Forget Dominos, it's all about Four Star Pizza! I ordered my first ever Four Star Pizza last night…read moreand I don't think I'll ever look back. There's loads of benefits to ordering Four Star - First up if you order online and spend over £30 your order is discounted by 20%. They also have far greater choice and a more creative menu than Dominos. We went for the 16 inch 'Feed the Meater' pizza which at £17 was a snip. Jam packed with chicken and pepperoni and easily foldable we definitely made the manly choice. You can order you pizzas as part of a meal deal and get even further discount on side orders. We went for wedges (a little soggy) and curly fries. The sides weren't great to be honest but sides rarely travel well so we'll let them off. Another bonus is the order arrived with us about 15 minutes after ordering - the shop is only about 5 minutes away but that service is still super speedy. All in all a good takeaway - really greasy so if you're health conscious you may want to swerve it but if you're having a few beverages on a Saturday night it's spot on. Keep an eye on your post box too - they are constantly sending out good deals.

Today is National Pizza day and I had the privilege of spending a couple of hours with Scott, who…read morealong with his wife Jamie, own 6 Four Star Pizza shops in North,South,East and West #Belfast as well as #Newtownabbey and #Carrick. Scott told me that his love for Pizza grew from his various trips to the #USA where he learnt about pizza. He then came back to #NI and met Jamie and opened 1st store in East #Belfast in 1999 after working for another well known #Pizza chain. They've never looked back. They are both hands on and it's 7 days a week and long hours-they've about 150 staff!! Four Star head office is in #Dublin and is owned by the #Fitzwilliam #hotel group. Running a pizza shop isn't cheap but I can say that each #oven is £25k and this shop has two. The pizzas and all other food takes 5 1/4 minutes to go through at 475oF. The big #USP is that Four Star have #doughologists. In Newtownabbey The doughologist is called Robyn and she is responsible for preparing fresh dough daily. They use strong wheat flour from Neill's, who are celebrating 150 years this year. Water and oil is mixed with salt, sugar and flour and then yeast and mixed for 15 minutes. The dough then proves for 48 hours before use. For #glutenfree there are rice flour bases. All the other ingredients are freshly delivered by Musgrave so all ingredients are locally sourced and traceable. Scott was saying the menu changes four times a year and this year they are using a local relish Ballymaloe. I had the opportunity of making tonight's dinner!! I made a #pepperoni pizza (kids), a spicy #chicken on (for my wife) and a super hot #chorizo and #jalapeno pizza for me.....mmmmm Finally Scott made me a "#flip" which is a thin base with sauce, #pulledpork, jalapeño and #sriracha and folded over and cooked-it is cheeseless. It tasted great!!!! Big thanks to Scott and Jamie for arranging this. Also if you order online directly or call you will get better deals than if you use Just Eat. Scott and Jamie are also very good at helping local #charities.

We went for the 9inch Bolognese along with chilli cheese garlic bread which was just incredible. The bolognese was generously topped with flavoursome mince meat, mushrooms and onions. Value wise Pizzaworks is fantastic. £11 for a pizza, sides and garlic bread! The ordering process is great too! We ordered over the phone after looking at their menu online. It only took 15 minutes for everything to be ready to be collected. There was a real buzz about the restaurant when I went to collect, every table was occupied and there was a queue for collection. Love this place and I will definitely be back!

Last night we finally dined at the newly opened Mama Masala Glengormley . My 5 year old daughter,…read morewife and I dined and we were missing my 9 year old, who was at a friends party but gave us strict instructions to bring her back a pepperoni pizza!! I've dined in the original Mama Masala Londonderry (owned by the same owners) and really enjoyed it so was looking forward to tasting the food! I've been following the journey of this new restaurant avidly (Metamorphosis ) and have written about the Story. Whilst we looked at the extensive Indian and Italian menu we nibbled on fresh, crisp poppadoms served with three sweet dips/chutneys. The menu was a very well thought out and well designed one and there were plenty of dishes to choose from!! We chose Vegetable samosa and garlic prawns to start and my little one wanted her chicken nuggets and chips!! My wife also had a mojito which she said was delicious. The presentation of both the prawns and samosas was very elegant and appetising. The 2 large king prawns were served butterflied, with tails on and in a rich, garlic sauce and were amazing. The three filo samosas looked a bit oily and when we cut into them discovered they had meat in them. We flagged this up and the staff were very apologetic and the proprietor Gagan personally served us fluffy perfect Punjabi vegetable samosas. These were exactly like one gets in Punjab itself and delicious suffice to say!! The portion size and taste of the nuggets and chips was excellent. For main course my wife opted for the chicken penne and I the rara gosht with Mama Masala Nan. When these were served it was quite literally a "wow" moment. The pasta was served in a large dish, the lamb in a deep oval dish and there was plenty in each. What really struck us was the authenticity, the very generous quality meat content (chicken breast, lots of tender chunks of lamb interspersed with minced lamb or keema) and the flavours!!! The pasta was in a creamy, yet not too heavy sauce with a nice touch of sun dried tomatoes and basil. The rara gosht is certainly one of the best Indian dishes I've ever had, even my wife loved it and she's not a big lamb eater. The nan was soft, full of flavour (Chillies and coriander) and was ideal with the lamb and pasta!! The dish was full of flavour and spice and not oily or sweet or artificially coloured. This was the real McCoy!! Our waiter remembered that we had ordered a pepperoni pizza to take and he duly presented it to us as we were leaving. The venue was superb, the staff were tremendous and the food was exceptional. I can now say that this will be a firm favourite of ours and is highly commended!!

Café Alfresco in Glengormley is one of a branch of two, the other being in the massive Abbeycentre…read moreshopping complex a mile or so down the road. The one in the Abbeycentre always seems to flat out busy. This one, in Glengormley, is not. To me, I find it a wonder that it still lives, even though it's been fairly likeable any time me or the clan has been in. There is a current drive to regenerate Glengormley - much needed - and I can only hope that places like here live long enough to see it, because it really is quite good. There's no extravagance, no overpriced dishes. It's nice and bright inside, and the service is friendly. It's not often I would order a steak when I'm out, and I would consider pepper sauce to be predictable and boring - but here, it's hard to fault otherwise. A couple of days ago, I was walking past and decided to peruse the menu (I make a point of this with any restaurant I walk past - I might pop out for a pint of milk, get distracted and be gone for two hours sometimes) - the menu wasn't displayed, just an A-board saying 'Tonight - Serving Only Pizzas and Side Dishes.' Oh God, I thought - could this be the beginning of the end? Have they laid off everybody but the 17 year old KP? Or, are all the staff out celebrating the fact that they've destroyed their quarterly targets? Hopefully the latter.

Cafe Alfresco and its takeaway Pizzarella has a 'deep pan' approach to pizza. Unlike the more…read moretraditional thin crust that you might be used to on pizza, they do things a bit differently. They also make sure you get a good helping of cheese on the pizza, which is great at the time of eating it, but maybe a little bit of a regret come bed time. My favourite pizza from here has to be the meat feast. It is just covered with as many different types of meat that you could possibly think could go on a pizza. It actually has full rashers of bacon on it, which I have to admit is something special. They cook their pizza in a traditional pizza oven, which adds another depth to the flavor of the pizza, and they do a fairly efficient delivery service too. Pizza prices range from £3 to £7.50 and feature two sizes, 9" and 12".

We didn't know so much back then! Over time, we stopped going to Papa's Kitchen and started going to other takeaways instead, but I revisited this place a few months ago and to be honest I wasn't that impressed. It was ok, don't get me wrong. There was nothing offensive about it. It was just a bit...meh. The chips were forgettable to say the least and it says a lot that I literally cannot remember what else I ordered! With the amount of takeaways available in Glengormley, Papa's Kitchen has kind of faded away a bit over recent years. If I were you, I'd probably go to Pizzarella for all my pizza needs and the Thornton for chips.

For great quality food you'd find a much better priced take away offering some amazing mid week deals. Don't let me be the judge, compare them yourself and you'll see what I mean. It's an easy winner.
