When It’s Time for Pizza Check the Pizza O’Clock

Ordering pizza through Foodbyphone.com is almost too easy and convenient. Luckily for adventure’s sake FoodbyPhone only lists two pizza delivery places.  This means after Pizza O’Clock I’m going to have to practice my Thai and find places that deliver and actually communicate my order.

I ordered Pizza Capricciosa which was topped with ham, mushrooms, olives and Italian sausage.  It came within 45 minutes and was nice and hot when I got to my apartment.  The cost was 370 baht ($11USD) plus the delivery charge which was 60 baht ($1.79) and I tipped the delivery guy 40 baht ($1.19) which come to think of it, is way too much to tip in Thailand.

Pizza O’Clock vs. Pizza Mania

The first pizza delivery in Bangkok that I reviewed was Pizza Mania and while it wasn’t the most extraordinary pizza I have had, I didn’t have any complaints.  Rather than stringing you along I will tell you right off that Pizza O’Clock was better than Pizza Mania.  It could have been the actual type pizza I got but if it comes down to it, I will order from Pizza O’Clock again before I order from Pizza Mania.  The price of Pizza O’Clock is slightly higher than Pizza Mania but I thought it was well worth it.

Overall Impression

The Capricciosa I got from Pizza O’Clock was delicious.  The toppings and the cheese were all flavorful and the crust was thin and not soggy at all but not crunchy throughout which is how I like it.  It was located on Sukhumvit Soi 49 and I’m on Soi 1 so I was kind of worried of the pizza taking forever to get to my apartment and not be fresh but thankfully I was wrong and everything was excellent.  My ratings don’t have 1/2 or 1/4 ratings but if I had to rate Pizza O’Clock I would give it 2.85 Buddha (out of 4) so I’ll round up and give it the following.
