Back for the Le Rose at PizzaExpress...

A rose is a rose is a rose. The alliteration holds true most of the time, except when you're at PizzaExpress and their signature Le Rose pizza takes it to a whole new level of meaning...


Loaded with savory Pancetta, tender chunks of chicken, Calabrese sausages, Prosciutto and fresh basil, the Le Rose by PizzaExpress is in a class of its own. A classic Romana style pizza with a thin and crisp crust, the rich and indulgent notes of the Pancetta and Prosciutto clearly sets this pizza apart from the rest. And I'm back for another round with the Le Rose (for more on Pizza Express, see my earlier post, Express from the UK: Pizza Express Philippines Opens Flagship Store at SM Megamall). A rose is a rose is a rose may be the case, but not the Le Rose of PizzaExpress.


Established back in 1965 in the UK, PizzaExpress has since grown to over 630 stores worldwide serving its signature pizza like the Le Rose. Each pizza is prepared the classic and old-fashioned way as you order, using the finest ingredients like the rich passata sourced from the same Italian family for over fifty years for their tomato-based pizzas along with premium dough and toppings. While your pizza is prepared, enjoy some fresh and warm Dough Balls served with garlic butter...


...and a refreshing salad. But not just any salad. PizzaExpress offers a unique salad dish with clean and fresh flavors to tease your palate with the Leggera Superfood Salad (P 450).


The Leggera Superfood is a sumptuous fiber and protein-packed salad with garden-fresh greens and vegetables including mozzarella, avocado, roasted pumpkin, beetroot, lentils, French beans, rocket, mixed leaves, basil and pine nuts drizzled with a thick and sharp balsamic dressing. It's just pure and real freshness on a plate, with layers of subtle sweetness contrasting with the sharpness of the balsamic.


Pasta? Absolutely. PizzaExpress also offers a variety of comforting pasta dishes to pair with your pizza. The Spaghetti Bolognese (P 320) is a hearty pasta dish with a rich and savory slow-cooked and meaty beef sauce on soft yet firm spaghetti noodles. The tart notes of the tomato and beef sauce drapes each noodle releasing a burst of vibrant flavors.


Fresh from the oven, the Le Rose (P 520) is served. The classic extra thin and crisp crust is the perfect base for the indulgent toppings like Pancetta, Calabrese sausage and Prosciutto, finished with tender chunks of juicy chicken and fresh basil.


Each bite delivers mildly contrasting notes and textures, with the bold and smoky hints of the Pancetta and the sharpness of the melt-in-your-mouth Prosciutto coming together seamlessly for a savory and unique richness that elevates your pizza experience. These flavors are complemented by the sausages, chicken and fresh basil for that perfect finish.


There is an elegant vibe and feel with the Le Rose and its delicate layering of rich yet subtle flavors, and that thin and crisp crust just weaves everything together perfectly. And like they say at PizzaExpress, this is "a meat pizza made magnificently."


All eight slices of the Le Rose are gone in no time. Each pizza brand has one signature pizza that defines them, and for me, this is PizzaExpress in one rich and savory bite with that delicately light crunch.


Cap your feast at PizzaExpress with the indulgent Eton Mess (P 260), an elegant dessert with fresh strawberries and raspberries draped in fresh whipped cream and pastry cream with a crunchy cashew meringue and sprinkled with toasted pistachio nuts...


...or go for the Big Bad Brownie (P 260) with soft chunks of dense and moist chocolate brownies topped with silky smooth vanilla gelato and slathered in cream with Italian biscotti, vanilla wafer, pistachios and sweet caramel sauce for that sweet ending.


A soothing Latte (P 130) completes your dining experience at PizzaExpress. From the dough balls to the refreshing salad, pasta and pizza, and decadent desserts, PizzaExpress takes your casual and authentic Italian dining experience to a whole new level. And you'll be back...
