He's genuinely Italian (not like those awful fake Italians that seem to be everywhere you look these days) and is chronically happy in the most relaxed and infectious way. And hells, why wouldn't he be when he's blessed with the God-given talent to create the most awe-inspiringly, pants-wettingly delicious pizzas in Sydney? You may guess from that little paean that this is my go-to 'za joint and you'd guess right. None of this pan base crap. No bike wheel-thin, brittle dough with an artisan scraping of tomato sauce and three pieces of gourmet pepperoni. These bad boys are dripping with love and quality toppings, stacked high with colour and juice and topped with tasty cheese and chilli flakes and those ace little Italian anchovies I can't get enough of. My fave is The Special with pretty much everything and the kitchen sink on it. But NO PINEAPPLE. God help you if you order pineapple on a pizza. What are we, Polynesian cavemen? It's cheap, too. 2 families feeds three of us with lunch left over the next day. Boom. All hail Antos, king of pizza parlours!

Thankfully, Benjamin said most of it for me. The only thing I will add is that their Vegetarian options are also unparalleled and they will happily change toppings for you, or you can create your own. P.s. PINEAPPLE ON PIZZA FOR LIFE! *shakes fist at sky*

And colour me happy when flipping through the Entertainment Book, I found a voucher for 2-4-1 large pizzas. Yes thank you! Then upon calling to order, I was told they had a special on dessert pizzas - $5 for a sticky date delight - oh done deal! Everything from the simple Supreme to the more adventurous seafood numbers are surprising and delicious combinations of the freshest ingredients. Past favourites include: Cranberry (Smoked chicken breast, bacon, avocado, cherry tomatoes and feta, with cranberry sauce), Prosciutto: (Thinly sliced prosciutto, green capsicum, avocado, Tasmanian brie and sun dried tomato pesto) and Vege Lovers: (Chargrilled eggplant, mushrooms, green capsicum and marinated artichoke hearts, with basil pesto and grated parmesan). Nb. gluten free bases are available. Whenever I order pizzas, I always ask them to go light on the cheese, but for the slightly more health conscious, these guys have Heart Foundation Tick Approved pizzas. Be warned: you'll realise how much salt and sugar must go into pizza bases, but other than that they're actually quite delicious. Now, leave me while I go and devour my sticky date dessert pizza. Oh my!

He tells me that it is the closest to his home regards to authencity. I just know that it is easily one of my favourite pizzas places in Australia. The dough has a slight chewy consistency. It is very light and the best thing? It is woodfired! The quality of ingredients is there. The flavours are simple but spot on. Pricewise, it is pricier than most places. They only have one size, which is the large which averages around $25 each. Every Monday, their pizzas are $15 which I think is a bargain for such tasty and quality pizzas. I highly recommend this place.

At a minimum you'll get a booming 'CIAO BELLA' as you push through the front door and if you're lucky Ercole will pretty much join your table for a chat as you dine. It must be this distinctly Italian, friendly service that has made La Botte a Willoughby institution for many, many years. The cuisine here is classic Italian but my personal favourite is their thin crust pizzas (which is how traditional Italian pizza should be made). The ambience is more 'home style' than fine dining but that is what a local Italian should feel like in my book.
