One of the hardest challenge my friends and I have when in elbi is deciding where to eat. We pretty much have explored almost all food vendors within the vicinity during the first sem. The one day, just before my Saturday Gradschool class started, I was talking to a classmate of mine who is a local social entrepreneur doing all the social marketing of some of the establishments around elbi.
Then he mentioned "Auntie Pearl's Pizza". Who, according to him comes close to the taste of "Amici" Italian Resto in Makati.
So after class today, My cousin and I checked out where "Auntie Pearl's Pizza" is. And we found it!

The customers' testimonials are very inviting!

So we ordered the "Loaded" Flavored Pizza something.
And two pastas for my cousin and me
 | |
| The Meatball something |
 |
| Carbonara |
We had 10 inch pizza, 2 pastas, a soda and Iced Tea and we only paid for 300+ only. Not bad!
(Plus, we were not able to finish up the pastas because we're both really bloated and we had to hit the spa really soon!Lol!)
So, here are the tips for first-timers:
- The pizza is home made and it takes 20 minutes or so to make it so make sure you have time to kill when you go there.
- Yes, taste is close to Amici's but the place isn't. So don't hope for cushioned chairs when you go there.
- You may want to double check with the staff if they really got your order right. They forgot my Carbonara, but good thing there are few customers during that time so they had time to make it asap for me.
- They serve burgers as well, with really huge patties! I didn't think they were patties at first when the cook took it out to grill it, they look like round, pinkish, baby round pillows from afar.
- They serve beer!!!
Sorry, was not able to get the business hours, the contact numbers or website. Was just there to see and eat it for myself.
Auntie Pearl's Pizza is located inside Demarses. Coming from UPLB, turn right and see intersection at Ellen's Fried Chicken Building. Then turn left, pass Baan Thai (Authentic thai resto) on the left side of the road, go straight ahead. The place is right after a diner.
