taught us and our base was ready! We added a dollop of the tomato sauce that is specially imported from Italy. The chef has emphasised that if we add too much of the tomato sauce, the base would become soggy and would not be crispy. So we made sure that we added just the right amount of sauce for the pizza to be nice and crispy. We then topped the pizza with everything that we could find- yellow bell pepper, red bell pepper, mushrooms, chicken, olives, onions, jalapeno and a whole lotta cheese! We then seasoned it with salt , pepper and oregano and then the pizza was sent away to be cooked in the oven.
While we waited for the pizza to be cooked, we were served each and every one of the pasta dishes on the Pizza Express Menu.
Our favourites in the non veg pasta were the Chicken pollo Arrabbiata and the Chicken Tagliatelle Pollo Bolognese. These two dishes were delicious and spicy and definitely hit the spot.
The well seasoned and delectable veg Penne Con Peppadew and the veg Pollo Pesto Baked were the vegetarian favourites.
By this time, our pizza was ready! We could not wait to see the results of our hard work. The Pizza looked wonderful and tasted heavenly! Oh Yum!
For dessert we tried the banoffee pie, cheesecake and chocolate fudge cake. The cheesecake was creamy and light and the banoffee pie was flavourful, dense and delicious. The chocolate fudge cake was dry and did not live up to its name.
The evening ended with one of the Pizza Express representatives showing us his skills of balancing the dough base with the background score of "Dhoom Machale"
