Compo 10,328 Posted April 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 Is it "Papa John's" that is advertising a special offer of 2 x pizzas for £19.99 on TV just now? Well, I can make one for a few pence 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nonnaB 4,895 Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 Compi don't know about pappa Johns's pizzas . We don't have them here. Home made cost nothing and you know what goes into them. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Compo 10,328 Posted April 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 I might try "Rasta" on my next pizza, Nonna. Dreadlock and tomato would go nicely with mozarella. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

philmayfield 6,115 Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 We used to go to La Bucca regularly. We once hired the whole restaurant for a Sherwood Flying Club evening where a gourmet menu was served. We all thoroughly enjoyed it apart from our secretary who complained about rabbit being served. Apparently his family virtually lived on rabbit during the war and he vowed he would never touch it again! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nonnaB 4,895 Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 Was it Luigi? He always had a sort of smile on his face. If it was Giorgio he maybe didn't understand the English sense of humour. He was the quieter one. Luigi always preferred to be centre of everything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LizzieM 9,507 Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 We go in La Capanna regularly, it’s a cosy restaurant with good old-fashioned Italian fare. The remaining owner, Luigi, doesn’t smile too much and he doesn’t put up with any nonsense. We were in there a few weeks ago and he had a war of words with a lairy diner, it’s good to have entertainment while enjoying your dinner! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
