President’s Day Kicks Off Pizza Week

I can’t find an “official” Pizza Week in the US, but, gosh darn it, there oughta be one! …and so, it’s my pleasure to announce that from this year forward, President’s Day – a rather lackluster holiday at best – shall be the kick off of Pizza Week. In honor of Pizza Week, I’m going … Read more

Godfather’s Pizza

I thought Godfather’s Pizza went out of business 20+ years ago. Once there were several of them, then they disappeared. It’s been so long since I’d eaten in one, I had completely forgotten what it was like. Now I find they’ve re-colonized the east valley and today I got the opportunity to try them. Even … Read more

Pizza Heaven

Pizza Heaven has recently moved to a new location on 7th Street. It’s in one of those previously residential homes that have been converted to a business, and they’ve done a nice job. The move is so recent, the paint was still wet on the walls when we visited. It’s a comfortable restaurant, and the … Read more

Pizza City

This is two weeks in a row that I’ve eaten in a residential house converted into a pizza place. (The other review has been delayed due to a fact-checking issue and will be posted after this one.) Pizza City is a weird little place which is only open 5 days a week: Sun, Tue, Thr, … Read more

Guidelines

Irene and Michelle had just eaten at the Chinese festival. I scrupulously avoid eating at the festival and so … Read more

It’s Not Pizza, It’s DiGiorno’s

On general principle I don’t review frozen pizza, they’re all bad, but that doesn’t stop me from eating them occasionally. The worst pizza is still better than the best cauliflower dish and they’re so darned convenient. One thing that does fascinate me about frozen pizza, and indeed about any frozen food, is the money and … Read more

Western Pizza Express

Western Pizza (or perhaps Western Pizza Express is a Canadian chain with one location in Phoenix. Looking at their website, they operate two types of locations: take out and delivery only (Western Pizza Express) and facilities that include dine-in also (Western Pizza). If that’s the case, the Phoenix location is a Western Pizza, although their … Read more

Pino’s Pizza Al Centro

Pizza is subjective. I’ll be the first to admit that. One person’s ultimate pizza is another man’s greasy cardboard. Some days when I’m eating a review pizza, I think, “no one could like this”. Other days I think, “this isn’t my cup of tea, but I could see how someone else could love it.” And … Read more
