Congratulations to my cousins, Marga Santos Lorenzana, Trisha Ding Santos, Eugene Lorenzana and Bubu Santos on the opening of Motorino! With Owner, founder and chef Mathieu Palombino and John Lopez, Operations Manager
Even their parents, Tito Butch and Tita Bing Bing were very active in setting the business up and making sure everything went smoothly
Motorino born in Napoli, raised in Brooklyn now Open in Manila! At Greenbelt 3, 3rd floor. Motorino means small motorcycle and just like a small motorcycle that can go around easily and is accessible to all types of people, that is how he wants Motorino to be, a pizza for everyone to enjoy
Mathieu has been here for a month to set up and train the staff of Motorino. He worked in many restaurants in New York – Executive Chef of Brasserie Ruhlmann Art and First Chef de Cuisine of BLT amongst many others. He is very hands on and has very strict standards
Watch him make the pizza dough!! According to my cousin Marga, this is the least fattening pizza among all pizzas in the city since ingredients are not processed and they come from Napoli

Backdrop of the Williamsburg Bridge – Motorino opened it’s first branch in 2007 in Williamsburg, Brooklyn across Peter Luger Steakhouse. The second branch will open in East Village, New York and there are two branches in Hong Kong
Only pizzas made the right way and no pasta here at Motorino
Mushroom and Sausage. All pizzas use Fiori di Latte flown in from Napoli together with other of the key ingredients
The New York way of eating a pizza, LIFT
Meatball pizza Special which is not on the menu. They make the meatballs fresh everyday and only the regulars know about this special
Pizza wine which is on the sweet side which is what I like. It is from the Amalfi Coast made out of 3 different grapes
Delicious Tiramisu which is made in house with Mathieu’s recipe
Love the Mama Mary altar in the restaurant

I didn’t know pizza wine exists! It sounds like an italian wine. Is it available here in the supermarket? Wine and pizza night… – sounds like a plan!
