Olivery Pizza

Walking along Ibn Gvirol in North Tel Aviv, we came across Olivery, an adorable Sicilian Bistro. I had heard about it after joining a group where someone had asked the question of where to get good pizza in the Tel Aviv area. We happened to discover this little beauty during lunch time and got to enjoy their lunchtime special which included one of their scrumptious salads and delicious lemonade. The salad above included beef carpaccio on a thin slice of toast covered with rocket leaves, red onion, sliced radish, pesto and a drizzle of olive oil. The salad below was the same thinly sliced homemade toast covered in sun dried tomato paste, rocket leaves, red onion, torn mozzarella balls, sun dried tomatoes and a dressing. Both of these were mouthwateringly delicious!

 

When it came to the pizza, I was more than happy to share! I am not a fan of thick bases and these weren't as thin as I like, but definitely rank at the top of my list when it comes to pizza in Israel. We had the mushroom pizza (tomato base, porcini, champignon and portobello mushrooms with mozzarella and truffle oil) as well as the onion pizza (red onions caramelised in balsamic vinegar, caramelised shallots, green onions and fresh mozzarella). I do look forward to going back... my mouth waters at the thought of it : )
