(SPOT.ph) For fans of weekend markets like the ones at Legazpi and Salcedo Villages, one great reason to keep coming back is discovering local, homegrown food businesses you might not have known about otherwise. A downside though is having to wait for the weekend to get a taste of your favorites—so we're always glad to hear weekend-market regulars branching out for a more permanent space, like Pizza Morena which is now open at Corner Market.
Pizza Morena by Jenny Diaz first started at Balik Bukid Fair in Sta. Rosa, Laguna, before branching out to Legazpi Weekend Market, Salcedo Weekend Market, and other fairs. Pizza Morena is keeping the same menu of brick-oven pizzas made with fresh, local produce at Corner Market, like their signature Morena (P350) pizza with pistachios, mozzarella, mascarpone, honey, and truffle oil; and Margherita (P300) with tomato sauce, mozzarella, and basil—and they've added a few exclusives, too, like a Burrata Salad and Sausage Stuffing with Cranberries and Gravy, a special for the holiday season. Don't forget to try their famous Hot Honey!
Pizza Morena is at Corner Market, 2/F The Podium, 12 ADB Avenue, Ortigas, Mandaluyong City.
