WANT a pizza that’s guaranteed to be first on the list?
You can’t go wrong with an aardvark pizza.
A Kilmarnock restaurant called Indian Accent is selling the unusual spicy snack which is topped with green chillies, chicken and lamb mince as well as the African animal that gives it its name.
The restaurant has been hugely busy since they introduced the quirky dish, which comes in 10, 12 and 16 inch versions priced at £6.50, £7.95 and £11.50 respectively
While the restaurant prides itself on offering ‘authentic Indian cuisine’ it sells pizzas calzones and burgers alongside the more standard curry house fare such as Chicken Tikka Masala and Lamb Bhuna.

Head chef Anser Anton, 43, told the Daily Record: "I wanted to bring unique flavours to the people of Kilmarnock and bring out the different flavours.’'
Social media reaction to the offbeat offering has been mixed.

While one local happily commented: "Aardvark is a staple of the Kilmarnock diet.” another said: "It's immoral...why eat aardvark?”
Andrea Graham added: ''Disgusting''.
Aardvarks are medium-sized nocturnal animals common to the southern half of Africa. They use their long tubular snout to sniff out ants and termites which they dug out with their long, sharp claws.
While at first glance they look quite similar to the South American anteater they are not closely related. Aardvarks are the sole surviving members of an animal family that largely became extinct at the end of the Pliocene era.
