Restaurant review - Zizzi

I've seen a lot of restaurant reviews on other food blogs and since I have now started to write reviews of afternoon teas I've had (and I will soon run out of posts on that subject!) I have decided to add some restaurant reviews as well. I plan to keep them brief as I am hardly a gastronomic expert and if people really aren't interested in these posts I will stop. So let's see how it goes.....

To start off it's a relatively pedestrian choice but I did have a slightly more unusual meal than usual there.

Restaurant name: Zizzi
Location: One New Change, St. Paul's, London
Description:  Italian chain restaurant
Reason for visit: A quick and cheap-ish lunch to welcome a new colleague to our team at work
I ate: Calzon'Pizza Salsiccia. I love calzone (folded pizza) so couldn't resist trying this new take on it - part pizza, part calzone. As you can see from the photo above, most of the pizza is flat and there is a raised pocket on one side, so you get the best of both worlds. In fact you get two separate toppings - the main pizza is sausage and mascarpone and inside the pocket is ham, pesto and rocket. It was very filling and absolutely delicious.
My companion(s) ate: Risotto and salad (yes I know, I felt like a pig after our food arrived).
The food was: Really tasty; it was a nice surprise to find something on the menu that I hadn't had before and the flavours were delicious.
The atmosphere/service was: Fine; we hadn't booked and the restaurant was quite busy but they found us a table
Price range/value for money: Very good - my pizza was about £11. There was a time when I never went to a Zizzi, Pizza Express or similar without a discount voucher, but they seem to have moved away from that a little. We looked it up online and found a 25% off voucher, but it was only valid in the evening and we were there at lunchtime. Probably the first time in ages I've paid full price for a pizza!
Would I recommend it? Definitely - I've always thought Zizzi had a good selection of food - not just pizza and pasta - and I really enjoyed my meal.

OK I realise that wasn't particularly earth-shattering but there will be some more interesting restaurant reviews coming soon!
