Have you discovered Michal Angelo????


See how our minds jump to conclusions. I used to pass this pizza parlour on the Nawala Rajagiriya road quite frequently but never gave it a second glance because I never thought a pizza place worth its salt would situate itself in this kind of neighborhood. But suddenly I began to hear whispers of how good they were and when a colleague of mine who is absolutely critical of food started waxing eloquent about how nice the pizzas were I had to give it a try.
I must confess I was not disappointed.
The pizzas were quite good. In fact my kids were over the moon with the cheese lovers pizza. Well I must confess I was too. It was the first time I have enjoyed a completely cheese pizza.
Apparently the owner of this place is the ex of the Italian lady who runs Regina Margherita. Though he is of Sri Lankan descent he seems to have mastered the art of making pizza better than an Italian. He is also quite a genial chap though he looks quite unapproachable at first. He was generous enough to give me some salad thing which was really nice. According to him the best way to enjoy Michal Angelo’s pizza is to dine in at their tiny restaurant because you can enjoy it straight out of their wood fired oven with their fresh condiments. Hmmm that’s what I am going to do next!
For those who are interested they do deliver on 0722612612 but they are yet to accept credit cards.

I kept going there at odd times and pounding on their door until they thoughtfully posted a sign that it was open only after 5 pm...

I agree though, it is great to sit at those quaint little tables and sniff at the aromas of melting cheese and fresh baked dough, and dig into the succulent slices!

Yet to try the 4 cheese pizza...

Actually not much impressed with the pasta... I ordered a carbonara that was swimming in what looked suspiciously like completely raw egg... euw.
