Welcome to the Thai pizza, spiked with lemongrass and topped with coconut scrapings and the ubiquitous Thai chillies. Who says that mozzarella is the only way to go in the pizza lexicon? At Pizza Company, tradition meets innovation ushering a fresh taste and unique flavours. That's not to say that staple favourites are ignored - they are all there and they are all yummy.

Lore and Innovation

Pizza lore is rife with tales of wood fired ovens, creamy Mozzarella, plum tomatoes and freshly picked Mediterranean herbs. At the Pizza Company vision takes on a different tinge as the pizza takes shape in a totally different incarnation. You blend in exotic flavours, unusual toppings on the good old grandma's secret recipe of pizza dough and what have you got? A Thai pizza… Replete with lemongrass flavours wafting across the pizza cutter, the inevitable Thai chillies, coconut scrapings and prawns. "And it's got a Thai name - Tom Yun Kung' pizza", smiles Roshan Bandara, Director of Operations. This is the Pizza Company's signature pizza and a top favourite with customers across all outlets in Dubai. Apart from the freshest and the best ingredients that go into making it, there's a substantial proportion of creativity too. Because the Pizza Company staunchly stands by its policy of saying no to processed ingredients, it also says yes to innovation and novelty. And that is actually the secret to this chain's success.

 

 

Innovation and tradition go hand in hand at the Pizza Company with its full menu of Italian staples such as fresh pastas, salads and breads to suit every palate. However, why customers prefer the Pizza Company over other similar restaurants is altogether a different matter. It is because the pizza is customised to individual tastes. In addition, all pastas are all made in house, so the whole process works towards the end result of a happy customer getting exactly what they want.

Starters & Breads

 

In the starter menu, it's hard to choose between the delicious stuffed calamari and lightly fried succulent squid. For stronger flavours you might want to try a platter of spicy chicken wings and crisp potato wedges. "An unusual spin-off of the fusion menu has been that diners have imbibed the spirit of adventure and experimentation. They come in for the traditional Italian foods and end up mixing flavours. The Asian twist to our menu has actually educated customer tastes".

 

Breaking bread gets a whole new dimension at the Pizza Company - Especially the variety with turkey and cheese twists. With a light flaky texture and chunks of smoked turkey it is enriched with 100 per cent pure milk mozzarella. That's some cheese with oomph…

Pasta & Unique Flavours

 

 

The pasta station faces the main entrance of the Al Dhiyafa outlet and you can pick and choose your ingredients and add or subtract a few handfuls and watch your dream pasta taking shape right in front of you.

 

Traditional Italian dishes such as spaghetti with spicy tuna and olive or penne with broccoli and shrimp are light and infused with bursts of refreshing flavours.

 

Or you can opt for the stuffed cannelloni with Parmesan cheese in black pepper and tomato sauce. Better still; try the threecheese tortellini in pesto and cream sauce.

 

"The Pizza Company has rolled out some unique flavours such as the Quatro Fromaggio, the four cheese special, Tropical Prawn Pizza or the ultra varied Super Supreme - Diners love them all and the mega sizes too".
