24 top pizzas in Dubai
11 Comments 28 August 2012
Marzano
Pizza: Quattro stagioni.
This thin Italian-style base hosted a good slathering of tomato sauce and a generous sprinkling of cheese, providing an ideal sauce-to-dough ratio and ensuring the pizza was nicely moist in the centre while staying crispy at the edges. The toppings were of varying quality: the beef pepperoni was a little synthetic and chemical-tasting, yet the veggies (courgette, broccoli, bell peppers) were fresh and cooked to al-dente perfection, and the chicken section offered a zingy mix of tender meat, herbs and cherry tomatoes.
Best for: Reliable, homely eats.

Debonairs is definitely the best when it comes to toppings and taste. and I tried their new wheat pizzas, just too good.

Pompeii was the first one on the list! They would probably fit in my list of top 10 worst pizzas

De gustibus...
But as a southern Italian I can tell you that if you want to taste a genuine pizza in Dubai you need to go to Brandi at the Dubai Mall and order a simple Margherita con Bufala.
All the pizza sampled above (with the possible exception of the Caprese of Sicilia) do not meet the standard of what we call "pizza" in Southern Italy (and you can trust us as we invented the dish). -

Marzano is the best, but clearly you don't order the one with courgettes and broccoli like you're trying to assuage some fast food guilt.
You get the buffala with melted cheese.

Who tried the pizzas? How is it possible to rate Rossovivo 4/5 (their pizza is excellent) and Vapiano 5/5 for a pizza with BARBECUE sauce in it?!?

You went to Marzano and asked to have courgette and broccoli on your pizza? Who the hell does that?
