Variety Underground.
ORDER: 1 slice of cheese
PIZZA REPORT: Um, not so good. The slice I had suffered from a number of pizza related problems, yet I still ate it. First of all, I ordered the pizza to be ready at 6:30pm for the 7pm show. I think it was ready at 6:10, giving it 20 extra minutes to cool down. Pizza is best when it's piping hot, in my opinion. The second problem was the bubble factor. During the cooking process it is common (if the pizza crust is not perforated) for the dough to bubble up. Once a bubble forms, the cheese and tomato sauce slide off the bubble due to gravity leaving a bite-size patch of crusty dough in the middle of the pie. My pizza had not one but two bubbles on it. The third problem was red-edge-overcompensation. This occurs when the pizzamaker puts too much cheese or too little sauce on the outer crust. My slice was a victim of both. I did still eat the whole slice. My slice's redeeming quality; the sauce. Domino's pizza has really tasty tomato sauce.
