Tasty Tuesday - Pizzeria Mozza

Los Angeles is filled with tastemakers, especially when it comes to food. Anyone that has lived in LA has heard of Pizzeria Mozza and Osteria Mozza. The place was created by Mario Batali (Italian yum!) and Nancy Silverton (La Brea Bakery). Bread and cheese, quiet possibly the best combination ever.
When it first opened it was nearly impossible to get a reservation, and that has not changed much four years later. The open floor plan captured me right away, and the old pizza oven - I couldn't get enough! How have I not been here! The only thing missing was some good garlic bread to start - breadsticks were a let down. 

I ordered the Mozza Caprese and the Meatballs al forno to start. So good. Love me some caprese, and this was amazing. The baby red tomatoes were grilled/toasted to perfection! Although I think the prosciutto meat plate would have been delicious, I went for it on my pizza - with rucoa, tomato and mozzarella. Yum! Wash it all down with 3 glasses of Italian Vino, and thats a birthday dinner!

So many choices, I can't wait to go back.
