Melbourne man proposes to girlfriend through pizza

It might seem cheesy to some, but one Melbourne man had great success on Thursday using an Italian classic to propose to his now-fiancee.

Michael Pelosi took his girlfriend, Cynthia Costanzo to 400 Gradi in Brunswick, where the pair had shared their first date and celebrated their subsequent anniversaries. 

He booked the pair into a pizza masterclass, where they learned the intricacies of the Italian staple. After making their own pizzas, helpful chefs swapped the couple’s creations for something more romantic.

According to the restaurant, who shared the good news on social media, one chef took a picture with the couple as another brought out pizzas to pop the question with. 

Using cheese to expertly create letters on the two pizzas, the first read ‘Will You,’ and the second, ‘Marry Me’.

‘Of course, she said yes and we might even have shed a tear or two,’ a post on the restaurant’s Instagram recounted.

Michael and Cynthia were pictured cuddled in front of the pizza oven, as Michael held out the pizzas for the camera.
