Ladro Gertrude, Melbourne

Ladro sets a high standard for its classic, no-nonsense wood-fired pizza. Not overwhelmed by extravagant toppings, the pizza is simple and perfectly executed with a thin, crisp base.

The casual dining atmosphere is suitable for larger group gatherings and walk ins with tables by the window.

Lightly charred with a hint of smokiness and lots of garlic butter.

Badabing: tomato, provolone, pork sausage, oregano, chilli, basil

The tomato sugo is divine and so is the combination of pork sausage, provolone and herbs. Finely diced chilli scattered on top gives the pizza a nice kick.

Porcini en Gorgonzola: fior di latte, gorgonzola, porcini, pangratatto, basil

A good ratio of gorgonzola meant the other ingredients were not overpowered by the strong blue cheese taste. Incredibly flavoursome and topped off with crunchy crouton bits, this pizza was delicious.
