WHEN it comes to pizza, there’s nothing better than a simple Margherita – just mozzarella cheese, tomatoes, olive oil and basil – delicious.

Or is a meat feast your go to pizza?

Do you prefer a veggie supreme or have you tried swapping out the tomato sauce for barbecue sauce?

Does pineapple really belong on a pizza?

It might have started out as an Italian treat, but pizzas have made their mark and are enjoyed in almost every country around the world.

The flat dough base topped with tomatoes and cheese is a firm favourite with all nationalities and generations as it’s a quick and easy meal that satisfies your hunger pangs.

We have started our next Best of search to find St Helens’ perfect pizza and we want to know where in the town serves the perfect slice, whether it’s brought to your table or a quick takeaway option eaten on the go.

In our Best of 2023 campaign, we’ve given out eight awards in St Helens for hair and nails, pies and roast dinner, cocktails and breakfast as well as fitness and fish and chips.

The shortlist for the town’s Best for Tattoos was revealed yesterday, Thursday.

This week, it’s pizza and we know it will be no easy feat to choose a winner which is why we’ll be handing over the final decision to those who know best – our readers.

HOW IT WORKS:

Each Friday morning we will reveal new categories via our social media pages and ask you who is the best. Nominations will then close each Monday morning at 12pm.

Every Thursday we will publish a shortlist of finalists with voting officially opening.

You will be able to vote in one of three ways:

- By commenting under the relevant post on our St Helens Star Facebook or Twitter pages = 1 vote

- By entering via the online article on our St Helens Star website = 2 votes

- By entering via our St Helens Star newspaper = 5 votes

The following Wednesday evening we will announce the winner of that category on social media.

Usual Newsquest competition rules apply.

Don’t forget to keep an eye on our website and our social media each Friday morning, when we will launch a new Best of 2023 search and then every Thursday to vote for your favourite from our shortlist.
