Have you tasted any of these, liuzhou? If so, how are they?

 

Unfortunately, yes. Only one. The classic bacon one. I did manage to persuade them that I really, really didn't want corn on it. I should have asked for no pizza on it, too. It was horrible.

 

They cook them one at a time on one of those stupid, small conveyer belt ovens which are nowhere near hot enough. THe base is more like sponge cake than like pizza crust. The "cheese' was processed gloop and the topping wasn't any form of bacon I've ever seen before or since.

 

Years ago, we had an excellent pizza place in town. Best pizzas I've eaten outside of Italy. No one went but me! So, of course, they didn't last long. Weeks after it closed, Pizza Huit opened its first store and the locals were lining up along the street, waiting up to two hours to get in for their foul imaginings of Italian food. I wanted to weep.

 

In the last couple of years, there has been an explosion in pizza places, but I'm sure no one who works in them has ever seen or eaten a real pizza. They've just seen pictures and decided that what the pictures lack is some CORN!
