Chardonnay white wine + Monastery Garden Arugula Jamón Pizza

The Chardonnay was a clean, unsweet white wine at 13–14% ABV, and the Monastery Garden Arugula Jamón Pizza is a wood-fired pizza topped with arugula and jamón. Yummy, shall we enjoy pizza and wine?~~

It's piled with arugula, so it tastes healthy too, and the crust is crispy, charred by the wood-fired oven! With wine~!! Eating pizza and drinking wine at a Jonggak hot spot with great atmosphere, you lose track of time, a great Jongno date bar. Very, very nice timing, hehe.

What does the homemade chipotle sauce taste like?

The chipotle sauce is a homemade sauce we ordered separately for dunking the pizza crust. Full of smoky flavor with a little spicy kick, perfect to finish the pizza! It really got my appetite going up, up, up. Hope you try it together~~~~
