Mama Meal Review: The Pizza Company - Hawaiian pizza

Ordered from:
The Pizza Company

Price (1 item): 379 Baht

I don't do pizza anymore because I can't take lactose and I'm not comfortable supporting the beef and dairy industry with my money by buying items with cheese or steak. I also don't care much for either of those anyway, which made them easy to give up.

My mother, however, does not share my inhibitions, so when she ordered from The Pizza Company (which is directly outside the Rattanachol hotel) I asked for her review.

Everything my mama said about the pizza will in quotes, transcribed from a voice recording of her. My comments are the ones not in quotes.

"I ordered a medium and it does look kind of small. And I've got a pan crust, and it looks very tasty."

An order from The Pizza Company comes with some spice packets, including oregano and chili. Many ketchup packets are also provided for some reason.

"My opinion is that it is very tasty. It tastes almost like Pizza Hut at home [in Canada]." ... "I like the pan crust, it is very much like at home [sic]. The tomato sauce is a little more tomato-y [then I'm used to], but it's very yummy."

"That's all my opinion is. That it's very yummy." I paused for further comment, to which I was replied a confused "Very yummy?".

I prompted her for further comment, particularly about the dough and the cheese. "The crust is very nice, and it's not overcooked. ...or undercooked, which is [a common problem with pizza restuarants]. And you have little squares or rectangles of ham, and a pretty decent amount of pinapple on each piece. And it's a little bit saucy."

At this point I prompted her to compare The Pizza Company's pizza to the hotel's room service pizza, to which TPC faired very favorably.

"The hotel pizza that we had last time we were here and it was not what we were used to at all [sic]". She said. "I think the pizza at The Pizza [Company] is more like a regular pizza that we're used to. I think the one from the hotel... from what I remember... was not tasty."

No disclaimer about the item names, as this was purchased in person with no need for translation and can be identified easily.

Mama made one final comment while reading the review, which goes as follows:
"Yummy?".
