Usually I eat Pizzas in restaurants or occasionally from a take away place such as Dominos. I am not really a fan of shop bought pizzas finding the base sometimes has the taste and texture of soggy cardboard, and the toppings a bit stingy and never getting to the edge. A while back I tried Dr Oetker's Bistro range which were small lunchtime sized pizza baguettes, so upon my last visit to Sainsburys I purchased ...
Advantages: Very tasty Disadvantages: High in calories and fat
This has to be one of my favourite frozen pizza's. The pizzas are made by Dr Oetker and are a German company. There are many different flavours of the pizza mozzerela, ham and pineapple and many other flavours. In my opinion the mozzerela has to be the nicest one. The packaging is a simple cardboard box with a pizza on the front and Dr Oetkar's Ristorante Pizza is written on the front. The ingreidents and cooking instructions are written on the back in english and many other different languages.
The pizza costs about £2 for one but they usually go on offer and you can get them for a £1. The pizzas have quite a thin base and are thickly topped with cheese. They also contain garlic which makes them lovely. They take about fifteen minutes to cook in a gas or eletric oven. The base is crispy and the cheese goes golden brown when cooked ...
Advantages: Fantastic atmosphere and friendly staff Disadvantages: You want to go back - again and again and again......
Verdes Ristorante and Pizzeria
LANCASTER
Writing a restaurant review is very difficult.
Different people look for different things in a restaurant.
As far as I am concerned what I look for is a good atmosphere, a good menu selection, good value for money, friendly and helpful staff, but mainly it needs to be a restaurant that I want to visit again, and again.
This is certainly the case with Verdes Ristorante and Pizzeria which has been a popular family run restaurant in Lancaster for many years.
The restaurant is situated in the centre of town in Church Street, it's open seven days a week from 11.30am to 10.30pm for meals or just a tea or coffee.
Verdi's is a traditional Italian eatery that uses fresh quality ingredients and uses only De Ceccio pasta.
De Ceccio is one of the best pastas ...

Manufacturer's product description
The Orologio occupies the ground floor of a buff-colored building with restrained detailing and leaded-glass windows. The restaurant has 19th-century French-provincial chairs and an ice chest displaying salads and condiments. Amusing illustrations advertise the dishes -- a mermaid draws your attention to the fish courses, although the menu features more meat courses. In September and October there's an emphasis on game and mushroom dishes such as the filet of venison with porcini mushrooms or the platter of venison for two. Pheasant dishes are also well prepared. Of all the restaurants we've recommended in Lugano, this one draws the most mixed reaction. Some locals swear by it and some foreign visitors sound its praise; others would have preferred to be sent elsewhere.
