Pizzeria grabs slice of glory
La Favorita, on Leith Walk, became the first pizzeria to be awarded the top industry accolade - which is usually reserved for high-end eateries - in 2009 and has secured the honour for a second year running.
The awards recognise the success of high-achieving establishments and individuals and rosettes are given only to those who demonstrate mastery and excellence in food quality and service.

Owner Tony Crolla said: "To be the first pizzeria to receive the award last year was amazing, but the fact that we have managed to keep it for a second year is simply fantastic."
