Best pizza in Korea? It was at Megabox Isu. They have a special floor called ArtNine and they had an Italian place there. Their margherita was amazing. Now? Brera. And Sanbon has a Monster Pizza now which is stupendous.
CO2: Since you brought this up in regards to semantics and opinions just the other day...I know what you think of people who make that claim hahaha

I also secretly love Pizza School. But it's not good. And it's barely pizza.
anyway i remember emart pizzas being fairly good (apart from their "chicago" pizza, which is one of the worst pizzas i've ever hadbest pizza delivery places? mine is 7번가피자

Uhhhh. I dunno about E-Mart's head office prohibiting them from making cheese pizzas. Looks like they make cheese pizzas at both E-Mart and E-Mart Traders. So... I mean, I feel like that's not really the case. Like, they're literally on the menu. They're called the Cheese Deluxe Pizza. Example 1Example 2Example 3

Korea and Japan reached a final settlement in the 60s. Once you've settled, it's final, you can't demand settlement again.

But they can make combination pizza.............. this pucking place, these phucking people. It's probably done by POS software, so if no button for cheese pizza, they can't do it. Or get this, it's a miscommunication. Why? They're probably assuming you'll want a lower price, which they can't do. Or, considering that most Korean pizza places DO offer Cheese Pizza, they might be thinking you're asking for a cheese pizza as though it's a menu item, and they're telling you "No, it's not a menu item."Instead just order a combination pizza and say "Pepperoni baego;, etc. etc." That might make them understand that you're willing to pay full price, you just want things off. HOWEVER, they still might be unwilling because they're either A) Concerned their boss will pitch a fit B) Concerned some customers might suddenly demand cheese pizzas and then demand substantially lower prices Here's the flip side to consider with Asian "lack of expression" and "just accepting things": Give me 50 Asian customers and they'll order 50 standard pizzas off of our standard menu and there will be virtually no fuss (not sure about here, where I imagine someone will get in a huff about their points card or some crap). They'll get their stuff 8 minutes after they order it, freshly baked, no mistakes. With one employee on the register and one on the makeline, I could probably get those 50 pizzas made and those people served in about 30-40 minutes total (the pizzas bake on a conveyor so total time is less than individual make time for each pizza- 1 pizza takes 8 minutes, but 2 pizzas take 9 minutes)Give me 50 waygook customers and it would take significantly longer. "No we don't have gluten-free crust""No our chicken isn't free-range""No we don't have vegetarian pepperoni""No, we don't have kosher bacon""Can I have you combination pizza, but with white sauce instead of tomato sauce. And no black olives. And can I substitute roasted red pepper for green pepper. And instead of sausage, can I have seasoned herbed chicken breast?""Seasoned herbed chicken breast will be $1 extra""What? Why?"Of course with 50 different things being changed and customized, inevitably you get mistakes. During non-peak times, special requests are pretty easy. When the store is slammed and you have pizzas almost falling out of the oven because you're overworked and understaffed, all that individuality and customization adds another layer of issues and more chances for something to go wrong. And once one thing goes wrong it tends to back everything else up. The system is designed for efficiency and repetition and to be done by relatively unskilled labor. Yet the average customer treats a franchised quick service place as their personal chef.Everything is a trade off. Back home I can get a pizza made just the way I want it. I'm also getting that factored into costs and order time and the odds that my food will arrive messed up. Anyways, the average quick service food customer is an idiot. They believe they should be able to get a large pizza with up to 5 toppings, with wings and breadsticks and a soda for $20, delivered in 30 minutes. The store should also go through intense inspection and follow a list of regulations the size of James Joyce's 'Ulysses'. The employees should all be paid $15/hour with health insurance and who knows what else. The delivery vehicles should all be eco-friendly. And there should be a ton of people staffing the place at all times to ensure efficient service. Wrong...they must won't make it. Why? Because their head office won't allow them....but they can make a combination, and a 1/2 and 1/2....but no simple cheese pizza. At other places, like Pizza School, one cannot get what they want either...and, it can be done on their POS.

When I go to dominoes pizza here in Korea, I ask for a pizza with no mushrooms and green peppers.I've never been told no; and it's never been a problem. :O I've also been during busy times.I know it happens to others, and it would suck when it happens.There is a KT shop in the slightly bigger small town from me, where the 1 lady that works there will absolutely refuse to let me into the shop without a Korean person with me.When my contract finished, and I got told I could go renew it for a large discount, I went a couple times by myself, and tried to show her the message from KT (which was is in Korean), she literally just tried pushing me out the door while saying "opso" repeatedly. Finally managed to get my co-T on a non-busy day to come with me, and it took like 5 minutes, and while she was doing it, she'd keep looking at me, and giving me an angry facial expression haha.
Also, is anyone else getting crazy large google ads in the middle of peoples posts? :O
