A CHEAP vs EXPENSIVE PIZZA in LONDON!
Vložit
- čas přidán 12. 11. 2023
- My first pizza video on the channel. Now, I'll be honest... I do like pizza but it's not one of my favourite things to eat but as I haven't done a review like this on the channel so far, I thought it would be a good time to get one done and do a price comparison between two. How does an £8.50 pizza compare with a £26 pizza in Central London?

Cheaper pizza looked tons nicer. Hope you enjoyed your food Gary, looked lovely. Another crackin review 👍
Thank you Andrew. Did enjoy it, all the best!
The second pizza looked much better to me.
And, yes, I love olives now too - I used to hate them!
I think I’d rather have the second pizza tbh!
Another enjoyable video. Thanks.
More than welcome. Thank you!
Yeah 2nd one for me 😋
2nd one by far. you could buy 2 dif pizzas for less than the one from the other place and its still much cheaper. @@GaryEats
@@GaryEats I would go for the expensive one,the sauce and the kinde of dough is wot makes a great pizza.when you commented on the expensive pizza being a bit thin,to be honest a traditional pizza is ment to be thin and always a lot tastier
Olives are an aquired taste. I find. I really disliked them as a kid but can eat an entire dish of them now.
Ditto blue cheese. I really disliked stilton until I tried it again when i was about 18.
Tastebuds do mature.
I would go for the second pizza (no olives though!) because I like mine with more cheese on it. There wasnt enough melted cheese on the first one for my liking. I love your reviews Gary, found you a couple of days ago and i think i've watched them all now! Thank you
Sounds great! Thank you for watching all of the videos. Are you not bored of seeing my face yet?
@@GaryEats no problem. ha ha not yet! :-)
You will mate haha. All the best.
@@GaryEats ha ha!, thank you. All the best to you too :-)
By the way, actually Italian pizza usually is purposefully covered in olive oil. It’s usually dripping. Never understood why people think that’s a bad sign for pizza.
Is it actually usually?! Have you considered the fact that the overwhelming majority of the world’s pizza eating populous are brought up on local variations and interpretations not native to Italy? While I’m sure some exist, I can’t name one pizza place in my local area who drizzle their pizzas with olive oil.
I can never understand why pizzas are so expensive as they are made with minimal amounts of ingredients and cooked in minutes.
The second one is better by far by on looks alone.
Notice your subs are 10.5k already 👏😉
Yes that would put me off too. Don't get me wrong, I like pizza, but all the while I'd be thinking that I could be getting a top notch curry for that much money
Ditto.
I totally agree a margherita pizza is half a toasted cheese and tomato sandwich🤣and as much as I like pizza I'd rather make my own but some don't mind shelling out and like yourself the cost baffles me👍
@@martindunstan8043 for me - and I believe even Italians themselves - pizza is a humble, even street food. It isn't an event food, although people have tried to market it that way. If I'm going to truly spoil myself and spaff 30 quid on a meal by myself it ain't gonna be pizza
@@PotatoPirate123 ah c'mon, for £30 you would get an extra olive! Party time🤣👍
Thanks Gary, your jokes are just as bad as mine😂
Another excellent very informative video I don’t live in London but I have worked in London, and I have ran the London Marathon 10 times! So it’s always very useful to know about some great places you can eat! And your channel does exactly what it says on the tin, excellent once again Gary!
Glad you enjoyed it David. You can see why I didn't get into comedy can't you? Haha. All the best mate.
Great to see a pizza video, the salami Parmesan and rocket pizza looked amazing, that being said, the 2nd pizza for the price you paid in London was fantastic value! Thank you for another great video Gary!
Thanks Matty. I haven't done one yet so thought it would be a great time to start!
Second pizza for me Gary, they actually put cheese on it compared to the expensive one! Don't like olives though but that's just me. Only just discovered your channel pal, gotta say, relaxed, honest, no clickbait or bullsh1t and keeping it real. A format to stick by. Congratulations on a fast growing channel.
Yep, that's fair enough mate. Thanks for watching!
Once again you get what you pay for, the expensive one definitely. Respect to the second one, that was a great price. I could not have eaten the 1st on it's own, definitely for two. Love olives, adore olive oil. Once again great show Gary.
Good call mate. I happen to agree with you :) Olives are fantastic. Thank you!
Great video Gary, keep them coming!
Thanks, will do James!
Hi Gary. I just found this new video of yours, am shocked it didn’t spot it for so long. Tremendous heartfelt review, this is what I enjoy so much. It’s great to have the comparison, some expensive pizza are amazing, some cheap ones are great, some not so hot.
Thanks Dale. Really appreciate it and glad you finally found it!
Good review Gary, doing a great job, keep it up. Pizza number one for me! 🍕
Thanks Ryan. Which one did you prefer? 👍
Hello again Gary another great video and congratulations on reaching over 10.000 subs well deserved
Kind of you Ray. Thanks mate!
The second pizza looked better i dont like pepperoni but i think it had a bit more charring. More cheese also. Nice video again 😊
Thanks for watching!
Great review, I really appreciate the compare and contrast. Thanks.
Thank you mate!
New to your Channel Gary!
Been binge watching all Sunday!
Keep up the great content mate! 👊🏻
Welcome aboard Lee. Thanks for going back and watching my old videos. You must be bored of my face by now? Haha. Thanks for watching!
Love your videos Gary I’ve been watching for a few weeks now . A thin pizza is definitely a positive the thinner the better 😊
Thank you for watching my videos Neil. Glad you liked the pizza!
Another good review Gary. The more expensive pizza was 12 square inches per £ and the cheaper pizza was 13 square inches per £ - not much cheaper! Once again your instincts proved correct. Keep up your good work, Philip
Exactly! Thanks for watching Philip.
But that doesn't take into account height - the amount of topping
Well said Richard - are you a Chartered Surveyor by any chance?@@richardmortimer2019
Really like what your doing with the comparisons great content
Lets give it a GO 👍👍👍👍
Thank you Keigan :)
Another cracking video Gary, both Pizzas looked great, but for my money No. 2 would have been just right! Glad you 'gave it a go' x 2 in this episode!
Thanks mate. All the best Dan 👍
New to the channel and also new to olives this year 😊
I agree, I just can't get enough of them! Keep up the good work and content 👏
Hello Leonardo. Glad you're liking the channel!
Fantastic review as always-they get better and better! It was really fascinating seeing you enjoy the two experiences, and explain the differences between the two. HomeSlice looks amazing and succulent with great quality tomato sauce, however Icco looks really interesting too. I may go for Icco if I had to choose. I really love olives ever since the day I first tasted them when I was rather young.
Thank you so much Monica. Glad you also like olives.
@@GaryEats🙏🏼 Happy Diwali to you and all!
First pizza was way too expensive for some dough and toppings, although you said the flavours were good. (But so they should for the price). Second one was good value, and at the end of the day, a pizza isn't fine dining, it's to fill you up.
Very good point Graeme. Thanks for watching!
Sometimes the best food is the highest quality of a few basic ingredients.
Idk that looks pretty spectacular..
It was a 20" pizza. Its huge.
First pizza madness 🤣 price is way to high and 20inch is bit to much for one person
Discovered ICCO by accident about 15 years ago whilst trying to get a good photo of the BT Tower.It became our family's first (and last) stop on arriving at nearby Euston when visiting London.Fantastic Pizzas and so affordable
Excellent Neil. Glad you enjoy Icco as well!
Loving your videos Gary, knocked it out of the park again!
Glad you like them!
Hi Gary, great review again 👍🏽
I was making sourdough pizza 15 years ago before it was a thing. I thoroughly researched the art of Neapolitan pizza making. I can tell you that both pizzas looked pretty good to me although the first one looked as close to authentic as you can get. Sadly like a lot of Italian food it gets bastardised here in the Uk. The crust and base of both looked spot on with just the right amount of charring and thin crispy base.
The first one margarita looked great cheese had melted into the sauce. 👍🏽
People are used to cheddar and Red Leicester which have no place on an authentic pizza. Also the amount of sauce looked just right if as you said it was properly made and full of flavour.
Price of the first one seemed a bit steep but as you said pizza is a lot of dough 😂👍🏽
Thank you mate. If you know how to make a Neapolitan pizza then I need to come and have a try, I love it!
I went to Naples on holiday and loved the pizza so much took two cooked ones home in my suitcase.
Hey, Italian lady here, I learned to make pizza 🍕 age 3 with my nonna and yes authentic is best and Italians do it better! Ummmm 😳
I agree. The first pizza is for me, and at 20 inches, is enough for two. So just £13 each portion. The second pizza looked gloopy and heavy. The whole point of a pizza is, that it's light, and very quick to cook.
Both looked great ,8.50 for a pizza in London is amazing
The amazing thing is that you can get one for £3.95!
I like the looks of the second one. Really enjoying your videos. Well done.
Thank you very much!
Yes Gary! Second pizza looked banging for the price! Nice stuff 😎
So good
First one was crazy expensive - would've been almost $60 Australian! Even though it was big it didn't have much topping.
I would pick the second one myself.
Best wishes from Tassie.
Hi Anne. Thanks for watching!
Great review Gary, ICCO for me, Bargain and i love olives, Especially stuffed ones! 👌
Thanks Scotty. Excellent mate!
Another great video, thanks!
More than welcome Duncan!
Great review as always Gary ! Loved the joke ! Where I live must be 10+ pizza shops in the town. Out of them all Dominos is the best . Bit more pricey but other shops do not even come close ! Always consistent pizza 🍕
Oh wow. You might be the only who does like the joke. As you can see, you can understand why I never went into comedy. Thanks for watching!
@@GaryEats I liked the joke too !
Excellent video again Gary. Both pizzas looked good. I’d rather have three 12inch pizzas for the same price as one 20inch. You got me hungry now!! Phoning a pizza as i type. 😀👍🏻
Sounds good mate. What pizza did you go for in the end? Thanks for watching!
Hi Gary, i much preferred the look of the cheaper pizza.You could have got 3 of the cheaper pizza for the cost of the dearer pizza.But not just the price i would have the cheaper pizza.
Fair enough Alan. The first pizza could be shared but I do understand your point. Thanks for watching!
I've been enjoying these vids lately. Nice one Gary!
Glad you like them mate! All the best.
Lovely video chap...I would be very happy with the first restaurant...looked a great large pizza and thin which I like and you could easily share 👌👌🍕🍕and I also likes olives too 👍😋
You and me both David. Olives are an acquired taste but I love em'
Definitely for my taste the first pizza was the one i would like because i like that dough better and it was wood-fired which does give a better taste -although i thought £26 is pushing it a bit so it depends on how much dough 😀i have to spend so at times it might have to be the second one which for the money was ok. Good review and the shots of the pizzas were really professional.
Thank you. Sorry if it went on a bit long, I will pass your kind words on to the cameraman!
Hi Gary, I thought the second pizza looked more appetising but like you said it's down to taste so agree with your conclusion, if you're ever in Brighton or Hove I recommend you try Fatto a mano, great pizzas which cost between the two you reviewed, Cheers
Thanks Mike. I like Brighton so will be down again at some point.
Brilliantly balanced and honest review. Well done mate
Thank you very much Juan
Well done gary 👍I'm not a pizza fan myself but would pay that extra for the first one great review
Thank you Craig. Neither am I weirdly enough!
Both looked good, have to consider the price really. Hard to compare.
Personally on a night out I'd go for the second.
For a treat, the first.
The olive thing must come with age, wouldn't touch them till' I was 35, now I love them, black and green.
Cheers, great review again Gary.
Fair enough mate. Thanks for watching!
That SECOND pizza looked really good LOVE olives
Me too!
Great review gary I would go for the first pizza a lot dearer but looks so much better. Enjoy😋😋😋
Thank you 😋
An excellent review and comparison
Thanks! 👍
I just couldnt justify the price of that first pizza, yes i know its London but for what a pizza actually is i just couldnt. Pizza number two looked about par. I do love these cheap vs expensive videos it can be a real eye opener. Thanks again.
Fair play Simon. Thanks for watching!
@@GaryEats I would have loved to see exactly how much air-dried Wagyu beef you got, on the priciest Homeslice pizza. But I don't blame you for baulking at the £34 price tag! 😱😱😱
The prices in the first place were ridiculous. Born in NY and have enjoyed pizza all over the US, France, Italy and the UK, and now that pizza ovens are so common in many friends home’s too.
It’s flour, water, yeast, salt,olive oil, crushed tomatoes and some cheese. 26 pounds?
Fair enough Carol. The first pizza could have easily been shared by two people!
Don't forget the cost to lease the space, for that location you are looking right around £120 sqft per month. That part of London is not a cheap place to do business, much like the Village in NYC, you look at it and think has to be cheap, then see the rental prices.
Joes Pizza in NYC is $23 for a 21inch Margherita. Not a million miles off the £24 for a 20inch Homeslice Margherita. I think you are thinking about prices in the past, they have gone up everywhere recently.
I did think holy moly when i saw the price but that would feed 2 -3 people and it is London. Most places are expensive to eat at these days.
Great video. Funnily enough, I used to go to icco pizza on Goodge Street whilst at uni in 2005. Amazing pizzas, great atmosphere and price point (even now)! The first pizza also looked good but definitely agree that the margarita should have had more cheese
Glad you've also been and liked it. Very simple stuff and done well!
Olive, pepperoni and fresh chilli is my go to topping however the make or break factor with pizza is the base, both of these looked super thin and really well baked. Perfect!
Lovely stuff Matt. Glad to see another olive lover!
One of the things i love about your videos is how the review is put together. No time wasting so it's not a 30 minute video. Just enough content so shout-out to the Camera man as i assume it's him/her who edits them and does a great job at filming as well.
Take care :)
I appreciate that Sheldon. Yes, we have no interest in making videos longer than they need to be unless it's necessary. He does do all of that - thank you!
Icco's for me, looked far more appetising. Homeslice, prices were outrageous. £24 for a full margherita!, the thinest pizza I've seen with a smear of tomato, invisible cheese, and a basil leaf. Looked like it'd cost them buttons to make, probably about a £20 profit margin on each one. That said, cos i don't mind paying for top scoff, it was their menu that really put me off. Nothing on it I liked the sound of, some weird combos. I mean, curried lamb pizza!!! And your second half looked like a field of grass. I don't want that much green on a pizza. Re the olives, i've always been a fan :)
That's fair enough mate. Curried lamb did interest me, never had that on a pizza before!
@@GaryEatsAye, I prefer my curried lamb on naan :)
@@jfergs.3302Basically the same thing as pizza,I make pizza on naan all the time.
@@GaryEatsThere are places in NY doing curries on pizza,I haven’t had one,but I just know it will be good,really the same thing as the Turkish Lahmacun,which I love.
@@JanetBrown-px2jn They're similar, but quite different, to my mind anyway. Naan's much lighter, fluffier imho :)
Amazing pizza comparison 🍕👌🙌☺️
Good to be said about the both really. Both looked freshly,well made.both was generous with toppings. The choice of the half and harf would be more appealing to me,just for that reason-best of both worlds. The salami,rocket and Parmesan is my second favourite type of pizza. Veggie pizza is my favourite. I would give the olives a miss.tried a few times over the years- just can’t like them and I’ve tried them in one of the best places in the world- Rhodes,Greece. Another most excellent episode sir ….
Thank you Glenda. Glad you enjoyed it!
Love your comment "don't like wasting food". You don't rush through the video unlike other food vloggers. Best wishes for a great you tube following
Thank you so much 😀
I thought the first was very expensive until I saw the size of it and the fact that it pretty much does two people or more! Agree on the olives, Gary, I used to detest them but in the last couple of years I have developed a penchant for them! 😂
Good point, when you divide it by two, it's not such a pricey pizza. I like this way of eating a restaurant pizza - choosing one between two, with two totally different toppings, makes the experience much more interesting.
I liked the look of that one, as personally I prefer a thin pizza. Some pizza arrives at the table way too thick and dough-ey for my taste. That makes the whole thing horribly filling - one slice and you're done!
Ah so many have said the same as you Sheila regarding olives. Glad we all love them now!
Another great review, Gary, pizza is very subjective, a proper thin crust pizza with a nice crust around the edge, baked in a wood fire own,is very hard to beat. Been to Naples many times and always enjoy a few pizza's. Never been to Homeslice, we usually go to Eataly for pizza, but been to Icco, and it's fine for a pizza made in a gas oven and with ingredients which aren't top notch, ergo they can charge less. But that's my subjective point of view, of course. Keep up the fabulous work and speak to you soon, mate. Have a wonderful rest of your week.
Just curious, but would you say your Naples pizzas were the best you've had? There's a whole mythos about Naples pizza, the best you can get, where they originated etc... I've been a few times myself, and though they're very good, I wouldn't say amazing. FTR, my most memorable pizza was had in Pisa :)
Spot on Frank. I'm jealous of your travels to Naples to try their soupy Neapolitan pizzas! My absolutely favourite. Thanks all the best!
@@jfergs.3302 if you go the birthplace restaurant of Neapolitan pizza, it's the best piece of pizza you can put in your mouth. But unfortunately the pizza industry in Naples had become more of a tourist trap, so now, it's difficult to find the best spots. But there is in fact a law in Naples on how the pizza is supposed to be made, if you want to call your pizza Neapolitan pizza in Naples, the pizzeria has to follow that law.
I've had Pizza in Naples and I can't say it's ever been beaten. How they made such few ingredients taste so good is sheer alchemy.
@@barryboom717 yeah it's incredible, a fantastic dough, crushed San Marzano tomatoes, a bit of fresh mozzarella, a sprinkle of Parmigiano Reggiano and some fresh basil. The flavour is off the charts.
Both looked very tasty to me Gary ..
The first one looked good and they trusted you with that pizza slicer outside whilst the second one gave you a buzzer .!
I'll defo check them out now on your recommendation next time I'm around that part of London ..
Awesome mate. Thanks for watching!
Second pizza for me great review once again
Thanks Richard :)
Hi Gary and Mr Cameraman, Great comparison video i really do like these type.
Re my opinion, i wish i had taste vision as Pizza two was a hands down winner for me on price, looks and toppings alone.
When i saw the first pizza, the first thing that came to mind was it was plain looking, and wheres the cheese ? but i trust you fully on the taste side of things.
The second Pizza just looked so much better, and the cheese was very clearly there.
Im Northern so a bit tight, but im prepared to sacrifice a little taste when its ether £26 + service charge, compared to £8-95, as that's nearly £19 extra for the first Pizza, and that's a lot of money.
Chris.
PS-Love Black olives, dislike Green ones's.
Hi Chris. Thanks for your comments and a nice assessment to read as well. I like doing these videos as you almost kill two birds with one stone.
The lack of mozzarella on the first pizza was the disappointing part. Thank you mate, all the best.
PS. Olives are superb.
Thanks Garry, glad you come up with a new video, Just in time to watch and enjoy while having me tea 😋👍👍👍
Thanks Malcolm 👍
Great review again. On first glance the second pizza looked better but you’re right - 2 could share the first one so price wise not a lot of difference, my only negative was I thought the margarita half looked boring - there looked to be some great choices on the menu tho. As for olives - first had them on a holiday to corfu 1980 and loved them ever since. Wouldn’t say no to either pizza have to say 👍
Thank you Carol. Much appreciated!
I really enjoy your videos 👍
Thank you!
The first one looked alright, although it was thin, and I could do without all the lawn trimmings on top. I'm a meat and cheese kind of person, onion, peppers, mushrooms, and black olives are the only other things I like on my pizza. The second one looked better to me, more like what I like in a pizza. I'd have no problem ordering from either establishment. Good review. Cheers.
You're welcome Gary. How was your meal the other day?
@@GaryEats It turned out good, thanks.
Excellent.
Well, that's interesting. I thought the first one was horribly over-priced but a 20" pizza is nearly 3 times the area of a 12" pizza (using pi * r-squared as the formula), which for me at least is very counter-intuitive. So they were both about the same price! Given that, number one wins.
The point is individually £26/28 is a lot for a pizza but it’s a lot bigger so it makes the decision more difficult.
Comparing them by their diameter is misleading so I agree that by the time you calculate area, they are not that far off each other in price. The first one is definitely ideal for sharing. I make my own pizza quite often at home & have found it very easy to use too much topping, so I am not surprised it tasted great.
Sorry to message again, but this is about olives!!!!!! My wife refused to eat them for the first 8 years we were together. That is until I insisted she tried the marinated olives in a Lebanese restaurant, well since then, I am lucky to get a look in!!!!!
No problem Jon. Comment as much as you want. Haha, another olive hater converted. Good job mate!
Ooooh as pizza lover..... and a 20" pizza I'd have loaded those..... great video again!!!
Thank you very kind
I thought he'd go for the second one as it looked really good and much better value, but he said it tasted better and that's the main thing. I like thin and crispy pizza too. As more toppings and less dough.
Thanks for watching Rob!
Nice getting your thoughts on two very different pizza options. It's London so deffo paying a fair bit. I thought the second one looked like it had more toppings on it and a little more appetizing tbh. But probably a close call taste wise.
Thank you my friend. All the best!
Thanks for another terrific review Gary, really enjoy the channel. Personally the first one did look good, but can’t justify that cost for a pizza even if it is good and much bigger. The second one had definitely more cheese which is something I enjoy on a pizza. You could actually get a couple of different cheaper pizzas for the price of the first one, thus more variety in toppings, so for me, probably the 2nd one would be my choice.
Thanks 👍
Well I know what I'm having for my supper lol. Both looked good, I would opt for the 2nd one Gary, it looked a fair quality as well as a spot on price!
Thanks for voting Nick!
New to the channel, love your videos! Where was the first place? I lost count of the number of S Class’s and 7 Series that drove past in the background!
Hello Tommy. Welcome mate and hope you enjoy the videos. It was in James Street in Marylebone. Thanks for watching!
Very nice that too, love it
Thank you kindly!!
Home slice is definitely one of the best spots in the city they always change their menu around! You pay for the quality of what you get it’s definitely no hype job. Great review enjoyed the editing!l Thank you
Thank you!! I really did like Homeslice :)
Another wonderful review Gary. You already found the biggest Naan, now you have found the biggest pizza ! For me I feel price important, so £30 perhaps just a little too much for a pizza, even if scrumptious. But they both looked great !
Thank you Stephanie! I could definietly sleep on that pizza, it was huge!
I wouldn’t buy either.My specialty is home made Haggis pizza.Try it!
Great vlog very good review. I have to say the cheapest one looked good value. Cost versus quality I give both a 9.
Thank you Colin!
Yes nice to see pizza on your menu great review , must admit the dearest pizza I’m with you looked the real thing . The cheaper pizza still looked good ,the ingredients sold it for me as well.👏🤩🙏🏼❤️
Glad you enjoyed it Karen!
Both pies looked equally as good to me. Thanks for the review, Gary!
Thanks for watching!
Great video Gary. ICCO for Me for the taste and value! 🍕
Thanks!!
congrats on 10k subs, that was quick, and well deserved. You must go up to yorkshire and sample the beef dripping fish and chips as a southerner. Whitby is a good place to do it and its chalk and cheese in terms of quality.
Thank you Jim. I'm in Yorkshire next week to try some of the beef dripping fish and chips. Cannot wait mate!
ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO GARY
Thank you Kevin!
Great video Gary. Homeslice possibly the better of the two, if 2 people eating. Icco, great value for money. Both looked really tasty. I wouldn’t have been able to manage without a partner. Many thanks for sharing with us 👍👍👍
Absolutely agree with you Andreas. Thank you!
Icco for me….. Really enjoy the double header reviews. Cheers and thanks again Gary.
You seem like a nice bloke Gary. I have subscribed and look forward to more videos.
Thank you James. More videos on the way!
If your in the mood to do another Pizza review Gary. The best in London is Vincenzos in Bushey. Vincent makes 200 pizza a day and sells out every day so you have to pre order. Perfect mix of Neopolitan and New York style.
Neopolitan and New York styles are my favourite so I will give it a go!
Hi Gary, great episode. Truthfully, the cheaper pizza is my kind of pizza. The lower price is nice too! Cheers!
Thank you! No provlem
Great video all the time, when are you coming to Bedford to do food review.
Thank you Stephen. Drop some recommendations and I'll see what I can do!
This one had me drooling, so much so that I just ordered a pizza for my dinner tonight. I loved the first one with the really thin crust as it looked so fresh. I used to hate olives, but like you, relish them now. Thanks, Gary.
That’s great how was the pizza ? 🙏
@GaryEats I'm sad to say not as good as yours.
The 1st one for me. Looked gorgeous & toppings were right up my street.
Good choice!
Now them pizzas looked yummy 😋 this was a good video 📹 how's your day been
My day has been good Luke, what about you?
@@GaryEats been funny day cold wet windy weather to day but been a fantastic day to day
Hi Gary, please do more videos like this. Expensive vs cheap burger sounds good.
I can do that!
Sorry if this nerdy - but they were actually similar in price!
A 12" diameter circle's area is 730 cm2, A 20" circle's area is 2010 cm2 - 275% or nearly three times more.
(Circle area = π × r² - easy as Pi !)
So all being equal if the cheap pizza had been 20" it would have cost £23.40 - not that far off the first one!
It'll be a lot thinner though
I thought Stephen Hawking was dead! 🤣🤣Only playing, interesting evaluation 👍
Hi Brian. This is exactly why we chose the first one as I thought that everyone would just choose Icco.
A good Italian Pizza is simple tasty and hearty. These type of pizzas are a modern day phenomenon. Also a way of charging an astronomical amount!
Yep.
For me, Pizza is def a lunch or snack, I would never go out for an evening meal and have it. They do them really well here, lovely thin crust with sesame seeds.
OK, the first one you tried, I would love ..... the side with Rocket, Salami, and Parmesan for me please. The second one looked like any old pizza from Tesco to me. Although I love olives.
Thanks, Gary, as always for your wonderful TV titillation. It's always good 👍 ❤ Suzy
Hi Gary, as usual another great review and video thank you. I have noticed you havnt reviewed any Jananese restaurants, Why please
I’ve done twice but each time the video didn’t work, third time lucky 🍀
@@GaryEats please, it would be great to see your choice and reviews
Ist one was expensive but did look amazing! The 2nd one was cheaper but looked a little dry and short of filling around the edges. Also regarding the Olives, I'm similar in terms that I could never stand them up to about 2 yrs ago, now I can eat them with something else but still not a fan on their own. Thanks for another great video
I totally agree. Thanks for watching!
I'm not a pizza person Gaz... I always feel that any meal with bread or dough is not sit down meal but a snack or takeaway...same as tacos...😢 looks OK but a no from me I'm afraid...give me veg and meat all times...I don't mind a couple of chips but I dislike any other potato meal...wonderful vlog as always...preferred second pizza...well done Gaz....onwards and upwards xxx ❤😊
That's fair enough Sharon. Hopefully you will much prefer the next vlog! Onwards and upwards!
Hello Gary. Another good review. Ermm ?? The 1st one to begin I thought no way due to the price. However thinking about it the 1st was massive and considering the price taking into account the halves I think it was fair for the money. Plus it was woodfired. Normally I would go for the 2nd. But guessing the 1st was more of an aquired taste and a better quality pizza. Good review.
Thanks for watching! Cheers.
Looks fab!! Goodge street here i come ;-)
Give it a go Joe!
On looks i think the cheaper version wins it for me. That said, its all about the taste. Both seeemed very good and as you say, one is broadly fast food and the other isnt. Interesting comparison Gary. Your point on olives in interesting. Ive always hated them and recently ate one inadvertantly on a spanish meal and was amazed it tasted good. Great review as always.
That's fair enough! Olives are very much an acquired taste. Thanks for watching Rob!
The second pizza is great value for your ££ where as if its flavour you want I would go for the 1st pizza great review Gary thank you once again
More than welcome Martin. I think you made the right choice!
Hi Gary. I love a nice pizza and loved this. I like you would have preferred the first one.
Incidentally, I can recommend Da Mario in Gloucester Road, where lady Diana used to take William and Harry when they were young. There is a plaque on the wall outside too.
Take care.
I'll check it out! I love a bit of history with my videos.
Gary, please make a video on deep dish pizzas .
The thin ones are getting thinner than paper.
Paper thin with a brush of sauce and cheese for 30£ is too much.
Noted mate. I will do my best!
