Spoilt for choice for Roman style pizza at Pixxa

Spotted Pixxa when I was in Farringdon so checked it out.
They specialize in Roman style pizza which are rectangular slices of pizza found in Rome.
There were so many choices hence I decided to revisit another day for it.
Went back on a Monday lunch when it was nice and quiet and got the 3 slice deal for £10.95.
After choosing my slices, I thought they just give it to you but it goes in the oven once more so they are piping hot.
I got settled and started to take photos as usual when I heard these crunching noises from the guy opposite.
It was then I realized how thin and crispy the pizza base was which was my liking because I am extreme when it comes to the pizza base; it has to be thin and crispy or thick and bready, there is not in between!
The three flavours I got were the artichoke and nduja, potato and rosemary, sausage and scamorza.
I started with the potato and rosemary first because it had the lightest taste, the first bite was impressive because of the pizza base which was thin and airy like pan de cristal/glass bread.
Then there was the fluffy yet crispy potato which was crushed/crumbled to cover the pizza evenly.
The other two pizzas were both equally good but the artichoke and nduja was probably my favourite because of the pairing and the spicy kick from the nduja.
The sausage and Scamorza with onions was another lovely combo but somehow, I am loyal to the English pork sausage so nothing quite beats it.
Overall, I was impressed as the pizzas were not too oily or heavy to give you that bloated feeling.
They are also doing a pizza challenge where you eat 6 slices but I didn't realize the slices were that big so it doesn't quite seem possible!
Will definitely return when I am feeling peckish because you can just get them by the slice.
The guy there was really friendly and there is an upstairs as well which I didn't know on the first visit.
The ambiance upstairs was so relaxing that you could stay there all day.
