Message: [QUOTE="Hans Sprungfeld, post: 3850106, member: 181"] Again, this startles me, and sets me to thinking I now need a third visit. As with Joe's in NYC, I get that it's a popular slice location, but not why it's widely and highly praised. And I mean that as neither a criticism of you or (I think) SJ who is a fan, or even the slices I've gotten. To the contrary, I'm curious and will return. It would be dishonest or simple withholding for me not to acknowledge that yesterday I saw the Pizza Hut commercials for Detroit Style and thought, "So [I]that's[/I] what it is? Hmmm, I could see myself liking something like that if it were done well." That would, of course, first require some confirmation that the Pizza Hut depiction is an accurate enough representation of the overall concept. Is it? [USER=1522]@superjohn[/USER] too If someone further weighed in with," And Pizza Hut's version isn't bad," I'd give it a try. Or, here's where a coupon could even push me over the top. The last time a fast food ad during TV sports piqued my curiosity, it was for Popeye's chicken sandwich, and my investigation resulted in my getting into somewhat of a habit before it outstripped their capacity by being so popular. And only the pandemic has created a drop-off. Tbh, the $4.28 price tag and drive-through access at late hours has helped, but still it remains an option that I know is always there under those same terms. None of the above negates anything else I've written throughout this thread. It just acknowledges that a crispy, caramelized, possibly 'buttery' bread (with even a hot-soft interior) could hit a bunch of mouth-feel & flavor notes, complemented by melted cheese, a meat topping, and a thick tomato-y sauce. And I could additional imagination that it might not be that hard to make, so that PH food engineers could pull it off. [/QUOTE]
