La Porchetta - Mornington, Melbourne

Although La Porchetta is kind of a "fast food" type of pizza chain, with a whopping 80 outlets located in Melbourne alone, the food was decent and definitely of a standard that was above average.

                           Focaccia Ripiena Prosciutto Crudo
                        
                  
This consisted slices of bacon, together with olive oil, basil and mozarella, layered inside the homemade pizza crust. It was a tad too salty for my liking due to the combination of generous amounts of bacon and mozarella, but the large pizza at AUD$16.50 was still wiped clean off its plate anyway. (:


Aussie Pizza
I was initially slightly doubtful of this one. It's not common to find a sunny side up atop a pizza back at home. However, this made for a pleasant surprise. It was good! The egg made the some parts a bit moist, which went very well with the pizza bread on the whole.


Carbonara
Carbonara was average.


Cannelloni Seafood

 This Cannelloni was also delish with the seafood cooked in a creamy sauce and encased in the rectangular pasta sheet (with some placed on top also). The prawns and other seafood were a bit small in size, but bearing in mind that this is a resaturant outlet from a fast food chain type, I was pretty content. (:
