Few weeks after our first Little Manila shindig, we were invited yet again by Kuya Ken for their pre-anniversary celebration/ food tasting event.
I was happy to be invited alongside famous Pinoy bloggers and vloggers in Dubai. Feeling ko tuloy certified blogger na din ako =)
The jeepney has finally arrived!
Before I proceed, please watch this short clip to see the event highlights.
Done?
As you can see, the GIANT PIZZA clearly stole the spotlight!
At 27″, it is considered as the ‘Biggest Four flavored Pizza in 1 pan in the UAE’.
Wow!
Mr. Ken Peralta & Chef Jojo unveiling the biggest pizza in the UAE
With its huge size, this pizza can easily feed a group of 10-12 adults…or maybe more!
As of now, there are 6 flavors to choose from:
- Kwatro Kantos (4 flavors — pepperoni, margarita, Hawaiian & veg)
- Centura grande (Super supreme)
- Carne pina amore (Hawaiian)
- Pollo barbacoa (smoked chicken barbeque)
- Queso loco de pimento (3 kinds of cheese w/ jalapenos)
- Granja de venturas (vegetarian)
It’s also good to note that Chef Jojo decided to use focaccia dough for their pizza base which results to pillow-like crust with just the perfect thickness. In short, hindi nakakaumay.
Little Manila’s new Pizza Fiesta menu will also come in 3 sizes — depende sa trip nyo =)
- 14 inches with drinks (AED70, good for 2-4 pax)
- 21 inches with your choice of pasta (carbonara or bolognese), buffalo wings and drinks (AED205, good for 7-9 pax)
- 27 inches with your choice of pasta (carbonara or bolognese), buffalo wings and drinks (AED360, good for 10-12 pax)
not your regular sized buffalo wings
Spaghetti bolognese. Do not expect the typically sweet pinoy spaghetti. This is different but still tasty.
On the other hand, their carbonara was a revelation! This is by far the best carbonara dish I’ve ever tasted =)
Now on with dessert…
I present to you Little Manila’s Double decker choco fudge cake!
Decadent is an understatement! This is a must try for chocolate lovers!
This cake will be sold at Bread Shop for AED100 per kilo or AED15 per slice (Buy the whole cake, you will not regret it promise! =))
My review
I have mentioned many times that I am not a food blogger, so bear with me if I cannot give a detailed review of every dish presented to us. All I can share is my honest & humble opinion =)
- I appreciate that Little Manila came up with delicious flavors for Pizza Fiesta. They even have one for vegetarians. However, I would have loved to see something for spicy lovers like me. Same goes for the buffalo wings.
- Most Pinoys (including yours truly) prefer to have sweet spaghetti but their pasta bolognese is also worth a try =)
- The carbonara pasta won my tastebuds! It was creamy and meaty but not overwhelming. Basta masarap!
Finally, with the quality of ingredients, generous servings, and competitive pricing, Little Manila’s Pizza Fiesta menu will definitely be a hit not just for the Filipino community but the foreign market as well =)
May ice candy pa =)
Congratulations to Little Manila team for a successful launch!
Sa uulitin!
