"...USED TO BE 'ENCORE PIZZERIA' ~ NOW IT'S 'BILLY'S PIZZA JOINT'.. A DIFFERENT KETTLE OF FISH.. OKAY...!!!"
A mate of my son's told him a new pizza joint had set up shop, where an old pizza place had been.. Apparently these new pizza's were both "CHEAP" and "AWESOME".. We had to try..!!
So, tonight we dropped by BILLY'S PIZZA JOINT on Hoddle Street, ABBOTSFORD to buy pizzas to take home..
We chose from their FAMILY SIZE Traditional range:
1 x Marinara - mozzarella, garlic, clams, prawns and anchovies [just delish.. and not salty, like some..]
1 x Chicken Special - mozzarella, garlic, chicken breast, salami, green capsicum and oregano [we loved this.. nice clean taste..]
1 x The Burger - mozzarella, red onion, beef, bacon, pineapple and egg [really really liked this one..!!]
Okay:
1. They were HUGE - 40cms in diameter..
2. They all had minimal tomato sauce - a good thing - too much sauce just drowns all the other flavours..
3. The toppings weren't overly numerous - again, a good thing - I'd use the term 'American Style Pizza' when describing our usual 'Aussie Take-Away Pizzas' - Genuine Italian pizza is made using just a few complimentary toppings..
4. The topping was nice and dry - not watery or sloppy..
5. They were generous with the cheese and it wasn't overcooked - was still stretchy..
6. NO oiliness whatsoever..
And YES, they are cheap... we paid $15.90 for each enormous pizza...!!!
We'll be back.. absolutely.. no doubt about that.. 'bloody good' pizza for the price..!!
PS. They do home-delivery to a big area - as far as Hawthorn to the East - it's all on their website..
