Yesterday at lunch Diogo and I passed by a Papa Murphy's pizza place. Diogo, being an avid pizza lover, asked that I grab one on my way home from work. So I did. When I walked in, the place smelled great and was very clean. Cleanliness is a must for me. I used to work in a pizza place, and if its not kept in tip top shape, you get bugs (sorry but its the truth) really fast. I placed my order for their stuffed pizza special for $10, and an order of cheese bread. In all, my order came to about $15. Which, in my head, I was thinking must be some great pizza..especially since all the pizza places around here are having all kinds of specials going on. And the fact that I still had to take it home and bake it.
She starts with the cheese bread first. Which is just a pizza, with a little garlic sauce rubbed on, then topped with a LITTLE BIT, and I do mean little bit, of cheese. REALLY PAPA MURPHY'S?? When I asked for more (I had already paid) she informed me that they are only allowed to use a certain amount of ounces of cheese, holding up a measuring cup. Wow. I get that people normally have to pay for extra cheese, I do. But you normally get a little bit of cheese to begin with!! AM I RIGHT?? I wish I had taken a before picture, but sadly all you get to see is the after. Luckily I had cheese at home, and loaded it down like cheese bread should be.
Then on to the stuffed pizza. This thing hardly had any sauce, and all around bland. Sure the meats had flavor, but the dough and sauce, nada!
Again, I didn't take a picture of the middle, when it was cut. Blah. I'm sure more people think this place is good than bad, otherwise their wouldn't be a franchise. But as for us, we'll stick to the Papa John's.
