Great Pizza Search
Overall Rating (Pending…but really good)
We have no rating as of yet because it’s been decided, as with White Cottage Pizza, carry out does not give a fair and accurate representation… and this night we were going to experiment. So, living dangerously, we decided to try something different than our usual ingredients which are:
Thin crust, all Black Olive, all pepperoni and ½ onion…sometimes ½ tomatoes on the onion side.
Instead the ingredients we chose were thin garlic crust, peperoni, bacon, onion, and garlic. The results of this combination… very good. Even being carry out, the crust was crisp and delicious and the ingredients were spread evenly so there weren’t areas of un-topped crust. We were thinking that it might have been a bit light on the bacon, but further consensus was that this might have made the pizza too salty. The only thing that everyone noted was that the cheese, while good, wasn’t stringy and stretchy. It just seemed like it needed more cheese.
Now, since we enjoyed this pizza so much, and were perplexed by the cheese, we decided that the following week we would place the same order, as carry out, but with extra cheese. That order has now taken place and to our surprise, the pizza was not nearly as good. The extra cheese was a flaw in what we thought was a perfect plan. We got our stringy and stretchy factor, but the flavor of the cheese overpowered the other ingredients which made this combination so delightful.
Phase III. We’ve decided to take one more stab at this pizza with the original order, however this time we’ll have it fresh out of the oven at Tre Amici Pizza.
To be continued…
FYI ~ It's the same owner. She bought out her TSP partners. The pizza is as fantastic as its always been.
