If wood-fired pizza, boozy drinks, and glam decor sound like your ideal night out, then this new pizza place in Toronto might be worth a trip.

Piccolo Piano Pizzeria officially opened in the old Café Cancan building on September 30. Brought to life by the same people behind Piano Piano, the restaurant has totally transformed the pastel bistro into a glam dining spot, and here's what you can expect when visiting.

The space is full of fancy, vintage vibes. The light pink walls of Café Cancan have been painted a vibrant red and adorned with masks right from Venice.

You can sit down in an animal-print chair and order a variety of small plates and Neapolitan pizzas. Options include flavours like Hawaiian and pepperoni, but menu items change regularly.
