When it comes to authentic Italian cuisine in the heart of London, La Ballerina Italian Restaurant in Covent Garden stands out as a haven for food lovers. Among the many exquisite dishes on our menu, one item captures the essence of traditional Sicilian flavors—the Sicilian Pizza. Priced at just £16.50, this culinary masterpiece is a delightful combination of carefully chosen ingredients that promise to transport you to the sun-kissed landscapes of Sicily.
What Makes Sicilian Pizza Special?
Sicilian pizza isn’t just another pizza—it’s a slice of Italian history. Unlike the thin and crispy pizzas typically associated with Neapolitan style, Sicilian pizza offers a thicker, more indulgent base that perfectly holds its hearty toppings. At La Ballerina, we’ve elevated this traditional dish by blending authentic techniques with premium ingredients to craft a pizza that’s both rustic and refined.
The Perfect Combination of Ingredients
The Sicilian Pizza at La Ballerina features a harmonious medley of flavors:
Tomato: A rich tomato base made from freshly sourced, sun-ripened tomatoes provides the foundation of the pizza. Its natural sweetness balances the savory toppings.
Mozzarella: Creamy and perfectly melted, our mozzarella ensures every bite is a gooey, cheesy delight.
Parma Ham: Thinly sliced and delicately cured, Parma ham adds a layer of luxurious, salty flavor that complements the other toppings.
Pepperoni Sausage: For a touch of spice and smoky aroma, we include premium pepperoni sausage. Its bold flavor stands out without overpowering the dish.
Basil and Oregano: Fresh basil leaves and a sprinkling of oregano complete the pizza with their aromatic and herbaceous notes.
This combination creates a pizza that’s bursting with flavor, making it a must-try for both pizza connoisseurs and casual diners.
