I chose tuna with celery n hubs had artichoke n cheese. They were good. What surprised us was the way they cut out the rectangular pieces and folded it like a sandwich !! We didnt see any round pizza's while lodging near the Roma Termini. Another counter had a selection of fried foods n they were too oily. It made us unwell. We wanted an experience in italian food but it didnt go well. We switched quickly back to chinese food. I see from ur pix that it has improved over time. They looked yum ! I also find cheese very jelak, esp when they r molten in quiche or pizza's n yet they r the flavour enhancers. Personally I like pizza's with a crispy paper-thin pastry. I started out that way when I was a teenager in SG. What I dont understand abt my home made pizza is that the mozarella doesnt melt evenly n it's not savoury ! Young Gouda cheese hv a better effect, so I'm sticking to that one. I was trying to recreate the yums I had in SG n I was told that the white mass is mozarella. Any tips from Cart abt the right cheese to use ? When hubs n I were in Rome, we walked around the narrow streets n came upon the first pizza counter.

Moreover, the ingredients are different and the time of resting isn't the same so the taste is not the same :-P Its not that thick, Pizza hut pizza is more like bread to me.
