The secret inspiration behind Swiss Toni?

Swiss ToniWhat's the most aphrodisiac food? Oysters? Chocolate? Strawberries?
Well, according to one London restaurateur it's none of the above.

Simone Falco, managing director of Italian restaurant group Rossopomodoro, reckons the sexiest food of all is pizza. And as there's nothing more sensual than eating with your hands, he's decided to ban all cutlery from his pizzerias in Covent Garden, Chelsea and Notting Hill.

"Pizza is something you touch and share," Falco says. "You've got to treat a pizza like someone you want to make love to. The pleasure of eating it is just as much about how it feels as how it tastes."

Could it be then, that Falco is the secret inspiration behind the Fast Show's iconic Swiss Toni?
