Pa-Pi Pasta and Pinsa is a new Italian restaurant is opening in Huddersfield and it's set to be one of the best-value places to eat.
The latest installment to Hudderfield town's foodie scene is set to open within the next month, and they're bringing incredible Italian flavours without the price tag.
Shipping in pasta straight from the motherland and opting to serve up Pinsa-style pizza, Pa-Pi Pasta and Pinsa is an original concept that will focus on quality and price.
With an appetising menu, the pasta menu is in a pick 'n' mix style, rather like an indie version of Subway or Barburrito, except a fresh, homemade version. First you choose one of nine pasta shapes, then one of the eight sauces.
Offering a whopping 72 different combinations of pasta, the restaurants is focusing on providing limitless options at an unbeatable price: just £7.99.
There's all the classics you need to find the perfect combo with flavours like ragu, carbonara, four cheese, porcini mushroom white sauce, spicy, vegetable and a traditional tomato and basil offering available.
Pinsa which translates to 'push the dough by hand', is a type of rectangular pizza that's made from three different flours and easy to digest. The Pinsa menu is filled with traditional Italian treats and just still comes in under £8.
Expect dough topped with fior de latte mozzarella, extra virgin olive oil, tuna, mixed peppers, chili and oregano, named the Murazzano.
Alternatively, guests will be able to opt for the Castello, a barbecue sauce base with chicken, mixed peppers and fior de latte mozzarella, amongst other classic combinations that resemble a modern four seasons, margarita or seafood variety.
If that's not enough, there will be plenty of appetisers to compliment the carb-filled menu with, even more carbs. Apart from the staple French Fries (priced at just £1.99), there's still a full range of authentic Italian dishes like focaccias with rosemary and balsamic vinegar, arancini ragu with parmsean and deep fried mozzarella.
Pa-Pi Pasta and Pinsa hopes to attract everyone from students to families with their competitive prices. The restaurant will be open from 11.30am until 10pm each day and delivery will be available to those in the surrounding area- just not quite as far as Leeds unfortunately.

Located just thirty minutes from Leeds city centre, you can bet that this is going to be a menu worth travelling for.
The restaurant is now in Huddersfield town centre near the Slug and Lettuce on King Street.

Cult favourite burger chain Burgerism is officially coming to Leeds this summer
An award-winning burger chain is coming to one of Leeds' suburbs.
If you don't know Burgerism, then get to know.
The Manchester-based burger chain is known by many for its incredible smash patties and quick, reliable service.
Their concept is simple: good burgers made with quality ingredients and cooked fresh to order. Delicious.
And it's not just burgers, they've also got some great wings and fries available too with a range of homemade sauces on offer for dunking, drizzling and devouring. We're a particular fan of the buffalo wings with their garlic ranch dip.
The chain used to have a dark kitchen on the outskirts of the city where people could order via Deliveroo, however this closed down and since then there's been a Burgerism-shaped hole left in our foodie scene.

Burgerism recently applied to move into a vacant shop unit in Meanwood at 605 Meanwood Road, seeking change-of-use planning permission for the former Papa Johns site which was previously only allowed to serve...well, pizzas.
And the plans have now been approved, which means Burgerism will officially be coming to Leeds. Hurray!
Burgerism's new takeaway will be walking distance from the The Meanwood Tavern, perfect for those looking for some post-pint burgers.
It will be strictly takeaway with no dine-in option available.
The brand-new Burgerism will employ 15 people from the local area with food being served between 11am and 11pm.
We'll keep you up to date as and when we find out more, but for now we're aware that Burgerism Leeds is set to open this summer.
Ireland’s famous fast food phenomenon, the spice bag, has landed in Leeds Kirkgate Market
Clementine Hall
You can now grab the ultimate hangover cure at our very own Kirkgate Market.
And it comes from none other than The Fisherman's Wife - a Leeds institution that has been serving up fantastic fish and chips for over 60 years.
But now, they're turning their attention to spice bags.
If you have no idea what we're talking about then allow us to fill you in. And we'd recommend pouring yourself an ice cold glass of water, because it's about to get real salty up in here.
The spice bag is an Irish delicacy that is often devoured after a few Guinness on the streets of Dublin, for example.

It consists of shredded and battered chicken, chips, onions and peppers - all deep fried, loaded into a bag and tossed in lashings of salt and pepper seasoning.
Oh, and of course dipped or lathered in a sauce of your choosing. The classic being curry sauce, obviously.
It's been available in Leeds once before at a pop-up in Trinity Kitchen, but now The Fisherman's Wife is here to make them a permanent option for anyone with that salty craving.
You've got a couple of flavours to choose from too, including peri-peri, plain, salt & chilli and of course the classic salt & pepper.

You can then add a drizzle of sriracha, curry sauce (obviously) or sticky honey if you're looking for that sweet and salty balance.
The best part? They're selling these for just £6.50.
So next time you've had a few too many the night before, get yourself to The Fisherman's Wife inside Leeds Kirkgate Market's food hall and get yourself a spice bag. You'll be cured in no time.
