New pizza shop named after legend

PIZZAS are coming out of the oven at a commercial rate finally for Curly’s owner, Aaron Lang, after his new business was able to officially open for the first time on Thursday afternoon. The shop name comes from one of Hamilton’s well-known characters, Mr Lang’s grandfather, Keith ‘Curly’ Lang (inset). Photos: MARK RABICH.

AFTER well over 18 months chipping away at the work that needed to be done to open his new pizza shop on Coleraine Road, owner, Aaron Lang, was thrilled to get the green light to open from the health inspector on Wednesday and start baking the next day, just in time for the AFL Grand Final weekend.

The naming of the shop – ‘Curly’s’ – was an important detail for Mr Lang, as his roots in the area go way back.
