| - Ever had one of those moments where you want to forget that something ever happened? I just had one of those. It was after eating at CiCi's.
In all of my young adult years, I've never found a reason to complain about pizza. I've had cheap pizza, and higher end pizza. They are what you pay for; and generally, what you expect. CiCi's was a different case, however. Sure, it's a real cheap price for an all you can eat extravaganza, but is it really worth it?
Maybe as a kid I wouldn't mind this place. Heck, as a kid, anything pizza-related sounded good to me. Combine two awesome foods, like mac & cheese and pizza? That sounds like a childhood fantasy. But, when actually having that cardboard slice of pizza with macaroni & cheese thrown on top was like I dumpster dived for a slice of pizza and found mac & cheese residue on top. The pizza didn't taste good, nor did the mac & cheese. Combine the two and you get an exponential amount of awful.
Sure they have the normal pizza with the traditional toppings. Thing is, they taste similar to pizza that sat out in a drunken dorm room for about a week, maybe worse. Then they also have the crazy combination pizzas, like the mac & cheese or one with Taco Bell style toppings thrown on top, which make absolutely no sense at all. Putting such low quality food and combinations made my taste buds weep tears of sadness. That night, I wouldn't be surprised if half of my taste buds shut down on me in sheer disappointment, forever leaving me with the palate of a senior citizen.
Yes, the place was all-you-can eat. All I was able to handle was 1.5 slices. It was after that, I was done and walked out.
Never again, I said to myself. Never again.
