What’s better than pizza? A burger? What if you could have both of your favourite treats at the same time? Da Paolo Pizza Bar at Holland Village has the answer to this with the all-new Pizzaburger (S$35++), now available until 16 June 2019.
I was pretty excited to try this Pizzaburger out.
Even though it’s not the first time we have seen such a creation on our sunny shores, it’s still uncommon enough to be considered a novelty.
I was also pretty hyped up to see how Da Paolo Pizza Bar, renowned for their premium pizzas, manages to execute this dish.
The Pizzaburger featured a Wagyu beef patty, which was thick and juicy. You can request for your meat cooked well done, but by default, it comes slightly on the medium rare side.
The sweet beef juices intermingled with the porcini mushroom sauce, which was admittedly quite subtle but had a mellow earthiness which went well with the beef.
There was a little saltiness imparted by the Parma ham in the Pizzaburger, which added an additional layer of complexity which I appreciated.
In a similar manner, I felt that including caramelised onions was a great decision as the slightly mushy onions had a different textural quality from the juicy beef.
I also really liked the creamy and buttery brie cheese used. It wasn’t too intense or deep which was good, as it allowed the beef to shine. The gooey cheese also helped to bring all the different flavours present in the dish together, which was a great touch.
That’s the “burger” part of the Pizzaburger though. The pizza crust used to wrap up all the ingredients here did not disappoint either. Crispy and wood-fired with a perfect burnt earthiness, the pizza crust definitely lives up to the standard set by the other pizza offerings at Da Paolo Pizza Bar.
Da Paolo Pizza Bar has managed to marry the best parts of both burgers and pizzas to create something beautiful in their Pizzaburger.
You should definitely come down and give it a shot, but make it quick as the Pizzaburger is only available for a limited period of time!
