they were crappy, no I don't want a personal pan pizza with 55 gallons of pepsi and cinnamon sticks!
You gotta admit 80s Pizza Hut was GOAT level dining back in the day for kids. So classy and Splatterhouse, tabletop Pacman and Rampage arcades.
You in Illinois?
Every now and then I'll be at some shitty old family owned restaurant and they'll have those clearish red plastic cups and I get instant nostalgia.
I didn't say it's the best in Italy, just that it's better than NYC and Connecticut pizza. NYC water isn't the secret to good dough unless you think lead is the missing ingredient to good pizza
Personal pizza served in the pan it was made in, places on that little cork thing. Then telling a six year old "It's a little hot" knowing full well that they'll immediately burn the fuck out of their mouths.
The stories I could tell about pizza hut. It was my first job in the restaurant world and where I got started in management. It's why I am so disgusted with what it has become.
Pizza Hut Supreme Pan Pizza, before they fagged it up with the "large toppings" will forever be my favorite pizza. We had that shit once every couple of weeks when I was a kid. The first time we ever got Papa John's I puked it up not long after eating it.

I've got a bunch of them in my pantry, but I don't drink soft drinks, so I just stare at their majesty sometimes.
Dude, it's not better than Ottawa.
It was awesome but a pain in the ass to make. There were so many toppings that with the normal speed of the pizza oven the middle would be raw dough, the ovens had a glass door on the front that you could open.
So you would have to pull it off the track with pan tongs and stick it back into the oven at the right spot so that it was cooked and not burnt.
You were screwed on a busy night if the oven was loaded.
When they added the bigfoot pizza it made it worse, they took up so much room in the oven.
I do miss making the dough there though. It was very relaxing and cerebral. I can still make a perfect dough ball after 35 years.
I have heard they no longer make dough fresh in house and order in frozen and just proof them which would be why the quality has gone down so much.
Plus we made the sauce fresh every day, based off the taste I would say they are just bringing in canned now.
The sauce is runny ketchup now. Pizza Hut was literal gourmet back in the day. Fight me, again.
Never been to Ottawa so I can't say one way or the other, I do have family close to there though so maybe one of the times I visit I'll head there and try their pizza. Where do you recommend?
Evidently, my palate has been sophisticated since I was a child.
Our local hut still had the buffet/salad bar till covid hit. I love me a good salad bar.
Yeah, it's nowhere even close to what it was. We would mix tomato paste, water and seasonings and it was perfect. Would make 5 gallon batches at a time. It was money. This new shit doesn't even taste the same.
When you'd get a good pan pizza the cheese just hit diffferent. When it would be like a blanket on the crust. Now you usually get a shitty one where the cheese covers up half the slice if you're lucky...
It depends on what kind of pizza you want, and where you are in the city. It's not like Ottawa is renowned for its pizza, but Italian pizza is wildly overrated, unless you want to eat nothing but Margheritas.
