After self indulgently taking a selfie or four with the monstrosity of a slice I proceeded to start eating.
*Before I go any farther, let me make sure I mention that
this is the first and only time I have ever eaten at the Pizza Kingdom, so I
may have just had a bad experience.
So, the first bite wasn’t anything remarkable, but not terrible. I mean, it was an extremely sweaty slice for a cheap price, I felt like I knew exactly what I was getting. The cheese ratio was actually really great, fresh mozzarella on top of what tasted like a hand made crust. At first I was enjoying it, my only critique would have been to ask for more sauce, because you know me – I like it saucy.
However, when you pay for a “jumbo slice” and you get a really jumbo slice, you want a pizza that has the taste to last. You don’t want to get tired of the flavor straight away. After about half of my jumbo slice, I almost didn’t want to continue eating (but I did…because, pizza). The more I ate the more I realized the overpowering amount of Italian seasoning on the pizza. The flavor got more and more irritating and I struggled to finish. I finally got to the crust, and I really love crust, but this was just unbearable. Overwhelmingly greasy and slimy – nothing worth looking forward to; I left a few bites of crust on my plate to make a statement, some real civil disobedience stuff.
The worst part of all was the taste that was left in my mouth for the hours to come after we ate. For about three hours my whole body, mouth especially, felt like I hat just eaten a bowl of melted I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter mixed with about three pounds of Italian seasoning and garlic. With the overwhelming amount of delicious pizza in the world, and a few places within walking distance of this pizza joint, I wouldn’t recommend Pizza Kingdom. Again, this was my first and only experience with the place, so I may have gotten an entirely wrong impression, but this Pizza Boy was not impressed with this level of slice-satisfaction.
