Ah, Leith; home to many a hard-earned nod of recognition; the much turned-around backdrop to Trainspotting; residents as colourful as its grafitti; more independent bars and restaurants than you can shake a stick at.
These days, its gaining itself a new rep, home to the great pizza war. The further Shore-ward you head, the more great slice-serving stores you come by. There's La Favorita and Origano, both of which have been proudly flexing their mozzarella-smothered muscles for the last few years. Now there's a new competitor entering the ring, and its called East Pizzas. Determined to set themselves apart from their competitors and, with a goal to source all of their products from within a 30-mile radius, they're already winning themselves brownie points with the locals.
The Commercial Street shop offers customers the chance to sit-in or takeaway; whichever you choose, the menu is set to be a winner. The sourdough creations range from veggie options, swathed in oak-smoked tomatoes and aubergine, to meaty wonders, flavoured with pancetta, chorizo and red wine salami. Their choices are select, yet decidedly ample and nicely complimented with some tasty dipping sauces because, let's face it, we all like a wee spot of the crust dunkage now and then.
Want our advice? Ignore the Pet Shop Boys and Go East.
