This pizza is sure to make a very exciting meal, as it uniquely blends Italian and Oriental cuisines! As the name suggests, the Spicy Chinese Pizza is very spicy, and has everything that you will expect to see in a Chinese dish, from noodles and veggies to Schezuan and soya sauce, not to forget garlic. While this innovative pizza uses loads of cheese, without which a pizza is incomplete, it does not require the standard pizza sauce, as it is already chock-full of myriad flavours.
