PizzaExpress was Founded in 1965 by Peter Boizot who was inspired by a trip to Italy; Boizot brought back to London a pizza oven from Naples and a chef from Sicily.  The first restaurant opened in London's Wardour Street and this branch, in Deans Street, became the venue for the popular PizzaExpress Jazz club attracting top jazz players such as Jamie Cullum.
