Pizza

Who could live off pizza? I could. I swear, best food ever. I just went to Germany at the weekend for a couple of concerts. Saturday was our day off. We had a few hours in Dresden before flying to Munich. I had originally wanted to visit a veggie restaurant in Dresden but my friend wanted a walk around the Alt Stadt so I said how about we start there and maybe then head to the veggie restaurant. Well, we ended up not getting to the veggie restaurant as we wandered through the Alt Stadt into a sort of plaza by the Frauenkirche - it was boiling and we were exhausted. Then I spotted a pizza place. We went to look at the menu and I noticed they did a Pizza Marinara - so we decided to sit down and I asked the waiter if he could do the pizza with no cheese. He said yes. So I ended up having this from Piazza Nova:

It was actually really nice - nicer than it looks! lol.

Time started ticking fast and we figured we’d probably best start walking to the train station and then getting the train to the airport. So I didn’t get to go to the veggie diner - maybe next time.

When we got off our flight to Munich I was itching to go to the veggie restaurant in Munich. I had to at least go to one veggie place while I was in the country. The restaurant calling my name was Prinz Myshkin. I managed to persuade Cheryl that we should go there on the way to the hotel as it would be quicker than going to the hotel, checking in and then going to the restaurant - at this point it was pouring with rain. We eventually found Prinz Myshkin and… well… I ended up having pizza again. I’d already checked out Prinz Myshkin’s website in advance before my trip. I knew they had a Pizza Bruschetta although the Potato Gnocchi also looked good. I was torn. But pizza won again. Cheryl said “You should have something different, you’ve had pizza already,” but no… I couldn’t resist a second pizza. Pizza is just heaven. Seriously.

So here’s the pizza I had from Prinz Myshkin:

Lots of tomatoes on there. It had no cheese though. Again it tastes great. I personally usually prefer not to have tomatoes on top of a pizza - I like my pizza just with the tomato puree and cheese, but I won’t complain about this one! Any vegan pizza is a good vegan pizza if I’m travelling. Prinz Myshkin was a cool veggie restaurant. It was bigger than I thought - there were two rooms - a busy big one and then a smaller quieter one. We went in the quieter side and the waiter later told us that Paradise Lost sat at the table we were at when they went there. The waiter told us that a lot of veggie/vegan musicians go there - Lenny Kravitz has been, Ronnie Wood, Henry Rollins, Uriah Heep and more.

Anyway, I could definitely live on pizza. Pizza for dinner, pizza for tea, it’s a shame our hotel didn’t do any vegan pizza that I could have had for breakfast the next morning!

And on that note, I’m starting to crave a pizza now…  

PS. I still need to write an article on the vegan food I had in Texas last month but I’m so insanely busy. I’ve got a mad pile of work - and heading out and about for shows is keeping me from catching up with all the writing I need to do. I’ll get to it soon… hopefully.
