OMOTESANDO: IL Pacioccone for daily Pizza special and home made pudding :)

Seems I've been frequenting IL Pacioccone after my irregular visits to http://ts-raiz.com/ (if you need a haircut ask for owner/stylist Okazaki-san).  They also have a branch in Hawaii http://www.yelp.com/biz/raiz-salon-honolulu

Waiter suggested the daily Pizza special... 

Never realized there was a 2nd branch in Minami Aoyama...

The Cheese pizza with Italian salami and fresh onion (new crop) arrived... as usual its easily so much large and thicker than most lunch pizza spots.  The salami was a nice change...

Fresh warm bread with olive oil.

Was alone so sat on the 1st floor counter seating (seats 4) and the only location in the restaurant that allows smoking.  2nd floor is all no-smoking... nice!

Daily dessert special that comes with the 1,050yen lunch was a very large piece of home made pudding.  Was so difficult to finish after the huge pizza.

Lunch closes with your choice of coffee or tea.

No smoking sign... and never realized they didn't allow photography or phones inside.  I assume tables are quite close together and camera/mobile phone shutter sounds can be distracting over dinner.

Another filling meal :).  Next time I'll have to give Pizza a rest and go for some pasta~.

If you are in the area there is a cool Ferrari dealership... 3 Californias and 1 Ferrari 458 parked outside in the rain.

OMOTESANDO: IL Pacioccone revisited for 1,050 Daily Pizza Special!

Haircut at T.S. RAIZ in Omotesando then off to one of my favorite Italian lunch spots, IL Pacioccone! 

I was alone so opted for the 1st floor counter seating... seats 4.

The bread here is excellent... topped with salt and herbs... crispy on the outside and warm on the inside.

Went for the day's lunch Pizza special... topped with anchovies, olives... and some other things with a Napoli pizza base.   Tasty and the crust was perfectly chewy.

Spicy olive oil provided a great kick to the pizza

Yogurt topped with pineapple... sweet and light enough to enjoy after a heavy pizza meal.

There are several choices for the closing drink.  I went for some hot tea.

Where dinner pizza only prices begin at 1,680yen you can't go wrong with a 1,050yen pizza meal.  There are 4 other choices to select from on the Pizza menu plus several pastas.

Once again... another great 1,000yen lunch!

OMOTESANDO: IL Pacioccone 1,000yen Lunch (Back again for Mari's favorite pizza).

And we were back again to check out or favorite Italian lunch spot in all of Tokyo... IL Pacioccone!  If you scan my blog you will find several entries.  Had a 1:45pm reservation on a beautiful Sunday.

White asparagus imported from Italy.

Specials of the day

Always enjoy the light Mozzarella and Tomato dish.

And it arrived... Mari's favorite pizza.  Toppings include olive, boiled egg, prosciutto and mushrooms.

But unfortunately for our last 2 visits our pizza dough has been undercooked... on the outside it seemed normal but under the toppings the dough was very mushy.  Mari mentioned it to the waiter and they immediately took it back...

While we waited on the new pizza we started off with a great pasta dish on the daily specials menu.

And so the 2nd Pizza arrived... cooked to perfection.

A rose for Mari.

And a nice desert to end the meal.  Was a custard/pudding based dish.

Ask for a take-out box if you can't finish the pizza.

Another nice lunch in Omotesando.

Truffle topping Pasta!? Mari was locked onto the truffle... so we passed on the great 1,000yen fixed lunch menu and went for the 3,780yen Fisso Del Giorno for two.  

Antipasto.  Mozzarella balls were great! Tomatoes seasoned in Basil.

This pasta was amazing...Truffle shavings, mushrooms, bacon and pasta was egg based.

Switched the non-tomato sauce based special pizza for Mari's favorite...

Tiramisu, Chocolate Cake and Milk Ice Cream (sweet condensed milk flavor).

Lunch ended with a selection of tea.

The bill... slightly seasoned with tomato sauce and olive oil. 

Took a few slices of pizza home.  This place is always amazing... and hands down our favorite Italian restaurant in Tokyo.  Just can't beat the friendly service.  If you live in the Ebisu/Nishi Azabu/Omotesando Area its just a 10-15min walk to the spot on Roppongi-Dori.
