Caffe Vergnano’s in IFC, Central HK



This next meal comes out of a whim from Janet’s and my indecisiveness. While our date was supposed to be a purely “frozen yogurt” excursion, our empty stomachs drove our legs to walk towards…. dinner. Since we had decided to meet up at IFC in Central, our laziness and hunger drove us to more local destinations; aka inside the mall itself.
After much contemplation, we finally agreed on Caffe Vergnano’s. Since we both wanted to save room for frozen yogurt, we decided to share the:

Dello Chef Pizza(Parma Ham Reserve, Buffalo mozzarella cheese, arugula , tomato sauce, and rosemary olive oil.

After my arrival in Hong Kong, I have taken a fond liking to parma ham and honeydew. This pizza was no exception. While arugula tends to be on the bitter side in salads, the texture and bitterness was well paired with the light tomato sauce and super flavorful parma ham.

Additionally- being born and raised in New York has made me a thin crust pizza girl. Sorry you Chicago-ans, still a new york girl at heart no matter how many times you place deep dish pizza in front of me. AND this pizza was just that. Super thin but still able to hold the many ingredients of the pizza without it getting soggy or too thin- or crackerlike.

Overall, a delightful light dinner for those looking for something to satisfy your meat and pizza craving!

Cheers! and happy eating!
