New filling for shop site

A PIZZERIA owner has applied to take over a defunct sandwich shop on South Bridge.

Mario Naama, owner of the nearby Palmyra Pizza on Nicolson Street, has applied to transform the former Quiznos Sub into a small restaurant and takeaway.

The application comes just six weeks after homeless charity Streetwork UK was granted permission to turn the unit next door into a new cafe which will be staffed by the homeless.

The cafe is to be known as Captain Taylor's Kitchen.
