Review
Overview
Context
- blue moon!
- Halloween - dressed as a can of corn and a hotdog witch
- set the mood with a duet of heart and soul on the piano
Crust
- Very tall crust. There was a proper, flavor blasted bread stick at the end of each slice
- baked in a pan presumably. Very crispy on all surfaces
Sauce
- sauce very tasty and bright
Mozzarella
Ham
Pineapple
- pineapple CHUNKS - love the size. So juicy and cooked to perfection!
Veggie Alternative: Black Olives
- Even the pineapple and olive worked well because the olives weren’t too powerful
Additional Thoughts
- poor topping distribution. For instance: Olive City slice
- lots of ham and cheese and pineapple it all tasted really nice though!
- nothing overly high quality but it all complimented each other so well! Top tier hole in the wall place
- very surprised how good it was! Especially given the quality of some of the nearby places
- a true underdog
- “vegan food effect” may be at play (despite this not being vegan). Had really low expectations and it didn’t look too excellent. May have just been a good pizza but maybe our expectations made it seem especially delicious
- rogue piece of onion in the last bite. Give it a pass unlike TJs because at least it’s a pizza topping not a frickin loose carbohydrate
