Fig and goat's cheese pizzas
|
Taste of Pizza is good but not presented in attractive manner
|
It is important for chef to go for some innovative ideas in terms of presentation.
|
|
Kumara & taleggio stack
|
It's taste is little bit sweet which does not go with the actual look of food.
|
Use some more salty and spicy ingredient in order to enhance its taste.
|
|
Vegetable and chickpea fritters
|
Its very crispy and delicious in taste.
