So, tonight I decided to embark on a pizza treasure hunt again. I found out they have Dominos and when I called, they delivered to where I am!! Again, there was much rejoicing. Now even those of you who turn your nose up at the thought of Dominos, just wait until you are 8,000 miles away from your familiar pizza places and even your mouth will water at that lovely red, white, and blue design. I called and wanted to order 2 pizzas. 2 mediums. I was hungry and wanted food for the weekend. They said they only have one size - large. Sweet! OK! I ordered half Hawaiian and half pepperoni and 2 cokes thinking they were the 20 oz size. $23. OK, that's about normal. When the guy shows up, he gives me two HUGE Cokes (1.25 liters each) and an eetsy bitsy tiny pizza (see picture). I was slightly disappointed. It's the size of about an American small, but cost the same as an American large! I ate it but it wasn't easy. The pepperoni tasted like fish. Probably because they offer a "prawn" pizza. Prawn is a fish. Um, yeah. The Hawaiian half was ok. Word to the wise: Abandon your cravings for American food when in another country. It'll probably be better for your health anyway ;)
On another note, McDonald's is better here than in the US.
Interesting Australia fact of the day: They frequently put egg on pizza.
Listening to: Foo Fighters

They put egg on pizza in Europe too. A big fried egg on top. There are people who are near and dear to my heart who maintain that a fried egg makes any dish better. I respectfully disagree.
I am a fan of eggs. I can be adventurous when it comes to eating various dishes. However, egg does not go on pizza.
The English like peas on pizza and the Chinese like fish. Yuck.
yet another reason to not try Mexican food in Melbourne!
Who knows what they would put in queso...icky!!!
