Another Sbarro moment: Gourmet Mushroom Pizza

(This is a backdated entry to September 18, 2006. I was cut off the line after a neighborhood moron finally realized that he'd better seal up his wireless. Damn...)

Since my best friend, Jack, is in town, I obligedly take him to sample a slice of pie. I was thinking about Aurelio's, but that requires driving. As I'd rather walk, I thought the best place to take him to is the Union. Ok, I admit my judgment is leaning toward a sorta school canteen's pizza hole: Sbarro.

Anyway, today, Jack and I went to the Union to get a taste of those crunchy, mouthwatering Sbarro pies. I was planning to get a slice of Philly Steak but I was out of luck. Apparently, the joint rotates its pie menu, so that day I could only sample their Gourmet Mushroom Pizza.

Jack got himself a slice of Gourmet Cheese Pizza. Judging from the look, I bet my slice and his would taste pretty good. Hey, after all, isn't gourmet supposed to taste better than non-gourmet? I asked for some pizza sauce, and the ladies were pretty generous by giving us a couple of small sauce cups and even asked if we needed more, in which I said no, that would be it. Anyway, the whole sampling experience didn't disappoint me or Jack at all.

He enjoyed his cheese pie, I enjoyed the seasoned mushroom slices on mine. I think there's no need to dissect the pies further as I did in the past because the only thing different is the topping. Everything, taste, texture, is the same. Even Jack agrees that the taste and texture of his cheese pie are exactly what I described in earlier entries on Sbarro. So without further BS-ing, we pronounce Sbarro the best. Hats off for another excellent sampling day!
