Pizzeria Bianco is nationally well known for pizza. The owner is the James Beard Award winning chef Chris Bianco. Pizzeria Bianco has earned a positive recognition from various celebrities, Food Network TV, various magazines and by food critics.
I most often go to the Town and Country location in Phoenix.
The atmosphere looks like it’s been here forever. I’ve heard that many of the paintings inside where done by the chef’s father.
There is another dining room behind this one.
Today we will sit on the patio.
They start us up with shattering crisp bread and high quality olive oil.
We share the market salad.
It’s made of radicchio lettuce, sliced Asian pears, gorgonzola cheese and pecans. It’s very balanced. The bold cheese, the nuts and the sweet pears counter the bitter radicchio just so.
My husband had the pappardelle with bolognese sauce.
I had the chicken cacciatore with risotto.
Everything was flavored nicely and the chicken is cooked to perfection but The FORKING Truth is that the risotto is dry and not creamy. I know that it is very rare to get correctly made risotto out so we let this go.
Here are some of the previous dishes we had here.
I’ve had many of the pizzas but as of today I still haven’t had a pizza from this location. I want to include the famous pizza so here is a page I saved from a 2012 Food & Wine Magazine.
Pizzeria Bianco is still Worth a Fork!
