Good Life..Good Pizza

Bonjour! It has been over a week since I last posted now! Things are getting a bit busier as it gets closer to the end of the year.

Last week, my friend, LT, and I went to Glenelg to buy some sports gear, but then I was feeling rather peckish from the money spending! As we haven't had pizza for a while, we decided to try out Goodlife Modern Organic Pizza - a lot of people have been talking about them, giving rather positive feedback. There are 3 different locations in total; one in Glenelg (which is the one that this review will be based on), one on Hutt Street and the other one in North Adelaide.

The first time around, we actually walked right past the restaurant without realising where it was. The tricky thing about this particular joint is that it is located on Level 1 (so that yes, there are stairs involved ~ I guess it gives you a slight workout before reaching there =P) and the name isn't that particularly obvious. The bottom of the stairs is quite dark so you really need to keep an eye out, otherwise you will miss it.

As we weren't  overly hungry, we decided to order one large pizza (a 2-person pizza, i.e. 12-inch) to share. Unfortunately, they don't do half-&-half pizzas (i.e. two flavours on one pizza) - there were a couple of different ones I definitely wanted to try. We ended up ordering a duck pizza:

Free-range roasted duck with shitake mushroom and spring onion ginger jam

It was absolutely mouth-watering and delicious! The smell wafting from the pizza as it was brought to our table already awaken our tastebuds, sending them to overdrive. The duck was really nice ~ soft and tender. The crust on the pizza is done very well; it was thin and the outer crust was very crispy and has a very nice texture contrasted to the soft delicious centre-filling. My favourite thing on the pizza though was the spring onion ginger jam! If any of you have tried Hainanese Chicken Rice before, the jam reminds me of the flavours of the spring onion and ginger dip that comes with the rice, except the one on top of the pizza is slightly sweet, making it very nice. After having one bite, it leaves you wanting more.

Overall, the service was good - the waiter and waitress came back often enough, checking orders, drinks and asked how everything was. I definitely recommend that you try this pizza joint out; I will certainly be back to try the others.
