All In London Review
If you like the idea of a Thai curry on a pizza, Fire and Stone is for you
We play it safe by ordering the London, a full English-inspired pizza with Cumberland sausage, bacon, an egg and mozzarella along with turd-shaped mushrooms. Despite the hideous appearance of the latter and heckles from various people around the table it doesn’t taste bad, then again it’s hardly a work of genius to put fried sausage, salty bacon and egg on a base. The New York pizza is smothered in sweet caramelized onion and smoky bacon, which would almost be deemed tasty if it wasn’t for the clumsy mass of insipid sour cream that’s been dumped in the middle, while the Casablanca betrays its origin entirely as it’s a mixture of Roquefort, Mascarpone, mozzarella, garlic butter and walnuts, a satisfactory combo but one that’s as yet unheard of in Morocco.
Despite the stodginess of the pizzas we cram in dessert; the chocolate mousse, for fear of not being copious enough on its own hides a chocolate brownie amidst its layers; the waffle smothered in Belgian chocolate and chocolate ice cream is a bit too hard and threatens to zoom off the plate every time an attempt to cut it is made. A selection tray of five different mini-sized desserts from the menu includes something labelled a banoffee pie which looks like a biscuit covered in sliced banana.
Fire and Stone’s ethos seems to be that if you pile as much fatty stuff onto a dish without breaching World Health Organization rules it will make it good enough for public consumption. It’s a far cry from a wholesome Italian pizzeria, so venture here only as a last resort if you need to fill your stomach, or you like adding strange things to your pizza.
