Costco Wholesale Pizzas

Costco had a sales promotion the other day at the office, trying to get more people to sign up for their club membership. They promised pizzas but came with candies instead...imagine how disappointed the hungry pack were. However, they made good of their promise to bring pizzas today!

I was expecting some microwavable pizzas to be brought in, considering the large number of frozen pizzas Costco carries on their shelves. To my surprise, they were freshly baked Costco pizzas. Wonder since when they started to do pizzas as well. It's been a while since I last visited Costco. I still remember they used to have brown sugar coated mini donuts stands in their stores...my favourites...but they took them out! Why o Why...

The pizzas came...a total of 10 boxes at least. As I had already eaten a bit of snack an hour ago, didn't have much on my plate



Went with the veggie and the meat lover's, the best of both worlds. Taste, texture, and presentation just isn't up to the standards of other pizza chains here. Veggies were too dry (overbaked), ingredients sparse, and dough tough....just like frozen pizzas. Very disappointed. I guess that's why we leave everything to the experts (nudge nudge Boston).

Diurnal Pabulum: BBQ Chicken Feast Pizza

Does all pizzas taste the same? Domino's Pizza is one of the pizza franchise that I frequent less often, not sure why.

One reason or another, we ordered from Domino's...their BBQ Chicken Feast Pizza.



It was really good. Melted cheese on anything is delicious :) The sauce was nicely portion, enough taste to excite the tongue, but not too mushy. I like the crust, it's doughy, just like cream puffs.

Definitely worth a thought for my next pizza order.

Boston Pizza

Went to the field today to wrap up a busy week, and get more experience out there. Knowing I'll probably get home by 7 pm earliest, decided to drop by Boston Pizza on the way home for some dinner.

Ordered their Chicken Fajita and the Tropical Chicken Pizza for take out...



Chicken Fajita was good, the melted cheese, topped with some sour cream and salsa, Yummy :)

3.5/5



The pizzas...what can go wrong with Boston Pizza's pizza. Delicious as expected...moist, sufficient toppings, perfect amount of sauce, and just the right proportion of cheese for that melt-in-your-mouth sensation. For some reason, a few people in the office find it offensive to have any other meat (other than pork-based) on their pizzas. Personally, I like to have chicken or even seafood on mine, kinda unique taste to it. Of course, I wouldn't mind the meat lovers as well :)
