How come mediterraneo is on many of the lists when they've only just opened? how did they manage to get nominated for so many categories? hmmm......

There's also been a big debate about their prices recently, so maybe their on people's minds.

They got on because they were nominated. In the absence of other choices and other nominations, I included, largely, what was submitted.

Its been a pizza week. Did Hello three nights ago because it was easy and cheap. Just did the NY style pizza again Wed night with a crowd of pizza lovers. It was pretty good. Also did Jimix last week.. it was OK - but I would not rave about it and the other dishes - salads etc. .were small and expensive.

Was going to say "Da Marco" but isnt he still in jail?

How did PIZZA HUT get a mention....??? I am loosing my faith in some people.

Casanova does a mean pizza (not too many people know this), as does Jimix (even though there has been managment changes there of late). That's Amore also does a rocking "quattro formaggi", and Pasta Fresca Salvatore is also good value.

NY style pizza and Hello Pizza ... ??? Best Pizza in town is a hard one.

I will go for NY style if my stomach wants to try some American cheesy en oily pizza. For good Italian pizza, I will go for DaMarco. It has adequate toppings en the pizzy looks purely simple. Love it.

Hello pizza is cheap but the taste is....well..

Pizza hut is aweful but lots of Chinese love eating there...PapaJohns is far better then Pizza Hut tho their ones are way tooooooo oily en salty.

Yeah thats amore deserves to be mentioned here tho the location is a bit hidden to me.
