The History of Pizza

Pizza is a favorite dish of many people worldwide, from college students and singles who shun cooking to busy parents who want a quick and easy dinner that kids of all ages will definitely eat. It’s easy to understand why pizza is so popular when you consider that its essential ingredients have nearly always been available to people, and those ingredients have always been staples. Luckily, today you don’t have to grind the grains to make flour or milk a goat to make cheese. Delivery pizza specials are easy to find whenever you have a craving. Here’s a brief history of this favorite dish.

S&R New York Style Hawaiian Pizza and Birthday Cakes

My sister, me and my kids went to S&R Alabang last night to grab a few groceries. My son was quite hungry so we ate at the food station first. Hawaiian pizza is his favorite so I was quite worried about whether he would like the S&R pizza because I know they don't have Hawaiian. But alas! By some miracle, there is now!

We were so excited to try it and so we ordered a whole box for take out & a slice for my son for dine-in.
Price: P589 for the whole box /  P99 per slice

New York pizza indeed with pineapples and quite a generous amount of bacon strips (not bits). The only difference between the typical Hawaiian pizza and this one is that this doesn't have ham. They used bacon instead of ham which is all right with me. The whole pizza did not last until midnight when we went home. It's really good. 

We also ordered a strawberry smoothie worth P99.
 Big serving and very yummy, too.

Now, that we're stuffed, we decided to finally do some groceries. While we were strolling around, I found these cute ready-made birthday cakes at reasonable prizes! I just thought I'd share it for you to see.

Birthday cakes on the go! :D

I like this fiesta-themed birthday cake :) 

This multi colored air balloon looks so nice, too :) 

Only P419.95!

S&R has lovely Christmas decors and gifts already available for sale. 

So that's the highlight of our trip to S&R Alabang. They also have some imported candies, chocolates, and even cookies specially made for Halloween! So I do recommend you visit the place if you have the time. If you're from the south and if you only want to eat their pizza, their food store is also available in Festival Mall, Alabang so you can order their delicious New York style pizzas there.  

Reminder: S&R requires membership before doing any groceries so you need to become a member and pay the P700 membership fee.

Hyper Knox Pizza

Did you ever get the feeling that you don't feel like eating pizzas from pizza giants like Shakey's and Pizza Hut, but you're still craving for some pizza? Well, I have and Hyper Knox pizza has really hit the spot. Their pizzas are actually similar to New York style pizzas so the size of the dough is in the middle of thin and thick which is exactly what I wanted.

 

Pre-Valentine Lunch at Razzzo Bistro

Yesterday, my sister treated the whole family to lunch at Razzzo Bistro in BF Homes, Paranaque because she purchased groupon vouchers. I do see Razzzo quite often whenever we pass by Aguirre Avenue, but the resto did not appeal to me on the outside. I thought it was a bar or a gimmick place, but when we came inside, I was surprised to see how beautiful and elegant the interior was. The place was so cozy and it can be a place where you can bring your date out to dinner.

Comfortable chairs and nice tables

More tables and cozy chairs :) 

We even noticed a projector at the top portion of this picture. 

I think you can even reserve the place for receptions and other events. 

Green tea lychee smoothie, blue lemonade, and a peach smoothie (P75 each) 

My sisters loved their smoothies.

Cold Chocolate (P75).

It tasted like Chocquick or Choco Lava. I even saw some choco powder floating on the drink that didn't dissolve. 

Sampler 2: Pizza, Pasta, and Mozzarella Sticks w/ blue lemonade (P199)

This is what I ordered and I loved everything that's on my plate. Pizza was freshly cooked, mozzarella sticks were crunchy and my white pasta was divine. 

A closer look at my sampler plate

Chef's Hamburger (P199)

My brothers were the ones who ordered this. They said the patty was very good, but the overall taste of the sandwich lacks flavor.

All-Meat Pizza (P355). Good for 3-4 people

One of my personal favorites. It's freshly cooked and I love the taste. It doesn't have that much meat, though, but it's still delicious.

Roasted Chicken (P199)

Quite good according to my husband 

Fettucinne con la carne  w/ blue lemonade (P195)

My sister loved this dish. 

Spaghetti with Shrimps and Vegetables (P265)

My mom said this dish was also good. 

 Ah, yes. We were quite mesmerized with the place's comfort room because it was so clean and we loved the interior.

This is the ladies room and there are 2 toilets inside. Not sure what the other one is for, but my son who's 4 years old used the smaller toilet so I guess that's what it's for. They're also complete with hoses where you can wash down under :)

Razzzo's Menu:

We definitely recommend this place to couples, families, and friends because of it's great food and great ambiance. They also have a Valentine Set Meal Promo for people dining in. Simply call them for inquiries or reservations.
