In the middle of a Bang x3 (after taquito takeout from Cielito Lindo and before Jeni’s Splendid I FINALLY go to…
Today they should change the name to SuperSlightlyBetterThanOkButNotQuiteFine.
Ok I had to look back and see if I misunderstood how this pizza crust is supposed to be.
Gotta say, everyone else’s experience was not my experience today. I got 3 slices. Ate right away in the car in their lot.
Pepperoni slice and a Salami Honey
The crust had great color. And when I picked it up, it flipped over… limp. Zero crisp at all. Floppy. Pepperoni was awesome! Great spice, crisped edges. The crust has great taste but TOTALLY like a Neapolitan crust. The cornicione had really great taste and chew. Missing the slight crunch.
The honey salami crust was better. It had a little more crisp. It would be a great breakfast cereal. Like @lapizzamaven , I am convinced honey belongs in dessert not pizza. Yuck.
Spinach On White
Again, not great texture on the crust. The flavor of the pie was fantastic. The spinach wasn’t soggy and actually had some crisp and chew, crispier than the crust. Cheese garlic… really good.
So here’s what I think the problem is. The ordering system. So I went to the window and the guy told me I had to order online. When I go to order online it told me the pick up time was a half hour. So I drove around for a half hour and then came back and picked it up. The cook made it seem like it just came out of the oven and it certainly was hot. But he told me next time I can place the order through the app and immediately come to the window so that may account for the issues.
Bummed that this was my first time there. I’ll give them another shot. Toppings and crust flavor awesome.
Definitely can see this is not true NY style. I can see why they call it a hybrid.
Oh… here are the taquitos…
