Life can be so amazing and fun, especially when you have my job, being able to eat and drink at the most incredible restaurants. Well Piero\u2019s PizzaVino is no exception, well thought out cuisine in the heart of the hot hot hot, El Paseo shopping area in Palm Desert. And the pizza, well that\u2019s a whole other story!
\nMama Gina\u2019s is Piero PizzaVino\u2019s sister restaurant right across the street. The original Mama Gina in Florence Italy, is still being run by Piero\u2019s cousin. Piero told me he wanted to open a restaurant that would offer really great food at a decent price, but it had to be a very close location for him to even think about this new venture. He sold his other renowned restaurant Acqua Pazza 2 \u00bd years ago, so he was ready for something new. Then came Pierro\u2019s PizzaVino. Now, for Piero to check on his staff and clientele he just has to walk across the street.<\/p>\n
We also talked about the fact that the there is no comparable pizza in West Hollywood, and that Piero\u2019s newest restaurant, with all it has to offer, is a well-kept secret. I tried to persuade Piero into opening an annex in WEHO. I guess I gave away the secret; Piero\u2019s PizzaVino is the best pizza in Southern California, with unusual affordable prices!<\/p>\n
At Piero\u2019s PizzaVino, the placemats tell the story of pizza. \u201cArtifacts such as marble slabs and culinary tools resembling those commonly found in today’s pizzerias were discovered in ashes smothering Pompeii after the eruption of Mount Vesuvius on August 24, 79 A.D.\u201d Piero\u2019s PizzaVino uses four key ingredients for true Neapolitan Pizza; the oven, San Marzano tomatoes, Fiordi Latte and DoppioZero Flour, it\u2019s all about the balance. They are very serious about their pizza, and it shows!<\/p>\n
