| - Maybe I just had bad luck, but.....
I saw the good reviews and some pictures that made it look like Aladdin's pizza was similar to Colonnade's pizza - crispy cheese on top, lots of toppings in the middle - and was more than a little excited to get that kind of pizza without having to, y'know....go down to Centretown and lug a pizza back on the 14. (People get weird about pizza on the bus.)
So I call and order a large pepperoni and olive (olives are good dwi haters), and the man on the phone says "30 minutes, maybe less." About 45-50 minutes later, he shows up, and.....this $20 pizza has become a $25 pizza. And another dollar on top of that to pay with debit. And tip.
When I get it inside, I find out it's.....well, it's not what I was hoping for. Blobby, oily cheese with a gross aftertaste, sparse toppings, and a crust that was way too doughy everywhere but the ends (which were burnt. i mean, i asked for well done, but jeez.) And that's okay if it's Pizza Shark prices, but for almost $30....
I think I'm going to stick with Colonnade's. :/
