Best ever Pizza 🍕 Dare at Mozza in St Andrews Scotland

Have you ever had a Pizza Dare?

Have you even heard of a pizza dare? I know I never had, so was very intrigued when we saw it on the menu of Mozza which purports to have True Neapolitan Pizza!

True Neapolitan Pizza

I had to be in St Andrews in Fife, Scotland a couple of weeks on a Friday.

Being a Friday I asked Mrs T if she fancied coming along. I mentioned pizza and her eyes lit up!

I had never heard of this place Mozza, but it had got good reviews.

Being American Mrs T does like her pizzas and to put it mildly the pizzas over here and generally overpriced and pretty crap so to speak.

She did her due diligence.

In fact she had found the menu online.

Whilst I belong to the I will eat it if there is nothing else pizza camp had plumped for number 8 on the menu.

Remember this was all done on the couch at home!

It might changed when we got there...

Mrs T was somewhat intrigued with number 13 ... the MOZZA DARE

It really was a chef's surprise.

I had booked a table for 2.30pm, being a university town and a Friday afternoon, you never know if it would be busy or not!

Turned out that we were the only customers in there.

Normally that could bring alarm bells. However the ambience was giving off good vibes.

In fact I am not going to lie, the pizza cutter on the menu on the table did it for me!

The staff were brilliant and students. We had a girl from Malaysia doing a masters who was our main server.

I had a pint of Angelo Poretti and Mrs T a pint of full fat Coke.

PIZZA ~ The number 8

image.png

I had chosen my pizza due to having artichokes. I love artichokes and black olives.

Throw in ham , salami and some mozzarella cheese and you almost have my pizza.

Haha I just saw the bold mozza in mozzarella on the menu and twigged with the name Mozza for the restaurant.

I am slow at times...

PIZZA ~ The number 13 The DARE

Our waitress had explained what the chefs would do. WE just said anything we did not like or were allergic to.

They did the rest. The triangles were stuffed.

2 huge pizzas

They really were big pizzas and my eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

As much as I like bread etc it fills me up fast, and also counts with pizza bases.

However, these were so thin pizza bases, and the focus was on the toppings.

image.png

They really were out of this world.

Remember I am the pizza non fan and I was drooling.

Mrs T meanwhile was in shock!

Triangle stuffing

image.png

Each triangle was stuffed with cheese or ham or some combination, and were all different.

Mrs T loved it and could not believe it.

She loves pizza and been here on and off for over 20 years and was hard pressed trying to remember as good a one as she had in the UK.

First quarters down

image.png

Actually I snorted down the first quarter, it was so darn tasty. The artichokes were cooked to perfection and the olives just perfect.

image.png

Mrs T was still in shock and had applied a liberal sprinkling of the chilli flakes which had a nice touch of heat about them!

image.png

Ice Cream to finish

Actually we were getting paid to eat here but had (I said had like it was some sort of punishment 🤣

So the simplest or should I say the easiest to eat was ice cream.

Mrs T had the salted caramel topping...

image.png

Whilst I opted for my all time favourite raspberry sauce.

image.png

Spades and Shovels

They had the most cute spoons, I had a spade whilst Mrs T had a shovel.

The brown stick is a chocolate flake in case anyone was wondering!

image.png

The verdict

It got a 10 out of 10 from me and Mrs T as well.
The price was around £50 for the pair of us which was pretty good for a 2 course meal with a drink.

I'm with you on the artichokes and olives. Though I also need anchovies.

My only problem is the distance. But if I leave now, I'll be there for supper! 😂

NaN BEE

Oh yes anchovies are pretty tasty too!
It seems your train got delayed so we ate it all 🤣

NaN BEE

I love Mrs T one😌. I like that every angle was stuffed with different toppings. And the dessert.😌😌.

NaN BEE

It looked amazing and looked even better than it does in the picture.

NaN BEE

Did you pack some to bring home?

NaN BEE

I have already said that the best pairing or combination is pizza, beers and soccer!!!! I love olives and artichokes, but Mrs. T's surprise, stuffed, pizza looks delicious. As always, an excellent gastronomic tour, my friend! Best regards

NaN BEE

Hehe pizza beers and soccer you are a girl after my own heart! The Pizza dare really was a surprise and it was a gastronomic delight from start to finish. I know you would have loved it Nancy. Big hug and a kiss

NaN BEE

Those are pretty unique spoons! The pizza looks really good. We get a bit spoiled over here given how many options we have and how readily available it is. I'm glad you found this place and that it was worth it!

NaN BEE

Yeah the spoons tickled me, and they were functional!
Yeah it was a cracker of a place. Only drawback if you like was there was only one beer, but the food was superb.

NaN BEE

I've actually been to bars like that. You could have whatever you wanted in a can, bottle, or on draft, as long as it was Busch Light.

First as an Italian and huge pizza lover I can tell you that these pizzas looks amazing especially the pizza dare, lol what a cute idea, and exiit so creative and good looking, by the way if you like artichokes and olives I suggest you to try the capricciosa pizza 🍕😋

I really loved the look and the taste of them. So having you say they look amazing just confirms how great I thought they really were.
The Pizza Dare was a really great idea and I think that won the show! Now I need to try the capricciosa pizza ... Thank you so much for the suggestion.
