Jerome took us out to dinner, and we always look forward to this 🙂 This trip he took us to Marta, the latest restaurant concept of Danny Meyer at the Martha Washington Hotel. It’s very hard to make a reservation and we were lucky to get one
Rustic thin crust Roman pizzas!!!
We sat right in front of the brick ovens 🙂
Our host and good friend, Jerome 🙂 Thank you for this wonderful experience!!
Insalata Verde! YUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There are so many pizza places opening left and right and you would think how else can you make a pizza? Well, the pizzas we had here were so unique and so yummy!!!!! At Marta there are two sections Pizze Rosse ( red) and there is Pizze Bianche ( white). Not many places have white pizzas and I am so happy there is just as many white pizzas here as reds 🙂 We did not try all but this pizza was so so good!! I love thin pizza!!! Patate Alla Carbonara – potatoes, guanciale, black pepper, pecorino and egg. It looks rich but you don’t feel too heavy after having it
In between pizza and dessert, Jerome and Caloy spotted Danny Meyer!!!!! I was following him and I was so glad he went nearer to our table. I made sure I called his attention to take a photo!!!!! Of all the times to not have my camera!!!! So this is a phone photo! I hope to see him again one day, hopefully in the Philippines with a Shake Shack branch!!! Danny Meyer if the owner and founder of Shake Shack He owns theUnion Square Hospitality group ( USHG) which include Union Square Cafe, Gramercy Tavern, The Modern, Cafe 2 and Terrace 5 ( located at the MOMA ), Matalino, Untitled at the Whitney, North End Grill and of course Marta!
