Jamie Oliver’s Pizzeria is Unexpectedly Good

Airport dining isn’t usually known for surprises—especially not the pleasant kind—but Jamie Oliver's Pizzeria at KLIA Terminal 1 proved otherwise.

We ordered the Margherita Pizza (RM39) and were honestly quite impressed. The base was chewy, more than most Neapolitan pizzas I have had in KL, and the dough itself had flavour—seasoned just right with a subtle saltiness that brought the whole pie together.

The tomato sauce was fresh and bright, balanced by blobs of gooey melted cheese and a few torn basil leaves that added the right herbaceous lift. A touch of grated parmesan and cracked pepper over the top sealed the deal.

What really stood out, aside from the flavour, was the price—RM39 for a pizza this size and quality, at an airport, is a rare win. No inflated “airport premium” here, which makes it an even better deal considering this could easily pass for something served in the heart of KL.

We also ordered a Spanish Latte (RM21), which came in a cup big enough for two to share. It was creamy, mellow, and not overly sweet—just the way we like it. A nice complement to the savouriness of the pizza.
