PROFILE
LIVING LIFE TO THE LUXE One of the group gluten free or vegan? PizzaLuxe (www.pizzaluxe.com) restaurants accommodate all, with vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options on the menu, and now coffee, cake and cocktails available at its latest Manchester opening.
CATERING FOR ALL Offering over 16 different varieties of gourmet, handmade thin crust pizzas for their diners to try, the PizzaLuxe menu caters to all with plenty of options for every diner, so there’s no need to feel left out if gluten-intolerant or dairy free, with all pizzas freshly made to order, ensuring that all dietary requirements can be catered to. On the menu there are six vegetarian options to choose from including the Verdura, with cherry tomato, asparagus, artichoke heart, red onion and black olive and the Quattro Formaggi, featuring mozzarella, Gorgonzola, feta, halloumi and thyme. There is also a vegan option available if requested, including vegan cheese and vegan tomato pizza sauce. For those who are gluten intolerant, PizzaLuxe understands how it can be

difficult, especially when it comes to finding a great pizza. Thus, they offer a gluten free pizza base made from rice flour and potato flakes, and which is available for any pizza on the menu (prices for pizza start at £5.50, with vegan and gluten free base options available for an extra £2). NEW FLAGSHIP RESTAURANT PizzaLuxe has also now opened its brand new, flagship restaurant in Manchester Arndale’s Halle Place, the new £11m food quarter. After receiving a £1.5m investment, the fast expanding pizza operator has extended its offering and has launched its new flagship branch - and the shopping centre’s first pizza and cocktail bar - as part of its plan to create a new home in the North.
PizzaLuxe, which has been an anchor tenant of award-winning Leeds Trinity Kitchen since it opened, will now be serving up its gourmet, handmade thincrust pizza, aperitivo and fresh salads there alongside its made to order cocktail menu, and says that it plans to lead the way in creating a buzzing day to night dining experience in the newly redeveloped Halle Place. UNCONVENTIONAL The brand says that it doesn’t stick to the rules of conventional Neopolitan pizza, but instead creates unique Roman-style recipes using a combination of both British and European produce, carefully sourcing each ingredient to create its homemade luxury pizzas.
