SAN FRANCISCO, California (The Adobo Chronicles) – It’s supposed to be the big day on Thursday for Pizza Hut : the official launching of its new pizza with hotdog-stuffed crust, a concoction that Italian chefs and bakers would almost be embarrassed to even think about.
The usually serious Washington Post took time out from its political news coverage to video tape a taste test of the new product among its newsroom staff.
But then, on the eve of the launch, Pizza Hut encountered an unexpectected competition from a little known Filipino pizza joint (MyBayKitchen.com) in the Silicon Valley, which came up with its more delicious and healthy alternative — pizza with lumpia (Filipino egg roll).
The Pizza Hut version uses mustard for its sauce on the side while the Filipino version uses banana ketchup.
The two pizzas look almost exactly alike, except that the Filipino pizza does not contain any pepperoni, just plain garlic, spinach and cheese combo, flanked with half slices of the Filipino lumpiang Shanghai, a superstar in the cuisine of this island nation of 100 Million people.
The Filipino concoction caught the eye of frozen pizza giant Digiorno which is reportedly in negotiations with the Filipino pizza joint to patent , distribute and sell the amazing and appetizing version of the otherwise boring Italian pizza.
Hollywood, California (EXCLUSIVE to The Adobo Chronicles) – The still unnamed pizza delivery guy who brought three large pizzas to the Oscars last night is undoubtedly now the most famous pizza delivery guy not just in Hollywood but all over the world. But everyone is wondering whether or not he received the fat tip collected by Oscar host Ellen DeGeneres.
