| - Alright, let me be honest: I never liked Pizza Hut. When I was 16 I worked there (and from my Domino's review you can catch a glimpse into what that was like) for a hot second and I have never, ever been back willingly. In fact, the one and only time I went willingly was when a then friend allowed us to stay after hours and the manager signed off on us getting free beer. We all called the place Pizza Slut.
I know, we're so original.
Folks, we live in a new era. Pizza Hut has swayed my cold, black, franchise pizza hating stomach. I don't know who got hired and who got fired in their PR department, but hot damn whoever is in charge now is doing great. They should be hired to make North Korea look like heaven or cat vomit a delicacy.
Ok, that's taking it a little too far, but you get my drift.
It all started with a random StumbleUpon. The Australian contest to make your own pizza, name it and enter to win crap. Not that I can win anything here, because I live in the ol' US, but it was kind of entertaining to come up with combos. Also, they can get duck on their pizza. You hear me? Duck.
So, I did a little internet searching and lo and behold a few months later Pizza Hut US rolled out a new menu. It was missing the duck, but that's aside from the point. It looked delicious. It promised new things. Sriracha was involved.
Lest you think I order pizza all the time out of laziness and love, let it be known that I actually enjoy making my own and the boyfriend usually has to beg me or piss me off to get me to agree to getting delivery. I like to cook and most of the pizza places that deliver in my area think, "Charred Crust, half a mushroom and ketchup tasting sauce" constitutes pizza.
Not Pizza Hut circa 2014! (and '15 now, I know)
The new menu is pretty awesome and the combinations are seemingly endless. Adding extra balsamic or sriracha drizzles or the long list of crust flavors for free is a great touch. The website is easy to navigate (I hate calling in delivery orders) and gives you a countdown that has never failed to be almost COMPLETELY on the dot accurate. The $11 ANYTHING YOU WANT (size, toppings, crust, etc.) online deal is awesome for people like me who can't make up their mind and want like 10 toppings. My pizzas used to cost a small fortune. There is an added charge for the stuffed crust, but it's a measly 2-ish bucks and I can't blame them.
So, for the second time since I discovered this new menu, we ordered some last night. Our pizza was on time. It was tasty. They even followed my orders to make the stuffed crust pizza extra crispy. The toppings were plentiful, the sauce was excellent. I always get the creamy garlic parmesan, but they have buffalo, BBQ, honey sriracha, classic marinara and premium crushed tomato.
tl;dr?
Pizza Hut doesn't suck anymore.
Also, search the internet for their newest Japan commercial that involves a bunch of cats running a store. Because. Why not?
