Pizza has emerged as one of the most popular dishes in the UK today. But the history of pizza is a long one. It is first believed to have appeared in Naples before the turn of the first millenium, where it was a dish which was served as a cheap food to locals, made from dough which had been used to test the temperature of the oven by bakers.

Pizza came to the English-speaking world much later on, when Italian immigrants entered America. Cities with high Italian populations such as New York saw cafes begin to sell pizza to the local Italian-American population.

Pizza is usually a dough base with tomato sauce and mozarella cheese with a selection of toppings. In 1990, a South African supermarket chain took this idea to the next level, when they built the world's largest pizza.

Papa Luigi Dial-a-Pizza emerged in 1983 and was the UK's First Pizza Delivery service. The company has gone from strength to strength with stores across the region in Peterborough, Northampton, Milton Keynes and Huntingdon.
