Domo, Eagle Works, 34-36 Cotton Mill Walk, Little Kelham, Sheffield
S3 8DH (0114 322 1020). Starters £6.75-£14.95, mains £10.95-£37.50, desserts £5.50- £16.50, w ines from £26.50

Among the specials on the menu at Domo, a very jolly Sardinian restaurant in Sheffield, is the Peter, a pizza topped with sliced hotdogs and chips. It has a “totally bladdered on a Friday night” vibe. It sounds like the sort of food item someone might scarf while bellowing “I bloody luv you” at their best mate, with the hefty waft of WKD Blue on their breath. It’s an image profoundly at odds with how we like to picture the Italians behaving around their dinner. Surely, for them it’s all sunshine and refinement and tasselled loafers? Wouldn’t there be outrage in Sardinia if some rackety kitchen started pelting a pizza with chips? Therefore, this must be a site-specific pizza, designed for the good people of Sheffield, and perhaps some of the less good ones, too.
