Uno!
Uno! I'm pretty sure everybody has played this famous card game before. But today we are not going to discuss about how to play or even how to win. This post is about Pizza Uno, formerly known as Pizza Italia.
This restaurant specialising in Italian cuisine (as if their former name wasn't obvious enough) begun as a branch in Taipan (USJ) a long way back. Their second branch was at Centrepoint and then they expanded to Puchong. The branch at Centrepoint has existed since I was a student at KBU (way back in 97) and it's still going strong. Says a lot about their food now doesn't it?
Wei Siong, Andy and me were late today afternoon for lunch. And it was pretty good (yes a much overused term I know).

Beef ragout with their home made fettuccine
Beef bacon, smoked salmon, mushrooms and tomatoes on bread
Greek (mussels, prawns, olives) pizza
Beef lasagna
A slice of lemon does make plain water seem fresher!

I had the beef ragout (RM22 + RM2 for the handmade fettuccine option), Andy had the beef lasagna (RM18) while Wei Siong had the vegetarian version (RM16). The bread thingy and pizza were shared.
The beef ragout was truly tasty, filled with bite sized beef chunks and crunchy mushrooms smothered with a thick tomato sauce. No complaints from Wei Siong and Andy concerning their lasagnas which were covered in cheese.
The appetizer was well...average I guess with the mushrooms being on the salty side. Nothing special about that one. And it costs RM9. The pizza was pretty crunchy but the toppings were certainly not on the generous side. In fact, we only got one mussel each! For RM21 I certainly expected more.
Overall we enjoyed our meal. The general ambiance was good making a nice cosy place for a chat. Their menu is pretty extensive too, and I'll probably use that as an excuse to return. Must try different dishes mah!
Ah yes, one thing I would like to highlight is their lack of plain water. All they serve is mineral water, although they don't mind you sharing a bottle with your friends. But come on, is plain water that expensive?
Oh yes, photos courtesy of Andy's kickass new digital camera. =D
