Pizza for brunch
Last month, I was eating a pizza somewhere on a patio Rome. However, the reality of the present situation is I'm not on vacation anymore, and I need to reconcile the fact that I'm back in Sacramento with a newfound craving to eat pizza and drink beer for lunch every day. Well, thanks to Hot Italian (1627 16th Street), I can now at least eat authentic Italian-style pizza and have a beer for brunch on weekends. Recently, I ordered a pretty amazing pizza off the brunch menu that very closely resembled one I ate in Italy: The Nibali—to which I added the suggested prosciutto di Parma—features eggs, mushrooms, spinach, mozzarella, crescenza cheese and Bariani truffle oil. I recommend asking for the eggs to be cooked over easy rather than scrambled just to make it seem a little more Roman. A presto, springtime brunch.
