Not open for lunch. Shitty.


I'll have to try it some other time.


Btw, I googled it, and this tread came up.

Has this changed since? I want to go there for lunch. Their menu says open at 11:00 AM.

You know the feelin u get when ur watching iron chef? u look at the screen and ur like fukk how can i get some of that...and how much is it gon cost?
see i ran into this thread about a week ago and made it a up point to check this place out.. so tonite i did...
the ppl that own the store are great..very warm and welcoming... and they guy who i spoke to (i guess he designed the menu) seemed to know alot in culinary arts.. not so much on an academic standpoint (cuz i wudnt no) but more on a cultural aspect... very knowledgeable in terms of taste..how ingrediants compliment each other and how they often conflict.... how to compensate for different flavours when strong ones dominate. I dont eat pork and i had a "just came from the gym" situation so I ordered the Sirana supremme (its a veggie pizza with onions green peppers zuchinni brocolli etc) on whole wheat thin crust...i talked to the store owners while i waited and discover how he came about opening up his shop... kinda one of those stories ud here on a documentary about 5 yrs fromnow when he atakes over the pizza industry..a futurama flashback... anyhow.. he showed me some of the sauces he uses on the more exotic selection and i swear i jus wanted to taste it by looking at it... they were in tupper ware that had magarine and other brand logos on em so i already knew that these were al homemade...
when he pulled out the pizza i cud smell the pizza and my plans to wait til i got home to eat it were dismissed so by the time i got to the car i was already takin generous bites...being in a hurry, ud figure that i would be eating fast but the flavour of eat ingrediant lingered in my mouth and the sublt aroma of the zuchinnie and green pepper filled my nostral as i reached the crust.. now u remember the cheese that would kinda burn up a bit when i make those cheese sandwiched in the sandwiche maker? u no that taste that slightly burnt cheddar has?? the smell it has..the rst tastes just like that and as you bite throu u can taste the softness of the bread welcomin ur gums rather than chafing ur mouth like most thin crust pizzas do.. he gave me an upgrade on the size and after debating on the whole ride home i relutantly gave a few slices to my sister... u guys need to go there asap and just pick a pizza and let me no how it went...

Can you order one with whatever toppings you want instead of only what's there? I'm picky.

[Weapon_R]

You sure can

[abyss]

Awesome. Guess I'm gonna have to make Hampstor take me here then, I haven't had a good thin crust in a VERY long time. (besides what I make at home of course... )
