Pizza

Pinvita

Pinvita, once known for its ice creams, is rapidly branching out to other non-dessert comfort grub such as burgers and pizzas. For the latter, they do play it very safe with their topping choices (margherita, four seasons, as well as calzones, are all here) but hey, who said pizza had to be complicated?

Pizzagram.

Perched on the sixth floor of Xidan Joy City, Pizzagram. takes a novel approach to selling pizza, slinging slices by the gram. Simply choose how much you'd like (100g/250g/500g at approximately RMB 15-20 per 100g), before the slice is weighed, heated up, and served before serving. Since all pizza slices are sold by the gram, there’s also a pizza rank showing the bestsellers of the moment. Choices include raclette, “Hawaii and Italy go to China,” chorizo, porcini, barbecue chicken, Mexican, margarita, salmon and truffle, carpaccio, and Nutella.

Nasca Café

Opened in 2008, Nasca Café's owner Liu Guanliang studied marketing in New Zealand, and worked at popular local pizza restaurant chain Hell Pizza (with 64 stores in NZ), before bringing the concept to China. Obsessed with Nazca Lines (the large ancient geoglyphs in southern Peru), he named his brand after them.
