A GREAT PIZZA TO TRY
Eat a pizza, feed a hungry child. That’s the idea behind the Mimmos and 94.7’s Rude Awakening pizza campaign. In 2010 the goal is to break all previous records by feeding an estimated 3,000 underprivileged children with the aid of Food4Africa - a charity organisation that aims to provide balanced meals to hungry children across Africa. Jeremy Mansfield finally settled on a Moroccan theme which will see Moroccan chicken, chickpeas with lemon preserve, roasted bell peppers, pickled aubergine, rosa tomatoes and mint added to the pizza of all pizzas. Try it NOW - it’s available at all Mimmos restaurants across the country through March.
