All that dancing can work up an appetite, so get ready to tuck into a freshly made pizza. The Margherita delighted us with its saucy simplicity, showcasing the mouth-watering mix of tomato, mozzarella, and basil in each bite.

The Mushroom pizza’s ingredients worked together in perfect harmony. With mushrooms, peppery rocket, crunchy pine nuts, and a delicate drizzle of truffle oil, every slice made for quite the sumptuous symphony. 

And then, there was the 'Nduja Burrata pizza – a masterpiece that mixed creamy burrata with the fiery kick of 'nduja. Topped with fresh greens, it was a real showstopper.
