Toss to an auspicious new year in a unique fashion – Lo Hei Pizza.  Da Paolo Pizza Bar is celebrating Lunar New Year with an italian twist; by having yu sheng on a pizza.

Featuring a colourful medley of julienned vegetables such as carrot, daikon and celery, along with piquant house-pickled red cabbage, Da Paolo throws in succulent raw Hokkaido scallops and citrus house-cured Atlantic salmon slices to symbolise abundance and prosperity in the year ahead.  Homemade plum sauce is then drizzled over with finishing touches of white sesame seeds, crushed peanuts and crispy rice paper (instead of the usual crackers for added texture).  The base is artisanal thin-crust pizza made with Da Paolo’s signature pizza recipe, an interesting combination when eaten with the yusheng.

We also got our usual order – Burrata and Prosciutto – to share.  The creamy mozzarella is a good combination with the salty parma ham and bitter arugula leaves underneath.

For another sharing main, we got their signature spaghetti alle Vongole as recommended by the chef, in line with the “seafood” theme from the yusheng.  The pasta was served al dente.

We thought of trying another dessert apart from Da Paolo’s signature Tiramisu this time.  This apple pie was served warm with a scoop of vanilla gelato.  It has a thin tart base, with a greater ratio of caramelised apple slices.  This paired well with the smooth, milky Vanilla gelato.  

If you’re thinking of having some Italian food over this Lunar New Year, this Lo Hei pizza is worth considering – a fun and interesting take on yusheng!
