For my birthday this year I went to Little Caesar's Pizzeria in Leederville with a couple of friends before meeting more friends at a club.
My friends Emily and Brad introduced me to Little Caesar's sometime in September last year. They have this super funky menu with a variety of sweet and savoury pizza's. Some of the pizza's are named after local bands and radio shows and all are made with fresh ingredients.
On the Saturday night that we went there it was absolutely packed. The main negative with Little Caesar's in Leederville is that you can't book a table. We got lucky however when Brad spotted a couple who were finishing up and leaving.
We ordered 3 savoury pizza's and a sweet pizza. The Nathan and Nat, Greek Lamb and the Cinnamon Girl were our savoury pizza's. The Nathan and Nat pizza is named after a breakfast radio show on a local station called Nova 93.7. It is delicious, it has chicken, prosciutto, roasted red capsicum, pine nuts, mozzarella, roasted umpkin, cream sauce and lemon as the toppings. I am not normally a red capsicum fan, but I didn't even notice that it was there until I just reread the menu to put the toppings list on here!

Cinnamon Girl was also nice. It was a combination of savoury and sweet. The pizza toppings were cinnamon, chicken, sultanas, sweet potato, mozzarella, cream sauce and balsamic glaze. The cinnamon added an interesting flavour to the pizza and the balsamic glaze was lovely.
The Greek Lamb pizza was described by Lisa as "Kebab on a pizza" when she read the description. She was correct, however it didn't have that weird late night kebab after taste. The toppings were corrigin free range lamb, semi-caramelised onion, fetta, mozzarella, kalamata olives, rosemary and tzatziki. From the toppings list it looks more like a classy kebab on a pizza, given there is no garlic sauce or raw onion. It was quite delicious. I also think that the lemon wedge from the Nathan and Nat pizza ended up on the Greek Lamb pizza.

For our dessert pizza we had the Eskimo Joe. Eskimo Joe is a band that is local to Perth which is probably one of the reasons why there was a pizza named after them at this restaurant. This pizza was also delicious. The pizza topping include malt choc chip cookie mix, icing sugar and raspberry sauce with a huge dollop of vanilla ice cream on top. You definately need a knife and fork for this pizza as it would get very messy otherwise! Again, this pizza was absolutely delicious.

I would highly recommend the Little Caesar's Pizzeria. There are three across Perth (Leederville, Hillary's and Mundaring). On their menu they have several prize winning pizza's that are marked with a little star (it took us a little while to figure this out at the restaurant). But, I would reccomend either getting there really early or really late if you go to Leederville as on weekends especially it fills up fast and there are not a lot of tables. I would definately go to this restaurant again as I want to try more pizza's off their menu!
