Yummo! Mermaid is jumping

The warm weather colliding with the Easter hols has brought the locals out & the tourists in force.

Gotta love Mermaid with the beach running parallel to us it's time to jump on down to Amor, grab a takeout pizza or pasta or dine in, in our chic Italian atmosphere to the tunes of 'Volare' or something a little different like 'Eros Ramazzotti'.

We are handmaking all of our pizzas for anyone who appreciates quality & freshness in every single scrumptious bite :)

A pinch myself moment

Hi Everyone,

Just digging up some old shots of Rome and happened across this one

It was always 'a pinch myself moment when I happened to bicycle by or drive by this magnificent ampitheatre rising from the dirt.
Any ideas what it is?
AmoR loves RomA xx

Tell us what your fave is?

Pizza made by an Italian....

' that was one of the yummiest pizzas I've ever eaten'
  said Rose from Mermaid.

This is the pizza that Amor delivered to one very happy customer last night.

She called later in the evening to complement us.

Thanks Rose, our dough is handmade to a very special recipe. We use top quality toppings which are always fresh.

         None of our ingredients come from China-no offence but you can taste the difference....when a pizza is made by an Italian....

Savouring the Fragrance of Piazza Navona,Rome

The most delightful couple sat under our painting of Piazza Navona and recounted their tale of an evening spent in the piazza many years ago.

Let's call our Amor diners Carol and Thomas for the sake of our story.

Thomas spoke of a mild balmy late October evening in the company of his one true love Carol, sitting at a restaurant overlooking Bernini's largest fountain in the square. A talented elderly accordian player serenaded them to the tunes of 'Volare' and 'Amore'.

Thomas went on to describe the emotions he felt that evening engulfed in a passionate love affair with the woman he was yet to marry in a place he says 'amplified his love'.

We look forward to greeting this warm and happy couple again who undoubtedly will fragrant our table with more stories from Roma, our home away from home.

                    Ciao from Amor Mermaid Beach

Cloudy with a chance of Pizza

The Mermaid Beach residents are flocking through our doors and enjoying Amor's favourite pizzas.

Tonight why not indulge in the moods of the sea with a tasty marinara? 
or build your own with all of the toppings you love.

                                                We can't wait to see you at Amor

What's hot this Friday?

If you're looking for something to heat up your Friday evening then why not try our Arrabiata pasta?
It has stacks of chilly so you'll be guzzling down that acqua frizzante or vino.

Did you know that 'Arrabiata' in Italian means angry? Certainly suits the power of this dish.
It's not for the faint hearted either.

A Special Effect on Danny

'Danny said it's all too yummy I'm not sure what to have?'
 

So she decided on a plate of spaghetti marinara with our delicious garlic pizza bread as a starter washed down with a splash of white vino (brought from home).

She left feeling pleasantly satisfied.

Amor at mermaid beach can have this effect on you.

                                        Why not give it a try? x

Call all pasta lovers

Morning all,

Did you know that a tall man is more likely to order short pasta like penne or fusilli & a short woman is more likely to order a plate of long pasta like spaghetti or fettucine.

                                Interesting hey?? But in Amor's experience it is the truth...

Filling your tummy with Pasta

"Life is a combination of magic and pasta."

~ Federico Fellini

 

Amor's menu has a delicious choice of pastas. A true Italian eats pasta on a daily basis & just changes the type of sauces to suit.

 

Amor offers traditional spaghetti, lasagne, penne, tortellini & ravioli.

 

                                                        Is your tummy rumbling yet?
