Franco Manca

Best pizza in London? Franco Manca in Brixton easily lives up to the hype.

Organic sourdough pizza. Cooked in wood-fired ovens. And not five minutes from Brixton tube. You won't find pineapple or "Meat Feast" here. Franco Manca's great strength is its simplicity - plain, bold flavours, like today's special: finocchiona (fennel salami), aubergine and mozzarella. (Yes, no tomato on that one - get over it.)

But my favourite is No. 4 on their autumn menu: tomato, garlic, oregano, capers, olives, anchovy and mozzarella. Sounds complicated. They make it simple as.
