Amore: The pizza of your dreams, at Peristeri

Affordable and easy, simple but not simplistic, pizza is the coziest intimacy. The definitive, most viral food of Italy, during the past few years is being offered to Athenians even more proper and upgraded. With handmade maturing doughs that give points to the taste. With fresh ingredients and captivating combinations. With a quick passthrough in the oven at the right temperature that makes a crispy and fluffy rim and juicy and delicious towards the centre… “that’s ‘Amore'”! 

The pizza place with the same name at Sofokli Venizelou 42 in Peristeri has exactly this mission: to reintroduce us to the right pizza, in a super casual space, just like the modern pizzerias of Italy. The all-white tile spreads a feeling of cleanliness in the environment and reflects the smiles of the patrons, the modern, relaxed perspective in the design makes you feel cozy, with nothing pretentious and nothing snobbish, just you in a tender tete-a-tete with a pizza of your Italian dream.

Chefs universally agree that you can tell a good pizza by a Margarita; here you will feel the skill in the simplicity of the nice tomato sauce, in the quality of the Parmesan and of course the artful baking. Well, indeed, the combination of San Marzano tomatoes and the perfect dough don’t leave space for doubt. Don’t forget to order a Mortadella pizza, with gorgonzola cream, mozzarella, freshly cut mortadella, gremolata and pistachio. The same goes for Pepperoni, Tartufo and Chicken. Wholesome, you have never eaten them so balanced, delicious to perfection. 

Amore’s surprise is the classic Italian panini with their own handmade bread: Grilled and combined with a handmade green apple jam, cherry tomato confit, gremolata and gorgonzola in Porchetta; or with cream cheese, sun-dried tomato pesto and gremolata in Mortadella, they are simply brilliant. For a sweet finish, try the luscious, delicious Tiramisu– it’s already become the talk of the town. And if you’re in the mood for an aperitivo or a cocktail, jump next door to its sibling, “Lovely Days”.
