Annoying things at Dominos

[kfc1]

Worked pretty late last night so ordered a pizza for dinner (just about the only thing still delivering at 9pm). Got the cheesy crust (homerdrooling.jpg) and a side of the chicken wings. Pretty damn good actually. And the leftover pizza was sensational as lunch.

Not the worst meal you could get

The chunks of plastic they call "ingredients"

1 - That it cost $492 for a BBQ chicken and Bacon
2 - That my doc told me i can't have deep-pan anymore

$4.95 monday tuesday pick up large pizzas tho...i give em the extra 5 cents cos they deserve it

I'm not ashamed to admit a BBQ meatlovers from Dominos is my hungover indulgence of choice.

OP couldn't finish a pizza in one sitting? They're not exactly big.

The deliverer can never speak English or do simple math properly

I normally do but I wasn't that hungry last night.

Order online, pay by card = no dramas with delivery drivers' math skills

Can't really fault Domino's other than their pizza is (as you'd expect) cheap and nasty. When you are paying $6 for a large pizza you don't expect the sort of quality you'd get from a top Italian restaurant, though.

You can order and pay online (and Google coupon discounts) then go and get it in 15 minutes or have it arrive on your doorstep. Driving to a McDonald's is probably faster, but ordering pizza online is the laziest of the fast food options.

Can't do the Dominos/Eagle Boys/Pizza Haven/Pizza Hut shite pizzas. Blobs of dough covered in plastic cheese.

We get ours from our local Pizzeria with real bases, real sauces, real ingredients made by real Italians and the Large pizza is LARGE.

Most annoying thing is having to pay extra to get a decent amount of cheese. That said the Eagle Boys is a 2 minute walk from work and eagerly await my call at 4:31PM every Friday afternoon that I'm at work. Often get little discounts here or there!


That said there was one time I tried to cook a home-made pizza, dough and all. I was 11 years old in Darwin, left alone in a unit with my at the time 9 year old sister (think the mother and her partner were putting on bets either on the greyhounds or the Caribbean Stud table at the casino, not sure and not game enough to ask). Made the dough OK, bit of self-raising flour, eggs, liquid and all that. Put the sauce on.....then realised I had NOTHING to put on it, no cheese, no toppings of any description. At least the dough turned out OK!

I hate it when your standing in line and someone drops a big fart in front of you. I find it really hard to distinguish between the smell of the pizza and the bomb in front of me. Its very confusing.

Not my go to place for pizza but if you think it's rock bottom, try Pepperonis on Elizabeth St.

So it was like a Dominos pizza then?

One just opened in my main street, prior to last Sunday I hadn't bought from them for a few years. I used to think they were cheap, this is no longer the case, cheapest pizza's are around $10 on the day I went there. Size is pathetic more like a normal pizza shops medium than a large. Very sparse of toppings. The ordering system and chick taking the order was like a talking robot. There is hardly any traditional types of pizza's on the menu, similar to Crust its all about prawns and BBQ sauce or some other shit combination. I opened the box and it looked like a supermarket frozen pizza.

I'll stick to the local store, there is 2-3 around here that are similar priced but give you a proper looking and sized pizza, or I'll make my own.

You can design ur own pizza u realise?

Too hard, its easier to complain.

I worked for dominos for two years, didn't mind eating the pizza, but once i left, and had to start paying for it, i realised how crap it was

That the pizzas have gotten much worse over the past 10 years (same can be said about HJ's burgers).

As a kid I loved getting Domino's, now I dislike it.

 

[kfc1]

They have improved massively in the past 18 months or so.

That wouldn't improve the size of the base nor the amount of toppings they will put on for the quoted price. Local pizza shops are far better value and taste better.

Deep pan Godfather was always a great little 'pick me up' at 1am house parties back in the day hahaha

The annoying thing is the cost/pizza ratio. Especially if you aren't picking up yourself. So many places offer more pizza for less money and the quality is just as good, if not better.
