Is this the case elsewhere? 10pm is probably pasta their bedtime. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONKMAN Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Oro is the best pizza in Glasgow. Mamma mia.Oro is probably the best overall, but the Scozzese (Italian sausage and Stornaway black pudding) from La Vita is a thing of beauty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 I have to concur with everyone by saying the best pizzas are from wee Italian takeaways. When I lived in Leith I’d go to Eatalias, very nice. La Favorita is great as well but a sit down restaurant more than a takeaway, A few years ago when I worked for a large Edinburgh based banking group, we had a major IT issue (common occurrence) which took several days and nights of working to resolve. One night th shift manager got told by a higher up to order pizza for everyone on the company Amex. The guy asked how many people were in working, he was told about 50, so he ordered FIFTY large Dominos pizzas to be delivered, along with twenty five assorted sides. I couldn’t believe the restaurant took the order but for the rest of the week (it was my last week IIRC) there were discarded minging pizzas around the office. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Some really scorching takes on this thread atm. Not having it that the independent Italian restaurants and takeaways are the best at making pizza. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 My local Italian is annoying because its does brilliant pizza and terrible pasta [emoji20]This is off-topic but I'm always reluctant to get pasta from anywhere that isn't my kitchen. If it's even the tiniest bit too soft then I want to spew. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiegoDiego Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Most pasta dishes are a piece of piss to make. I don't understand why people who only eat out once in a while order something they can easily make at home (see also burgers). Why not order something you'd never normally have?NB I'm talking about orders at mid-range sit down, book a table places, not your local pub or takeaway. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you like them, charge on son, don't let anyone tell you any different. On 08/12/2020 at 14:46, Rugster said: WHAT'S THE POINT YOU'LL JUST IGNORE THE RECOMMENDATION AND NOT GO!!!!! My dear Rugster, I have come close to visiting, but I chose train home rather than a 3rd bloody Uber back from Edinburgh that year alone.

If you could pick me up one as well, thanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SANTAN Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 You thought my green dot to red dot ration was bad thus far.. The correct Star Wars order in best films to worst coming from someone that watched them all for the first time in 2019. 3, 6, 9, 5, 1, 7, 4, 8, 2 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye on one level I'm sure that for example the lasagna in a good Italian restaurant is going to be fantastic, but even if it's going to be far better in the restaurant I can make lasagna myself any time I like. If I'm going out for a meal I want to eat something I'm not likely to be cooking myself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed to a degree & they were the same people who saw nothing wrong with said accents & were also trolling Kelly Marie Tran. Are you seriously trying to say that fans of Star Wars all think exactly the same way with regards to race issues? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
