The £8.20, or around $9.82, Melanzane Alla Parmigiana dish features layers of eggplant, mozzarella, basil, Parmigiano cheese, and tomato all slowly baked together in Da Mario's pizza oven.
I was also a huge fan of this appetizer, as were my friends Ekin and Katie — who helped me test Da Mario's dishes. The tomato sauce was especially delicious, adding some lightness to the rich and savory eggplant.
"It's very cheesy, very rich — perfect comfort food," Katie said.
"I love that they're not stingy on the cheese here," Ekin added.
