Pizza Hut can kiss my ass, right after U-Haul’s done

Posted: October 3rd, 2004 | Author: | Filed under: Diatribes, Japan, Software | No Comments »

I went in on some pizza with a bunch of guys from my dorm, and now Pizza Hut Japan is on my shitlist right beneath Keio and U-Haul.

  • I was able to order online. That’s good.
  • They have interesting toppings, like one with different toppings in each quadrant. For example, the “Delicious 4″ consists of the following independent Flavor Sectors™: Basil Italiano, Super Supreme, Idaho Special, and Meat Paradise. The limited availability special we got also came with potato wedges, corn salad, and ice cream. That’s good.
  • They took 2 hours just to get out the freakin’ door. That’s bad.
  • The special I mentioned above cost ¥3,550 for the “Large” size. That’s about US$32. That’s bad.
  • The “Large” size is a little bit bigger than an American “Medium.” That’s bad.
  • The pizza itself was good, once it got here. That’s good.
  • They forgot our corn salad. That’s bad.
  • They were out of the muskmelon ice cream. That’s bad.
  • The delivery guy just stood there, stupified, when he saw that I wasn’t Japanese. He might have just been braindead. That’s bad.

All in all, I’m extremely unimpressed. Especially after going to a Japanese McDonalds, which is like heaven compared to American McDonalds, this was quite a disappointment. We’ll be giving Domino’s a shot next time. They really need to bring back the Noid.

On an unrelated topic, I just put out Firefoxy, a drag-and-drop tool for applying Kevin Gerich’s fancy Firefox widgets. If you like Firefox but don’t like its ugly widgets, this is the easiest way to fix them.
