Pizzeria Mozza

I rarely get the chance to eat dinner up in LA but on this uncommon weeknight Max and I left work early for a concert at the Hollywood Bowl. I thought it would be nice to share a pizza and some wine at the outdoor venue so we headed to Pizzeria Mozza for some to go. We arrived so early that the normally 45+ minute-wait was only 10 minutes for the bar so we decided to eat there.

And oh-em-gee I wasn't sure what I was expecting but the food there definitely blew my expectations out of the water!

The first dish we had was the grilled corn. The outside was slightly caramelized and crunchy and the butter carried so much flavor. I have to say this was the best corn I ever had in my life and I've had some pretty good corn.

The next dish was more interesting in promise. The Bone marrow al forno was served with some toasted bread and natural salts and herbs for taste. I was a little greasy but it was a lot of fun to prepare.

The pizza itself was probably the least impressive part of our meal (though it was supposed to be the center point). We ordered two and although they were good, they weren't spectacular.

Overall, Pizzeria Mozza was a fitting dinner before Mozart under the stars. =)
