Pay R20 for any large pizza (excluding seafood or fillet) valued at R53 (save 62%)

Travelling in Italy, you’ll probably experience many wild and wonderful things. Strolling through the Sistine Chapel, taking morning jogs through Parco delle Cascine, photographing yourself ‘holding up’ the Leaning Tower of Pisa and most likely seeing the strange fad of dogs wearing winter coats first-hand. You won’t find any of these things in sunny South Africa (except maybe the dogs in coats) but you will find a taste of genuine Italian Cuisine with any large pizza from Salute (excluding seafood or fillet) for only R20.

It’s a widely known fact that French cuisine is all about the chef, Italian cuisine is all about the food and South African cuisine is all about the atmosphere. Just think Saturday afternoon braai’s on the patio while the boys shout at the rugby match on TV, thinking they can referee from the couch. Salute combines the best of all three. With their extensive menu, even if you’re just sticking to pizza you’ll be spoiled for choice with some interesting choices of topping and the question that’s stumped even the smartest of men: Thick or thin crust?

The food could probably leave you a little dazed by deliciousness and the vibe is upmarket enough to take your grandmother to for her birthday, but relaxed enough to celebrate special occasions by having their waiters strip down to their skivvies whenever a table orders a round of shots. Word on the street is that it’s the perfect place to make like Rapunzel and let your hair down for the evening.

Pizza Fact: In the 1989 ‘World Pizza Awards’ the pizza that won the title of ‘World’s Weirdest Pizza’ was called the Monday 172. Exclusively available in Frostbite Falls, Minnesota, this eccentric pizza is topped with Feta, glazed-moose and cherry tomatoes and dehydrated pears.
