Christies Pasta e Pizza., Fukuoka-Shi

This pizzeria offers authentic Italian pizzas from their wood-fired stove. Those who have had a pizza cooked in such a fashion will appreciate the difference. To complement the pizza, Christies has a fair selection of Italian wines and can arrange French wines or champagne should you require. The food selection is quite international ranging from traditional Italian antipastos (up to JPY1,200) to a unique squid haggis in octopus "ink." The seating is functional and in line with the requirements of a pizza restaurant. The clientele is of no particular age group, but the lack of salarymen means that the atmosphere is more civil than will be found at other pizzerias. Expect to pay JPY4,000-JPY5,000 for a meal and drinks for two.
