Jamie's Pizzeria by Jamie Oliver (Pacific Mall, Subhash Nagar, New Delhi)

If you are looking for authentic Italian cuisine, this is the place to be in.

Located in the Posh Pacific Mall, 5 minutes from the Subhash Nagar Metro Station (for convenient public transport), this outlet is full of friendly people who you can quiz on ingredients, dishes and its relevance to Indian food.

The Republic Day Sale is here so one can grab great deals at the Mall. Post shopping, when hunger pangs nag you, please drop by this outlet and enjoy some fun time with your family and friends. Saurav, the friendly steward at the entrance guided us through the menu, informing us about the different italian dishes. Sandeep took our order and patiently explained what would be a better choice in terms of ingredients in the dishes. With his help, we zeroed on 'Roasted Vegetable Lasagne' and 'Chicken Peperonata Regular Pizza'.

When the Lasagne arrived, we were intrigued by green leaves as a topping. We quizzed Sandeep, if these were Basil leaves and he said these were rocket leaves. Having never heard the name Rocket leaves, we were inquisitive if there was a hindi name to it or if we used it in our Indian dishes. He smiled and informed we call them 'Tarmari ka Patta' in Hindi and he managed to find the meaning on the internet. Both of us had a good laugh at the brief discussion and it set a good tone for the meal. Sandeep warned us about how hot the Lasagne plate would be since it came straight out of the oven.

The Lasagne with Peppers, tomato, chewy Mozzarella and Rocket leaves was fun. So was the Chicken Pizza with Black Olives and layers of shredded chicken. The ambience is warm, colorful and relaxed with graphitti on the walls and a happy, friendly team serving its customers.

Overall, a wonderful place for authentic Italian cuisine that you must try out with your family and friends. Happy eating to all the Zomans!! :)
