Attack of the Monster Pizzas

Meet my brother, master surfer of the world wide web. He’ll browse, poke, peek and travel all over the net just to find that little nuggets of information that he wants. To my chagrin, however, that included a bunch of viruses, trojans and worms. That’s why I was so happy when he finally got his own PC.

During one of his many webscapades (actually, yesterday), he came across a local niche pizza maker- Jugno’s Monster Pizzas. Since payday happened to have just graced his wallet with some cash, he decided he wants to eat a monster pizza, and so he ordered.

In an age where the pizza huts and the yellow cabs mostly have a guaranteed time of 30 minutes to an hour, someone that tells you right off the bat that they’ll need at least 2 hours is a major turnoff, since you’re probably dead-hungry as of the time of the call. But realizing that Jugno’s offers really monstrous pizzas, their largest being a whopping 20′ monstrosity, (at around 450- 600 php) it’s hard not to consider it. And to top it off, you can even mix in your pie up to 4 flavors, and even choose how they should slice the pie. No wonder they should take that long.

So 2 hours later, the delivery man came, handing me a large box. It was finally time for the taste test! Dear old bro bought a 20′ pie composed of Beef ‘n Mushroom, Pepperoni, Garlic Mushroom and All-Meaty Monster. Unlike the other pizza joints, the pie came with 4 small containers holding chili sauce(with real chili) and garlic sauce. I liked the garlic sauce much, I forgot to taste the other one.

As for the pies itself, the stuff is great! It’s almost as if I was eating a yellow cab pizza, but only the pie was way more larger. The dough kinda tastes like something you’ll find in a 3m pizza pie (another local brand), but the toppings and the sauce are top-notch.

But, with a pie this large, there’s always the danger of eating too much. The 20′ monster was meant for 6-8 people, where as there were only 4 at us there. Couple of slices later I was dizzy from the pizzas and the garlic sauce.

It sure was worth it, though.

Disclaimer: I wasn’t paid to do this. Please. You’d think anyone would pay me for my opinion?
