An exquisite pizza is all about doing the basics exceedingly well.
Would it not break your heart to flick Golden Circle's finest on the masterpiece below? Can you not see the crime?
One does not taint

It’s not just pineapple which ruins pizzas, but cheap ham, pre-cut olives, mozzarella which is bought pre-grated and tastes like rubber. How many times have I struggled through a poorly made pizza? One of the great dishes of the world, brought down by crap ingredients. It’s a travesty what can happen to this magnificent dish.

It's a mess.Looks revolting
Impressive. I usually find the stamina of pineapple hating calfless ones to be a little, shall we say, disappointing.
Where those with a more rational approach to pineapple on pizza - well...
Don't wait up. I may be some time.

Don’t think it would be the longest, but it’s certainly legendary. Not all positive by any means, but genuine and at times, very funny. At others very sad and frustrating.
Everyone who has contributed, is still contributing and has moved on, are legends of this board.

Decent pizza is almost always wood fired.

Here is a link to d’ASPORTO in Yarraville. Decent pizza right next to the Sun Theatre.

No pineapple in sight.
FFS, not even the Australian pizza has pineapple.
Yarraville Menu - Pizza d'ASPORTO

Far greater crime than pineapple going on there.
What kind of moron puts fresh basil on before cooking it. Add it later you half wit.

Talking of Australian pizza - bbq lamb on pizza is a culinary travesty IMO. Pizza d'ASPORTO is to be commended for NOT having lamb on their Australian pizzaHere is a link to d’ASPORTO in Yarraville. Decent pizza right next to the Sun Theatre.

I thought MasterChef and "hero of the dish" was bad enough, but this Yarraville mob hare using it as a verb.
"We hero all the authentic flavours and ingredients from our roots in southern Italy, offering only the highest quality, freshest, seasonal produce, sourced globally."
They're villaining the language.

Lamb should be in pita with lettuce, onion and tzatziki.

Well JB1975 I always thought our jathanas was a part of the hated aristocracy, but this confirms it.
Viva la revolution! All the bourgeois pineapple haters shall find themselves subject to revolutionary justice, thrown in jail and forced to eat nothing but pineapple pizza until a well deserved execution.
Note also the rather thin calves. The aristos wore shoes with high heels in a vain attempt to make their calves appear more shapely and developed, but we know they in fact had spindly unmanly calves like some I could name. None of these effete losers could do their duty and satisfy a real man like me. I would fall asleep of boredom.
For the purposes of this, please forget that I grew up in Brighton and had a nanny.

Maybe - but remember if they bathed once a month you'd be lucky and if they forgot to powder themselves the stink would be worse than a pile of foetid feta sprinkled with rancid manufactured hamRefined people with good taste watching plebs eat Hawaiian pizza:

I agree with you 100%. Lamb has no place in pizza.
The mention of lettuce as an ingredient in Greek food brings out the NMBB in me, so I must clarify that lettuce is not a traditional ingredient in souvas or Greek salad.
Regarding the meat filling, souvlaki in Athens is served in skewers (pork), giro (lamb), or rissoles (usually a blend of pork and lamb mince).
There, I feel better now.
FWIW modernised souva joints now offer chicken/haloumi etc...

This family-friendly Greek restaurant is a great place to come with a group
The food at familial five-year-old tavern Theio Theo is simple but excellent, and the set menu is a feast.
