Papa John's
I really hate to complain....I was so excited a couple of years ago when Papa Johns came to town.
Now after 2 years I have given up....
First, I can't list the number of times that I have went there and have tried to order a 9" pizza only to be told that they are out of 9" crust. OUT OF 9" CRUST? Don't they tout that all their items are created fresh?
Anyway, being a good guy and wanting to eat Papa John's I always gave in and bought the 12" pizza.
Now, last week, there is a new pizza on the menu...Papa's Favorite or something like that... Tried to order, "Sorry new pizza we don't have the ingredients for this." I met my limit...stormed out and told the manager standing by the front door (in Chinese) that I was leaving for Pizza Hut and would not ever be coming back.
He said "bye-bye"...
So "bye-bye" Papa John's maybe other folks love you more than I do.
That's just another example of the lack of understanding of Customer Service I talked about in another thread.
I went there once a few years ago and ordered a Mexican or Texan pizza. Can't remember the name, but both the picture and text description showed jalapeno peppers. Do you think I got jalapeno peppers on my Mexican pizza? Noooooo.
make your pizza at home! I have a great device called Pate reussite (French make ) - reminds of an electric waffle maker but bigger. You can make excellent pizzas, pies, quiches inside. Better than oven. There are equivalents sold on taobao. I think i translated it something like electric pizza maker and taobao gave me a whole bunch of choice with reasonable prices. Around 200-300.
p.s. I'm yet to taste a really good pizza in zhuhai. No offence to anyone but all I tried was so-so.
I hear 'Portofinos' italian restaurant has pretty good pizza..
Try the "Spagetti House" just behind the McD in the Jida duty free center.
Can anyone give good directions to Portofino's? And a telephone number that they will answer?
They don't answer the telephone number listed in their advertisement on this site.
You may try Euro Deli.

Oh yeah. That's the one for sure... (the restaurant).







Sooooo....is there any decent place to get a pizza in Zhuhai? I detest Pizza Hut but I will not go back to Papa John's. I have tried other places too but just curious if any one out there has some good experiences?
Also, has anyone thought about using nang bread from the XinJiang restaurant as a pizza crust? That stuff is delicious and I think it would be great for a pizza crust!
