FAQs....
I thought I'd start a series of FAQs for our new followers, and here's a good one, "What's the mural all about??"
We have the same mural in all 3 shops depicting a little girl spray painting the words People Want Pizza onto a wall... Looks cool right, but what's it mean?
When I first started selling pizza in the lockdown of May 2020 I was making the pizza from my driveway on little gas ovens, in the warm evening sun, and people would come round to collect from me. By November I'd moved onto much better to use electric ovens and moved indoors to escape the winter cold, so every time someone came to pick up their order they rang the doorbell, which happened probably 10-15 times a night..
At the time, my daughter Elisa was 2, and forgot why the doorbell was ringing in the 15 minutes between each chime and would ask us every time "who's that?" To which we'd reply "people, what do you think they want?" And she'd shout "PEOPLE WANT PIZZA!"
And so people want pizza became our Base Face motto, and when I opened the first restaurant in Hammersmith in June 2021 I i wanted to personalise it so I commissioned the lovely Darcy from to draw up our mural!
You can also get our super cool T-shirts with the People Want Pizza sign on the back! We've pretty much sold out of the green version but there's more winging their way to us as I type..
The mural is in all 3 pizzerias but slightly different in each one, can you spot the difference in all 3?
