With well-done, hearth-crisped pizzas, rare draught beers and even on tap wine, Pizza Fabbrica is a welcome addition to the Bugis dining beat.

Upon entering the cool, minimalist space taken by Pizza Fabbrica on Bussorah Street, your eye is drawn straight through to the back by the glinted reflections of a gorgeous copper-clad oven, ebulliently glowing from its wood-fired embers within. It sits behind a glassed-in kitchen, bustling with chefs pressing dough and boiling pasta. The window is a theme at the restaurant, its storefront also featuring floor-to-ceiling versions that allows light and action to flow from inside to outside beautifully. The rest of the design is as if stepping into the mind of a graphic designer, complete with techy textures of chrome and wire, along with charming infographic posters displaying optimal wine and beer pairings. It’s a refreshingly minimal, but not understyled look that shows a new side to the tired hipster aesthetic, and a very unexpected one for a pizza restaurant.

Let the posters guide you to your ideal beverage, picking from the small but efficient bar of beers and wines on tap. From the menu, the pizzas are the obvious choice, in which you can taste the handiwork of that impressive oven. The Funghi Scarmorza features a woodsy mix of mushrooms with a drizzle of truffle oil and rich melted cheese that’s an immediate palate pleaser. The Prosciutto Crudo con Rucola is another winner with more than the usual volume of toppings of Parma ham and peppery rocket suspended in a milky mozzarella. The Vegetariana has the same cheese, which is cut nicely by balsamic grilled eggplant, capsicum and zucchini. All the pizzas are grounded by a tasty crust, chewy in the center and bubbled and scorched at the edges. A variety of pastas is also available for the non-pizza straggler of your dining party. Cap off the meal with a heavenly scented, creamy Saffron Panna Cotta and you won’t be disappointed! (Dec 2014)
