The Franco Manca pizzeria has opened its third site at the £1.45 billion Westfield Shopping Centre.

The new outlet, which follows in the footsteps of the Brixton-based original and its Chiswick sites, is located in the Café Court area of the development, a spacious area housed in a three-tiered gallery.

At the heart of Franco Manca is a wood-burning 'Tuff brick oven that allows pizzas to be cooked at 500C.

A new addition to the menu is the three chilies pizza with Franco & Lloyd organic Somerset Gran Pecorino. The latter ingredient is a joint collaboration between Franco Manca's owner, Giuseppe Mascoli, and Lloyd Green.

Other new additions include spicy lamb meat balls made with pure English leg mince sourced by David Tomlin from the Rare Bread Survival Trust.

To complement these dishes are the organic wines which have been imported from Ottavio Rube, founder of Valli Unite cooperative in Piedmont, while the house lemonade is produced from organic lemons.

Pizza prices range from just £4.50 to £6.85 and a bottle of organic wine costing £10.95.
