tanatastic 2,061 Posted April 27, 2017 Pizza Hut is the best of the bad pizza chains. Â I have the holy grail a bit up the road though.

wiffleball 4,631 Posted April 27, 2017 I was gonna do a thread on this a while ago - I mean, not your damn safety meeting or whatnot, but: Â Just thinking back the last couple of years, all these chains (esp Dom and PH) have tried just about everything; They changed names, they remodeled their stores, new outfits, - Fock - one of them even came up with a GD SHOE that orders 'pizza'. - And remember when PH came up with all kinds of 'hipster-friendly' sauces and ingredients like Sriacha and stuff? Â And still, they suck. And still, you know many people continue to order from them. But I have to think that with Apps like Grub Hub and major chains like Panera, etc. seeking to add delivery as a competitive advantage, their market share (built largely upon convenience) has to be taking hits. Â I mean, it's PIZZA for fock's sake. They're not preparing Blowfish. As foods go, Pizza's not that hard - why do these guys keep focking it up with virtually unlimited funding? Â Maybe it's wishful thinking, but between the factors I've listed above, new 'craft' chains coming to the market - and the fact that some frozen pizzas actually seem to be getting better every year - I'd have to think that these guys may be a non-factor in 5 years or so. Â Truth is, for the money differential vs. taste/texture/quality, I'd rather pay a little extra for a good frozen at the store (and stock up so it's always an option / always convenient) than ever spend money on that other garbage. even in a mass production, fast food environment.

vuduchile 1,940 Posted April 27, 2017 I made my son a home run inn pizza for dinner tonight, and it's way better than I remember Dominos being. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wiffleball 4,631 Posted April 27, 2017 Pappa John's was better than the others when they first came out (IMHO). Remember when they included the banana pepper (or 3) on the side? But damn, their quality and consistency absolutely sucks. Honestly, that chain seems like it could benefit from a serious Management makeover without having to change too much in the way of ingredients or equipment. Â Â I forget the name of the chain in Columbus (OH), but they had a Hawain Pizza that someone kept ordering for work. I can say that I can eat that stuff if there aren't any other good options, but these guys? They actually sprinkled slivered almonds on the pizza. Yuck - and I like almonds.

I was in college from 87-91. when we wanted cheap i believe the deal from PH was either 2 med or lg specialty pizzas for $10. when we wanted better, we went to luigis or nypd.

Â best pizzas i have had were in venice, florence, nice, NY, Chicago, and miscellaneous wood fire. Haven't been to Italy yet but I'm sure they've got great pizza. I had excellent pizza (top 2) from two places in San Antonio. One was Dough which was authorized by the Italian government to serve authentic napoletana pizza. Had the oven sent over from Italy that they cook it in. The other place was big Lous there. They made pizzas that had slices the size of babies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wiffleball 4,631 Posted April 27, 2017 We had a family joint called Ponzos in Houston. True family - like the two brothers didn't get along and stuff. One day, a priick in the same strip mall got on one of the Owner guy's nerves - the Owner literally dragged him outside and broke his nose. Â As soon as they found out I had priests in the family? I pretty much had to BEG them to take my money. THEY made good pizza. - Texas, huh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
