Best Pizza

That looks delicious. And that is exactly how I like my pizza.

Now with our Pick 6 Deal...things are picking up.

We have a good thin crust tho...with bacon and pineapple it's actually yummy.

I actually really really like Dominos

Pizza in NZ has alot of toppings - it is just alot more full of stuff than usual...

Here is a NZ site with what pizzas look like in general - now compare them to american pizzas...

Dude, Pizza Hut pizza is Pizza Hut pizza. NZ specialty pizzas look just like US specialty pizzas.

Im well aware of that - but those are not specialty pizzas - they are normal. Anyway, Im quite sure there is a difference in the way pizza is made in different countries....

Yeah, by "specialty" pizzas, I just meant a pizza that has a name and comes a certain way ... one you don't choose the toppings for. Anyway, I don't really wanna argue about pizza, since I love it so.

Really? I'm with Johnny Stew - I could eat only pizza for the rest of my life and be completely content. It's actually been a long time for me since I last had it ... 2 weeks?

OMG, I am a pizza fiend! (And I'm supposed to be going to bed soon--now I'll most likely go to bed hungry and dream about pizzas! LOL)

I'm from Chicago, where deep dish pizza is done right! I like 3 of the top 5 choices for deep dish pizza: Giordano's, Gino's East, and Lou Malnati's. There are other locations besides just the one address they list--all are chains. I'm going to have to say "hell no" to Home Run Inn pizza though. The list was obviously not compiled by a true Chicagoan, because I've heard their pizza is nasty--although, maybe people from the South Side are partial to it. Taylor Street pizza is also quite popular in these parts (although perhaps more in the suburbs than in the city), and I didn't see it on the list. I haven't been to any other places on the list, except Connie's, which is pretty good from what I remember.

I honestly haven't met too many pizzas I didn't like though, lol. I'll even go for California Pizza Kitchen; I love all their specialty pizzas.

2 weeks I have not had pizza for atleast 6 months! Im a bit of a health freak so I tend to only eat it on special occasions....

Pffft. Mangia has the best pizza in Austin. It's deep dish stuffed deliciousness!


Has anyone ever had a fried egg on top of their pizza? I've heard about this and am curious to know if it's any good.

Memphis is the closest city to me and it says Milano's is the best, but I've never heard of it. 'round these parts Cici's is the best.

Cici's ... like the buffet/self-serve type place?

We just started getting those around here ... I've only been there once or twice, and I was surrounded by too many screaming kids to notice if the pizza tasted good or not.

[DrummerDeanna]

OH my God---Cici's is vile Seriously - I've only been twice - but I got violently ill both times...yuck.

I just had pizza for lunch...Salvatore's, which is a pizza chain here in Rochester. It's not great -but it's definitely not bad - but like others have said, I don't think I've met a pizza I didn't like (except Cici's )
