Pizza Making at Bunga Bunga Battersea
If like me, you're not one to wait for the weekend, then Bunga Bunga is the place for a little midweek fun.
They've got party pizza venues in both southwest London and Covent garden but my local, in Battersea closes on a Wednesday night in favour of educating the locals on the art of pizza making.
We were the first ones in and quickly made ourselves comfortable. I'd never been to Bunga Bunga before but I already knew I'd like to come back within ten minutes of arriving. Even empty, I loved the vibe; and the quirky and cool Italian decor. I just knew it was going to be a fun place to spend a Friday.
I decided that it was not going to be a quiet Wednesday night so after our welcome drinks, we ordered a bottle of prosecco which arrived just in time to be enjoyed with a plate of antipasti - the perfect accompaniment!
The classes are £35pp and they have a bottomless option for £55 but for the amount I drink, bottomless is hardly ever worth it so a bottle between the two of us was great!
Nathan was our awesome host for the evening and he and Chef John made everyone feel very comfortable. They did a great job in getting everyone involved whilst bouncing off each other all evening - they were a huge part of why we had such a great time.
After watching how it was done, we donned our aprons and had a go at making the dough ourselves. Quite a simple task but alot of fun to get stuck in to plus the simplicity meant I had one hand spare to drink with whilst I mixed the pre-measured ingredients with the other, an impressive skill I know.
Whilst our dough was bagged up ready to take home, we were given a pre-proved ball to stretch into shape and smother with toppings.
I swapped David his veg for my pepperoni and off they went to the oven - only to be demolished within seconds of coming out.
Somehow our table won 'best dough' (must have been my one handed dough rolling) which meant a round of shots to finish the an already super evening!
The pizza making was not particularly skillful or insightful but this was one of the most entertaining and enjoyable cookery classes I've ever done. We were first to arrive and last to leave so that should tell you something.
The Italian food and karaoke bar here is a vibe! The Italian hosts were very funny, needed to down a couple of drinks to get in the mood to sing on the stage. Moreover, from us you can avail reliable Furniture Moving Services in Montreal QC, and surrounding areas.
