They were fucking KINO. And since it was slightly more like a real restaurant than fast food, they actually gave a shit about making good pizza. Deep pan pizza was so fucking nice when they brought it out in a hot-ass cast iron skillet. Damn

There's a Pizza Hut near me that's the most depressing restaurant in town. A bunch of lights are burnt out, the staff consists of old women who are probably too scary to be lunch ladies and brain dead niggers. All of the TVs are broken and old. It probably was remodeled in 2000. Being in there is sad and weird.

Pzone isn't what I remembered but the stuffed crust pizza is still kino. Get it to go.

They actually opened a new Pizza Hut in a neighboring town a few years ago--haven't gone.

Did you guys do the Book-It program? We had a thing where if we read enough books (and passed a comprehension test) we would get a little voucher for a personal pan pizza. My mom picking me up from school for lunch at Pizza Hut? Very kino.

True, Pizza Hut is being massively mismanaged. They really fucked up by ignoring the $5 large pizza trend and continuing to focus on in store dining. When the rest of the industry went for value they arrogantly thought they were good enough for people to pay $12 for what they could get elsewhere for $5 and that their customers were willing to spend their time eating at the Pizza Hut location instead of at home. My local Pizza Hut doesn’t even deliver. What kind of fucking pizza place doesn’t deliver? It makes no sense. They could put a teenager in charge of the companies operations and they would do a better job.

Yeah they may have been slow to adapt, but don't forget in the 70's & 80's they were packed on weekends. It was a tradition, in the midwest anyway, for the coach to take the little league team to pizza hut if they won their game. It was literally THE pizza place in flyover during that time.

I'm actually gay and I, too, like many of those here, enjoyed Pizza Hut in the early 90s, with their piping hot deep dish pizzas that would be brought to your table in the hot (cast iron?) pan they were baked in, but I realize national chain pizza is crap and isn't worth any price unless that's the only food you have to eat somehow.

Probably a State issue thing here, as we still have State Beer and Spirits Control, which is why everyone drives to Kentucky to get better varieties and cheaper hooch.

Also heard it can take a restaurant a couple years and tens of thousands of $$$ to get a Liquor License, even if they're only serving beer.

Exactly how mine was, dim and smelling intly of cheese but in a weird way like it came from years worth of Parmesan ground into the carpet instead of from the kitchen. Did yours have a small sad island with two heat lamps that got called a"buffet"? The remodel was strange, too. All they did was paint the roof grey, put in higher tables, and hang some junk on the walls to promote Wing Street.

For my birthday, I asked my parents if we could go to a sit down Pizza Hut so we could get a Priazzo.

NO REGRETS.

Priazzo. Not a deep dish pizza. More like putting another pizza on top of a deep dish. Closer to a stuffed pizza, but with a unique crust. Used a 10 inch heat sink to cook it.

That was their greatest creation, but took time and effort to make. Thus, another quality product that ended up on the scrapheap due to the race to mediocrity that reigns supreme in our food culture.

The pizza hut I worked at (and pretty much all others in my region) had $10 any way you want it large pizzas on and off for like 4 years, papa johns and dominos did the same shit. This was their answer to little ceasers. it definitely drove a lot of sales when I was there.

It's super popular in Honduras. Pretty much the most popular restaurant in the country. When you call to place an order it gets routed to a national call center where they take your order and are super friendly and professional, instead of getting an overworked restaurant employee in a loud and busy dining room.

A friend of mine is the manager of a Pizza Hut and said that pretty much the entire company is hemorrhaging money.

I figure it's a mix of it falling behind other pizza chains in terms of quality, as well as food delivery apps becoming such a standard that pizza isn't the only thing to have brought to you now. People have choice as far as delivery goes.
