NEWS : Celebrate Burns with a haggis pizza

When Rabbie Burns wrote about the ‘great chieftain o’ the puddin’-race’, chances are he never envisaged haggis on Pizza!

But this January in celebration of Scotland’s favourite traditional dish, La Favorita restaurant on Leith Walk in Edinburgh have launched a pizza topped with the traditional Scottish treat in time for Burns Night on January 25th.

The 12- inch delicacy is topped with a large helping of haggis and includes red onions, sliced potatoes, super creamy mozzarella and a drizzle of scotch to complete the meal.

The Burns Night celebratory pizza will be available from La Favorita restaurant on Leith Walk and across La Favorita Delivered venues for in-store, delivery or collection at the price of £13.95 and available from January 13th until February 2nd 2020 (inclusive). 


The award - winning pizzeria and Italian restaurant from Vittoria Group revealed a new look in November last year showcasing a stylish, modern design after an extensive makeover. A brand new kitchen and marble bar were added and the venue was re-designed to give it a lighter and more welcoming feel to diners. La Favorita's menu removed the dishes you can find in most Italian restaurants and replaced them with pasta dishes that balance authentic flavours with modern and distinctive ingredients. Classic, rustic Italian dishes with a creative flair were also added to appeal to the trends of a growing vegetarian, vegan and health conscious consumer.

La Favoria's pizzas are topped with mouth-watering ingredients and cooked in revolving 300C log-fired Italian ovens to give that special crispness and unmistakable smoky flavour. While the restaurant brands authentic thin crust Italian pizzas are the highlight and everyone’s favourite, La Favorita also offers so much more – delicious gourmet Italian pastas are made to order, with a great choice of antipasti starters, fresh salads and indulgent desserts.
