29-01-2013 8:10pm#1Hi There everyone.
I own a little coffee shop and an oportunity for extra space has arisen, I am in Limerick. I'm thinking of going with one of the following options:
1 Not taking the space and doing a revamp, which it urgently needs anyway.
or taking the space and doing one of these options.
2. Doing a pizza/pasta place that would be open day and night, I'm only open in the day now.
3. Doing a tappas wine bar at night and keeping the coffee deli element during the day.
I am open to suggestions I am right in the City Centre and a lot of Coffee shops have opened in recent times so I'm looking to do something a bit different, but there needs to be a market in Limerick for it too.`
Is Pizza making a skill I can learn and teach others or would I need to employ a chef? I'd be willing to travel to Italy for a course and do it properly. But I would not plan to work there myself every hour so it would have to an easy system for someone to learn.
Any other advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance (hopefully) for the advice.

One of my passions in life is making pizza.
It's ALL about the base and I've spent years trying different recipes. The best one I've found so far is from Jamie Oliver

Three essentials for a good pizza base -
1. Tipo 'type O' flour
2. Semolina
3. Pizza stone
For a relatively cheap pizza stone go to a headstone maker and get a couple of large limestone slabs.
A couple of pizza peels would also be useful and they look great in action.

The thinner the base the crispier. I use a rolling pin, I'm sure there are pizza throwing lessons on YouTube if you want to put on a show!
Toppings - if you have a thin base then you want as little topping/liquid as possible. Less is more. As for ingredients, copy whatever the Dominos/Tesco's are selling. They know what people want.
Good luck to you, a good homemade pizza tastes fantastic and is a a cheap as chips to make. 0 -
