So, a pizza place then?</p> <p>Seem to have a lot of outlets in the West of Scotland, including doubtless "iconic" sites in Airdrie, East Kilbride and Hamilton. Oh and four restaurants in Glasgow, including a flagship diner in the Merchant City. </p> <p>Here's the menu, which features such authentic Italian delicacies as burgers; "Crispy Bad Ass Louisiana Hot Wings"; Nachos; Gambas Pil Pil; "Copacabana Chicken"; BBQ Pork Ribs...</p> <p><a href="http://www.dimaggios.co.uk/menu" rel="nofollow">http://www.dimaggios.co.uk/menu</a></p> <p>It's a Glaswegian Frankie and Benny's basically. Kids, teens, famished shopaholics and pre-stag crawl diners will doubtless enjoy an unpretentious slice of pizza there.</p> <p>They do takeaway too, apparently. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17129#post-235903 Tue, 08 Nov 2016 13:32:14 +0000 kaputnik 235903@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Another press release brimming with superlatives and hyperbole dutifully churned out by the chipwrapper.</p> <p>The building is hardly "iconic" and is one of the less notable structures on St. Andrew Square.</p> <p><em>“It’s opening up that side of town because until now there’s only really been KFC and McDonald’s.</em> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17129#post-235902 Tue, 08 Nov 2016 13:26:32 +0000 chdot 235902@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/our-region/edinburgh/city-centre/historic-banking-hq-set-for-2m-restaurant-makeover-1-4280937" rel="nofollow">http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/our-region/edinburgh/city-centre/historic-banking-hq-set-for-2m-restaurant-makeover-1-4280937</a> </p>
