I have almost always liked Woodside Inn - Andheri West. Their food usually lifts my mood despite a slightly gloomy interior rendered even more gloomy with ultra dim lights and not much space. Having enjoyed their thin crust pizzas and rissotos, tasted interesting burgers at their Burger Festival et al, I am happy revisiting.
We went specifically for their Christmas special mulled wine. The first round was not hot enough but did not taste too bad. The second round was thankfully the right temperature. The dehydrated orange slice didnt look very good as garnish though I enjoyed the apricot that came with it.
I did not want to overeat so we stuck with a pizza from their regular menu instead of opting for confits and other exotic dishes in the special menu. Pork House with pepperoni, chorizo,smoked bacon and smoked sausages sounded perfect - in my book there can never have enough pork on a pizza!
The crust and pork topping were pretty good but the garnish threw me. Julienned apples almost covered the entire surface of the pizza. There was definitely more apple on it than bacon!
The problem with lives being ruled by MasterChef and other food shows is that people tend to get experimental without understanding basics. I can picture someone in the establishment having a eureka moment thinking...Hey apple sauce is a classic combination with roast pork. We have pork pizza which is grilled. So lets put apples on that!
I love innovation. But I have problems with innovation that results in flavours that do not marry well. In Woodside Inn's defense I have to say the arugula overdose on their Margherita is rather lovely. However arugula works beautifully with cheese and tomato. But imagine putting apple slices on your lavash! That is pretty much what happened with this pizza. The apple overdose did nothing other than detracting from the taste. And the texture of apples was not required since the thin crust provided enough crunch!
Charred apples, grilled apples or even a cooked chunky sauce on the side would have been interesting but not raw apples! I finally nibbled on apple juliennes with my wine and had the pizza minus apple!
I am posting this not because the pizza was inedible. Thankfully the apples were removable and I did not allow them to spoil my food. But I find it strange that a restaurant known for good food would serve a dish like this.
