Table for Two @ Pizzeria Mozza

We actually sat at the pizza bar.  We like to see our Sous Chef Nikko in action @ Pizzeria Mozza on Melrose.  And as always, we had a lot of food just for two, but who's complaining!  In addition to what we ordered, a few dishes were sent out compliments from the kitchen, and our drinks were on the house.  Woohoo!  Thank you Nikko for always taking care of us.

Currently not on the menu..."Sardines"

If you like bone marrow, this is one of the best I've tried

I don't like meatballs, but this you must try.  

Compliments from the kitchen, "deep fried cauliflower" a family favorite  

Rapini, cherry tomoatoes, anchovies, olives & chiles

Another compliments from the kitchen..."Pea Pizetti" as if one pizza isn't enough! But, who's complaining! 

Still managed to devour a slice or two even with the amount of food.

Ordered the Meyer Lemon Gelato Pie, but came out with three desserts to fill our tasty palates! 

And of course, our togo boxes for all the left over food! 

Mexican Fusion

This place isn't your ordinary Mexician cuisine. From what we were told, it has a Filipino influence as well as others. I've tried several of the dishes, and it's quite good if you like something different other than authentic Mexican food for a change.

Yummy Enchilada 

Chile Colorado de Short Rib (1/2 lb slow braised angus short rib, new mexico chile sauce, seasonal vegetable, queso fresco, cilantro with beans and rice.

Artfully Crafted @ 50 Forks

What a wonderful complimentary dinner with my Nikko and sisters at 50 Forks!!! We enjoyed an artfully crafted food prepared by AI (Art Institute) culinary students. The school restaurant is open Monday through Friday for lunch and dinner.  Most of all, it's reasonably priced!  First Course or Bites @ $5; Second Course or Nosh @ $10;  Third Course or Sweets @ $5.  Can't beat that!
