Alice’s Pizza: Neighbourhood joint with water mimosa pizzas

Much like burgers, pizzas have become a near-universal food that each locality will have a take on. Before you point your finger at the delicious but blasphemous pizzas of Pizza Company, those pizzas don’t really have Thai-style ingredients or tastes. But if you want to taste how good a Thai take on pizzas can be, Alice’s Pizza is a great spot to try.

Here’s what they are offering and their story.

Thai fusion cuisine like water mimosa pizzas

Alice’s Pizza headliner is their water mimosa pizzas. The vegetable, called pak krachet (ผักกระเฉด) in Thai, is a stringy vegetable typically found in Thai stir-fries. The veg is known for its delicious crunch. And Alice’s Pizza perfectly marries the wok stir-fried dish with the oven-baked pizza. 

To prevent the water mimosa from being soggy and wilted, the chef cooks the vegetables separately from the pizza. So while the cheese and pizza bake in the oven, the chef whips out his wok and stir-fries the water mimosa to get the perfect crunch.

Their other breadwinner pizza is the salmon zaab (แซลมอนแซ่บ). This one is salmon with Thai herbs and a Thai seafood sauce dip offering a spicy and tangy cut through the grease. 

The pizzeria also offers other Thai fusion dishes like water mimosa spaghetti as well. 

Started as a delivery and food truck

Alice’s Pizza started as a pizza delivery with one woodfire oven in a home. The oven came from the chef-owner Gunn’s previous failed restaurant. 

The humble pizza delivery soon gained popularity, no doubt from their interesting water mimosa fusion pizza. Soon they were able to get two food trucks that stopped by food fairs and events. You can still follow their trucks from their Facebook page. 

Today, they have a more permanent home near Bangkok Hospital. 

A quiet eatery with homecooked vibes

The quiet restaurant is low-key and quite hidden away in a small soi next to Bangkok Hospital. Tucked between two houses, you could barely tell this was a restaurant if not for the neon sign. 

The humble modern setting will have you feel as if you’ve stepped into a local family restaurant run by your next-door neighbours. The fact that the dishes are homecooked and the staff are friendly only compounds that feeling further. 

Try this Thai-fusion pizzeria with neighbourhood vibes

You know what you’re getting yourself into if you visit Alice’s Pizza. You’re not getting authentic Italian pizzas from an Italian chef. You’re getting a Thai-fusion pizza made with Thai ingredients on a bed of thin, crispy pizza.

Pizza has become so universal, you owe it to yourself to give this unique take on it a try.
