Kids’ menu? No
General kid friendliness of menu: Even the small pizzas are quite large, so you may
end up taking a couple slices home with you.

terms.

Best dishes for kids: There are the usual pies, such as Pepperoni pizza and Hawaiian
pizza, but there are also creative ones, like the pumpkin mushroom apple pizza.
Kids’ play area? No, but stroll around Houhai. Kids will love the larger-than-life
cotton candy sold at snack carts. Or hop on a rickshaw for a quick tour of the Drum and Bell Tower.

Must-order item: Parma ham topped with parmesan cheese and made-to-order brown butter chocolate chip cookies from Cookies Cookies (the bakery next door) for dessert.
In a nutshell: Mouthwatering square, thin-crust pizzas with creative or traditional toppings to suit your taste, with reasonable prices to boot..Seeking out the secluded hutong location will feel like quite the adventure for the kids.
