The quest for the holy pizza

Since arriving in Europe Jeni and I have had pizza in every city we have visited. Jeni is on the quest for the perfect Margarita pizza, that is one with real tomato, basil and mozzarella.

In Berlin, the pizzas were cheap - €2, but the toppings were lackluster.

In Prague we found a nice restaurant where the pizzas were huge, but the bases were wafer thin and the margarita was just burnt chesse.

The first pizza we had in Vienna was huge and cheap, only €2.50, but again the margarita was again only chesse (although the mushroom pizza tasted good).

Tonight after uploading the photos in the previous post, we headed to the local pub/italian pizzeria for dinner. While Jeni ordered marinara spaghetti, i ordered bolognese thinking it was with pasta, but instead a huge pizza came out. All I can say tho is WOW. It was the best pizza I have ever had! We didn't get the margarita - Jeni didn't want two disappointments in one day, so the quest still remains.

All I can say now is I can't wait until Italy. If an Austrian-Italian family can make pizza that good, Italy will be bellissimo! We will keep you updated on Jeni's pizza quest.
