Will try and report back. Fong’s rarely makes a bad pizza so I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt. It’s not like they’re putting fruit loops with marinara. *I assume. Didn’t read the article.
Fong's is good pizza. I'd try it just because they made it but it does sound bad. Their crab rangoon pizza is money.
Stephen A. Smith: (Acts surprised) "To me, that's preposterous. Crab Rangoon, things of that nature."
Worked a high school football camp in middle of nowhere Western Iowa, about a decade ago. I had never heard of breakfast pizza, but had it nearly every day that I was there. My expectations were extremely low, considering the place that everyone swore had the best breakfast pizza was a gas station, but it was much better than expected. I’d eat it again, willingly, but have no cravings for it.
Casey’s is incredibly overrated. Best breakfast pizza I’ve ever had is from Whole Foods. Guy made eggs, cheese, spinach and Prosciutto.
When Casey’s is on it’s good. Most of the time it’s pretty meh. You learn what to look for in the case. A lot of the time I’ll look and walk away. There are some good scratch made breakfast pizzas around. Most have a sausage gravy base and several meats.
I’ve only had one good one but it’s really good. Ukrop’s used to be a grocery store in VA (bought out by Martin’s but they still have the premade food portion under the Ukrops name) and their breakfast pizza is outstanding.
Yes their quality control has gone down hill, their taco also used to be very good but now you are better off getting a Mexican tombstone for the money.
Point me in the direction of this sausage gravy breakfast pizza. Sounds incredible. I don’t usually look at the pizza when I go to my normal breakfast joints but I’m going to have to start. I could see Truman’s making a good breakfast pizza but I’ve only ever been there for lunch and dinner. Hot take: I’d choose Mullets breakfast over Drake Diner and Waveland Cafe. Everything on the menu is killer and they make a good White Russian.
I’ve only been to drake once, and it wasn’t spectacular. When I lived near waveland I went a few times and it was as average a bacon and eggs place as you can get. The pizza I’m thinking of was from a place in St. Charles. Cast iron skillet crust. No idea if they’re still open. It was the only restaurant in town. Another good one was Baker’s Amaco/BP. Long gone now, used to be at SW 9th and the bypass. this is now the central Iowa breakfast thread.
Agreed. Drake I’ve only been once as well and while it was good I don’t care to wait in line on a table to get breakfast. Waveland I couldn’t agree more. It’s just like any other old school mom and pops cafe. I love them but they’re a dime a dozen. A lot of hype for your average breakfast. I’ll have to look into this place in St. Charles. Hopefully it’s still open. That’s not too far out of my way when I head back home to SWIA.
There’s this place I’ve always wanted to try when I’m in Des Moines near some shitty golf store. But I’m usually just there for pancheros.
There was a place like that in a small town just outside Dubuque. It was a gad station/repair shop/restaurant. Made some damn good breakfast and lunch specials. The best part is you could get a full meal for $5, top off the ole pickup, and get your serpentine belt fixed all at one stop.
What place? I’m trying to cross reference golf and pancheros, and no pizza worth trying is coming up in my mind.
aldis has a few breakfast pizza options and what’s not to like about a biscuit crust, sausage gravy, cheese, sausage and bacon?
