Re: Pizza Playing Cards
I love it! My only criticism is when I think "Italian restaurant tablecloth" I think of red and white checkers, not aqua marine. I really like the aqua marine color and I'm not sure how a red tablecloth would look underneath a pizza with red sauce on it (too much red maybe?) but maybe you could conger something up of it weren't too much work?
P.S. Let me be clear- I'm still backing these heavily regardless.

Re: Pizza Playing Cards
As happy as I am that there's a pizza box involved but this campaign I was kind of hoping that I would somehow be the size of a tuck case for the cards. But what the hell time is 5 p.m. UTC + 2?

Re: Pizza Playing Cards
5pm UTC is actually 1pm Boston time...I am not sure what the +2 means here, but usually it helps identify a time zone which is either +/- “x” hours from UTCPipChick wrote:for Boston, that'd be 11amvasta41 wrote:As happy as I am that there's a pizza box involved but this campaign I was kind of hoping that I would somehow be the size of a tuck case for the cards.

Re: Pizza Playing Cards
UTC+2 is used for Central European Time and takes into account the time change in summer; here's a converter: https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/ ... =215&p2=43shermjack wrote:5pm UTC is actually 1pm Boston time...I am not sure what the +2 means here, but usually it helps identify a time zone which is either +/- “x” hours from UTCPipChick wrote:for Boston, that'd be 11amvasta41 wrote:As happy as I am that there's a pizza box involved but this campaign I was kind of hoping that I would somehow be the size of a tuck case for the cards.

it would be 11am in Boston because it's summer time I know this because I have family in Chicago and they are always 7 hours behind me in Germany.

Pizza-Relative: I hadn't eaten Domino's in 11 years, because when I tried it back then, it was purely awful (worse than a poorly-made Hot-n-Ready or Cici's). A couple months ago, a friend ordered from them for lunch after a night of drinking, and it was GREAT. I'll sing their praises. I've been ordering from them almost every weekend now. Philly Cheese Steak with extra steak and green peppers, and Spinach/Feta-Stuffed Sticks... Best things on their menu IMO.

Re: Pizza Playing Cards
You know Italians can get very sensitive about pizza, but it's not my case. Pizza is a world food and it's a good thing it changes while it travels around the world. I'm not even mad about pineapple pizza, never tried, but I'm curious. Do you know that one of the most common pizza flavors in Italy is pear and gorgonzola? (a strong flavoured cheese more or less like the french rocquefort)

Re: Pizza Playing Cards
I would assume that's more of a northern Italian thing. Either way it sounds delicious although I would personally add some sort of protein to the mix, maybe some sopressata or capicola.

Luckily I live in a pizza mecca here in Boston where Papa Gino's is the only chain that could even hold a candle to all the wonderful "mom and pop" shops scattered throughout the city, such as the world famous Santarpio's or Pizzeria Regina. Not to mention my wife's favorite fig, pesto, and prosciutto pizza right out of my very own kitchen oven! Very excited for this deck!

Re: Pizza Playing Cards
My favorite combination at Bertucci's: pepperoni, chicken breast, crushed garlic, caramelized onion. A friend of mine and I came up with that combination, and it has remained my favorite ever since.

The more I read through these, the more hungry I get. I wish I lived in New York
I need to get me some Pizza sometime today.

Yeah, I didn't like Domino's before either. I used to be a Pizza hut guy, myself. But they have stepped up their game in recent years. My favorite toppings when I go there: Philly cheese steak, Onions, and baconTwoPieceFeed wrote:

Re: Pizza Playing Cards
any Chicago-style deep-dish fans here?? We have Italian pizzerias everywhere here in Germany, and so I always crave deep-dish and Giordano's is usually one of the first meals I get when I visit
