360 Gradi Pizzeria & Trattoria - 405 Magill Road, St Morris SA 5068
Back in 2014, On The Chopping Board (OTCB) was kindly invited to 360 Gradi Pizzeria and Trattoria for a memorable dinner (It's Getting Hot in Here). In 2017, 360 Gradi relocated only a hop, skip and a jump from the former location into a much bigger premises, which previously housed one of our other favourites Maiz & Mezcal. I (Amanda) and a few friends decided last minute on Adelaide Cup Day to check out 360 Gradi's new location, as it was one of the few places in our neighbourhood open on this public holiday (please note: 360 Gradi charges a 10% surcharge when open on public holidays).
Pizza Night! |
On this occasion 3 of us decided to share 2 pizzas and a salad and the 4th person selected the house made gnocchi ragu. We picked the 'Sfiziosa' pizza from the main menu and the ' Pizza e Fichi' from the regularly updated specials menu. We had an ample amount of food to share between 4 girls, even leaving a half a slice of pizza behind... we knew the nutella calzone was calling our name for dessert, so we all didn't want to risk over eating!
Sfiziosa Pizza $25 |
This was disappointing as the flavour of the pizza was delicious, so if served warm it would have been perfection! The base was thin and the crust light with a slight crisp edge and the addition of the buffalo mozzarella scattered freshly atop after cooking would have been a great balance with the rest of the pizza if it was served hot or even warm. The tomato sauce base is made using Italian San Marzano tomatoes and was superb thanks to the depth of flavour and sweetness this type of tomato provides.
Pizza e Fichi $26 |
360 Gradi uses a delicious locally made mozzarella, which was generously applied and the prosciutto also generously scattered atop is seasoned for a minimum of 24 months and freshly shaved on demand in house. This freshly shaved proscuitto was an absolute stand out due to the amazing flavour, softness of the slices and with the fat removed (thanks!) and we could have eaten a whole plate of this alone.
Rocket & Pear Salad $14 |
Nutella Calzone $19 |
Overall we loved the flavoursome food and good quality ingredients used in all the dishes. If only the pizzas weren't cold and there were enough figs to balance out the prosciutto and cheese on the pizza, it would have taken our visit to one of pure joy..... maybe next time...
