Char siu pizza

Founded in London in 1965, Pizza Express was recently bought by a Chinese corportion, which has now given its franchises on the mainland a new name - an Italian one: Pizza Marzano. The chain was originally introduced in Shanghai as Pizza Marzano, and now all Chinese outlets bear that name with a logo that mimics that of Pizza Express, with both English and Chinese versions. The chain is marking the occasion with a new menu, which features an unexpectedly yummy char siu pizza made with honey-roasted pork, spring onions, bechamel sauce, black sesame and spring onion pesto on a crisp thin crust for 78 yuan ($11.30). If such Sino-Italian fusion really intrigues you, go half-and-half with the Peking duck topping on one side and pay 108 yuan.
