Some may think that Pizza is all about the double cheese thick oily base, and that the best time to enjoy it is lounged back at home in front of the T.V.  However it has not always been the case. For years we have continued to change the recipes and given us the perception that this is how it should be. This perception is wrong. I was shown today the true balance that should be recaptured to each of you to how a true Pizza should be. Naples, Italy invented the pizza 200 years ago where it was to be a nutritious and healthy meal. That's right I said Healthy.

To good for my ears to be hearing such things, I must find this place  Firechief Pizzeria is celebrating their first birthday and what a great opportunity to seize this moment and get my own taste.  With high ceilings and simple yet perfect outlay had a fantastic family, friendly feel. As the walk way takes you to the top of their dining area the enchanting chandelier hangs low setting a somewhat rustic feel. Tables overflowed with diners gorging in pizza and pasta and having a great time. An evening with friends and the beginning to the weekend the unwind began with a cocktail in hand. A fresh and berrylicious Little red ridding hood - strawberry liquor, blackcurrant and vodka was a delightful relaxant. Scannin...
