| - A long time ago when I was a child living in Toronto, there used to be a place called Pizza Pizza where they would sell pizza by the slice( with a variety of toppings) and you can order drinks and actually sit down and eat. In 11 years, I suppose that these places have pretty much vanished. There are almost no places that serve smaller portions with dine in areas besides Pizza Hut, and the closest Pizza Hut in Mindapore have now turned into a daycare. I wonder if these kids who go there eat pizza everyday, or if Pizza Hut is now catering exclusively for them? Most other franchises only have take out and delivery. This place in my mind preserves some old charm, as they sell pizzas in individual sizes. This is better than pizza by the slice because my dad and I ordered two different pizzas and we could share. For little kids, there are crayons behind the pop machine and colouring books available. I flipped through the colouring books, and to no surprise, the majority of the pages are already coloured in, and the kids didn't bother to take their artwork with them! Nevertheless, what kid doesn't like free colouring pages? I mean as a 90s baby a.k.a pre iPad addiction baby, these were my life! I'm sure there are some empty pages. They also have pop with free refills in reusable hard plastic( better if they are glass but oh well I'd give them credit) cups. Now, this is another old charm that I like, similar to A&Ws. To me, pop is best served in a clear reusable cup so that you can see the drink inside, makes it look more refreshing. The fast food paper cups are lame. The pizza, don't expect this to be fast food, because he makes each pizza individually, but it's fairly quick and there's a Red Sox game on TV and music for entertainment. The pizza is thin crust, all their pizzas are thin crust and the salami and green pepper was pretty good. Only problem was that almost all the green pepper fell onto the metal plate underneath( they serve it on a plate, not a box unlike Coco Brooks). My dad ordered a 5 topping pizza and most of the veggie toppings fell off too. There was an option for a 6 or more topping individual pizza, I am almost afraid to imagine how that would turn out.. maybe only the pepperoni and cheese would stay on... Overall the atmosphere was decent, and by the way there's a really funny ad in the women's bathroom, what is it you ask? Too embarrassed to say, go check it out for yourselves ladies. No, it's not period supplies or birth control, if it was then I wouldn't be afraid to admit it, it's something way more sensitive. I would dare them to put the ad in the men's washroom and see the reaction. Would they die of laughter or get angry? I don't know, maybe both. There's also a less embarrassing funny sign outside. It said " Self service unless you are over 80 AND accompanied by your parents"
