Food: Pizza Express, Birmingham

Last week, I was invited along to try out the new Autumn Menu at Pizza Express at The Brindley Place branch. This will come as a shock to most people but I’m not actually a fan of Pizza but recently I’ve been all about going to new restaurants and eating different things – Plus I can’t resist Pizza Express Dough Balls. If you’ve never been to Birmingham, Brindley Place is such a lovely area by the canal but unfortunately, it was like monsoon season whilst we were there. When my friend and I arrived at Pizza Express, we were quickly seated and the waiter took our drinks order. I opted for Rosé wine.

After mulling over the new Autumn menu, I obviously went for Dough Balls for my starter. They were just amazing. A new addition to the menu is the Dough Balls Formaggi which are slightly different from the original as they are baked in cheese. My friend chose these and I tried one or two and they taste really great – Quite like Cheese Twists.

For the main course I chose the Margherita pizza – I know a bit boring but it’s a classic.

My friend chose the Sloppy Giuseppe which was Spicy Beef, Red Onions and Peppers.

Of course, when it comes to desserts I am all over that. I picked the Chocolate fudge cake and oh my it was divine. It came with a scoop of ice cream and the slice was pretty big so I was very much full up after all of this.

My friend tried out the Leggera Chocolate Cheesecake, He tried to get Vanilla Cheesecake but unfortunately, it wasn’t available. The Chocolate Cheesecake was very nice though, I tried it myself and It was spot on for me. My friend thoroughly enjoyed it too.

I’d like to thank Pizza Express for having us, It was a really nice evening there. The food was delicious and I thoroughly enjoyed trying something sort of new (ha). I was also surprised as I hadn’t been to Pizza Express in years, It’s a lot more upmarket than I thought and a great standard for the price. I definitely would go again and maybe even get a takeaway as they deliver too!
