Family Fun Day at Nolita

 
 Pizza anyone?

With the last batch of my cousins living in the US arriving just this morning, our family is now officially complete for the holidays. So veering away from a traditional Filipino lunch (and to give mom and our cook a day off haha) we packed up the troops and brought them to Highstreet Central for a no fuss, family fun day!

With all the heavy Christmas feasts that we've been having the past weeks, everyone agreed to just share slices of pizza from Nolita to keep things "light", well lighter than usual...


 Shrimp Carbonara with Egg

We tried all of the best seller's such as the Chicken Parmesan, Pesto Grilled Chicken with Sun Dried Tomatoes, and Sausage Onion and Garlic. All were amazing but my favorite was the Shrimp Carbonara!






 Just like with pasta, I'm a sucker from cream based pizzas which Nolita made even more special by using a garlicy carbonara for the base and then topping things of with a sunny side up egg.

Our family happily refers to this as "the pizza with an egg"






and Fried Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich for dessert

Simple yet awesome!
I've always had issues making any fried sandwich because I always end up burning the bread even before the fillings gets all gooey. That why I admired Nolita for doing it right and using extremely soft, thick cut bread!


Have a good one everyone!
