TOOWOOMBA pizza fans have plenty to cheer about with the Kearneys Spring Pizza Hut restaurant back in business.
Re-opening the popular eatery are new franchisees Prabu and Kavintha Kannan who take control of the store after its closure in February.
It will be the first time working in hospitality for Mr and Mrs Kannan, after 15 years working in IT.
"My wife and I had worked most of our lives in IT and were desperate for a change," Mr Kannan said.

• Lockyer Valley player still in coma after weekend AFL tackle
• Fines start flowing for three-hour suburban street parking
• Failure to stop costs dearly - but owner says it wasn't her
"I really liked the potential the Toowoomba store had and decided it would be the perfect place to start my career running a restaurant.
"It is going to be a really big challenge for us. However we are determined to make it work."
The restaurant has employed 40 staff - 25 permanent and 15 casual.
Since re-opening for business three weeks ago, Mr Kannan said business has been incredible.
"We have had so many people visit us since we opened our doors a few weeks ago," he said.
"We have renovated the dining area and upgraded all the kitchen equipment so it's like a whole new store."
