The Luxurious Trio: Smoked Salmon, Artichoke, and Spanish Onion

Our No #2 Pizza features a masterfully crafted blend of three tantalising ingredients, brought together by Marina Lunga’s expertise and culinary passion. Each element carries a distinctive flavour and texture, elevating the pizza to a truly gourmet experience.

Smoked Salmon: Delicate and alluring, the smoked salmon gracing our No #2 Pizza is the epitome of luxury. With its velvety smooth texture and luscious, smoky taste, it lends a sophisticated depth to the pizza. This sumptuous touch is what sets our No #2 Pizza apart, ensuring the dish is a feast for both the palate and the eyes.

Artichoke: Known for their buttery, nutty flavour, artichokes bring a delicate, earthy touch to the pizza. The subtle taste and tender texture provide a delightful contrast to the smoked salmon, creating an exquisite balance of flavours.

Spanish Onion: With their slightly sweet, mildly piquant taste, Spanish onions add complexity to the pizza’s flavour profile. The subtle, aromatic bite of the onions serves to heighten the delicate nuances of the smoked salmon and artichoke, rounding out the exquisite experience that is our No #2 Pizza.

Creating the Perfect Foundation: Napoli Sauce and Artisanal Pizza Crust

The excellence of any gourmet pizza is primarily determined by two key components – the sauce and the crust. Honing intricate culinary techniques and choosing only the finest ingredients, Marina Lunga’s exceptional Napoli sauce and handcrafted artisanal crust are at the very core of our No #2 Pizza.

Napoli Sauce: Rich, flavourful, and meticulously crafted, the Napoli sauce that serves as the base for our No #2 Pizza is a testament to our unwavering commitment to quality. Made from a blend of the finest tomatoes and aromatic herbs, our Napoli sauce creates a delicious canvas upon which our pizza’s luxurious ingredients can shine.

Pizza Crust: Our handcrafted artisanal pizza crust is built on years of experience and dedication to achieving the perfect balance between texture and taste. Striking a delicate balance between crispy and chewy, the crust provides a tantalising backdrop for the No #2 Pizza’s tantalising toppings. Each bite is a glorious combination of flavours and textures, creating a memorable gourmet experience.

The Perfect Pour: Wine and Beverage Pairings for No #2 Pizza

The indulgence of a gourmet pizza like our No #2 Pizza calls for an equally luxurious beverage to enhance and complement the experience. We offer a carefully curated selection of wines and beverages specially chosen to pair with the exquisite flavours of the smoked salmon, artichoke, and Spanish onions.

For wine lovers, a crisp, aromatic white wine such as Vermentino or Sauvignon Blanc is the ideal choice to enhance the indulgent nuances of the smoked salmon and artichoke. Alternatively, a lighter red wine like a Pinot Noir or a Beaujolais offers a subtly fruity counterbalance to the rich flavour profile of our No #2 Pizza.

For those who prefer beer, a refreshing, slightly hoppy pale or amber ale would complement the unique blend of flavours on the No #2 Pizza. Alternatively, a tangy, effervescent wheat beer will highlight the dish’s delicate subtleties, making for an invigorating pairing.
