Best Pizza in Mammoth- Giovanni's

It's strange they don't have Margarita pizza on the menu... We had to customize it. They had BBQ Chicken, various forms of vegetarian, a 'Meatlovers' style, and Spicy Thai, but no classic, traditional, every Italian restaurant has one- Margarita pizza.

Menu

So we ordered a mozzarella, basil, garlic and tomato pizza on a regular crust, instead of thin. It was delicious! They really should it put it on the menu.

We also had a half/half pizza: 'Masterpiece' on a thin crust with pepperoni, sausage, bell pepper and mushroom. I'm not a fan of pepperoni, but this was tasty. Great for carnivores. The other half was the 'Eggcentric' with basil, red onion, eggplant, feta and tomato. It was an interesting mix of a greek and italian vegetarian that was excellent.

The restaurant itself is nothing special, but the smell of the food envelopes you and tantalizes your taste buds into extreme salivation. You're mouth waters and stomach growls in the few minutes it takes to wait for a table. I loved Giovanni's.

Side note: I am very sorry I was unable to take pictures due to extreme hunger. Please google them for images.

Gorgeous Red Rubies

Pomegranates are still in season...

Look how gorgeous they are when they're ripe!

I never fully appreciated these blood red seeds before this year. They always tasted bitter to me. Now, I love them. I put them with greek yogurt for breakfast; the acidity helps break the salty flavor and the crunchy texture counter-acts the creaminess. The seeds are also great thrown in an Asian style salad. You can even reduce the juice down into a syrup to pour over vanilla ice cream or french toast. Try it out...
