DISGUSTING. As soon as I called this location I could tell I was in for it. Unfortunately for me I'm not visiting a part of Columbia where I have access to anything else. I began by asking if the address I'm at could be delivered to. The person who answered the phone was very obviously annoyed that he had to check, mumbled a response and when I asked him to repeat it, he sighed and said, "I said YES." He sounded as though he was under the influence of something. I ordered: ONE LARGE PIZZA, HALF PEP/HALF CHEESE; TWO MEDIUM PIZZAS, ONE PEP, ONE CHEESE, AN ORDER OF CHEESY BREAD, AND A 2-LITER SPRITE. Simple enough. I had to repeat it to the high/drunk/ignorant/all three employee about five times. I'd asked for half of the large to be 'plain', overestimating his three-letter-per-word limit - he had a hard time getting that I just wanted cheese. I asked if garlic is a topping option, and he seriously did not understand what I meant. He went so far as to take his mouth from the phone and laugh about my question with his other coworker, while I was still on the phone (he did this more than once). When he tired of attempting to understand proper English he abruptly passed the phone to his [equally as intellectually disadvantaged] coworker. Coworker got on and confirmed what Summa Cum Laude had recorded, and read it back to me as, "Okay, you want two large pizzas, and one medium extra pepperoni, and one extra cheese?" No, nope, not what I said. I willed myself to remain calm and repeated my order. Then, suddenly, about 45 minutes into the call, I was told that due to the size of the order and the time it was placed (I'd called in at about 10:20 and it was now 10:27), I'd be required to pay by credit card. This really didn't work because I was ordering for 3 separate groups, but I said okay and gave my card number. The delivery thing arrived about 45 minutes later decked out in his permanent Lil Wayne costume, with the sizzurp (Sprite + cough syrup) red eyes to match. The gentleman of the house I'm at answered the door and I didn't realize he'd already tipped it. When I brought my tip (one United States dollar), to the door, Weezy joked, "You ca still gimme dat doe." I put my dollar back into my pocket, smiled, and gave it a thumbs up. As in, "I hope the rest of your life works out for you." Pizza was gross. Sprite was not included.
Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country.
