What do you think? I think I could make a million bucks that way!
No, seriously—ow! Really! I was just—ow ow! Stop hitting!
Cold pizza is good, but only if it’s properly prepared. You can’t just willy-nilly slap a cooked pizza into the fridge and pull it out an hour later and expect it to be any good. It’s got to cool at room temperature, in the box, for at least 12 hours. 24 hours is even better. Now, that’s good eatin’! And of course, to get decent cold pizza, you have to start with excellent hot pizza. In the pizza world, crap begets crap.
When can I make a reservation? I actually eat very little of any pizza I buy when it’s fresh and hot. Leftover, the next day, or even the day after, it is heaven on a plate. Gone are the days of enjoying a big glass of milk with a coupla’ slices of cold pizza. Sic transit gloria mundi
Alas, your local health inspector might get a little upset if you did this in Cecil’s House of Cold Pie[sup]TM[/sup]
I’ve wanted to open a cold pizza restaurant for yrs. I would be first in line at yours!
There’s a place here that has something they call “Cold cheese pizza”.
They put a slice in the oven until its really hot then sprinkle thick shredded mozzarella over it. Eat it as it melts. yum.
You have to start small. First, test market your idea with a small stand in a college town during finals week. It that works out, expand your operation to include the 2AM-1PM Saturday and Sunday crowds. Sucessfully done, you may not need much more than that sort of clientel.
Cold Pizza. It’s not just for breakfast any more.
There’s actually a place quite close to my house that sells cold pizza. But not in the way you think.
The idea is, you swing by, pick up the pie of you choice, fresh pastas, frozen pasta sauce, whatever, and bring it home. The pizza is uncooked, but fresh made. When it’s nearly dinner time, it’ll bake up right on its included tray in about 17 minutes.
The quality of this pizza is far superior to any delivery place in my neighborhood, including nationwide chains. It’s pretty close to some of the great pizza places I used to go to in Pittsburgh, though not quite as good as when I was stationed in Sicily in the Navy.
The place is always busy. Cold pizza is a good seller, I guess.
Combine that with a cold Chinese food buffet and you got a winner.
Yes, that’s good and all, but the key to cold pizza is eating it while wearing pajamas. Could I wear my jammies to your restaurant?
I beg to differ. The key to cold pizza is to be eating it when your husband thinks that he’s getting the leftovers. And since he doesn’t hear you heating it, he never clues in that you’re eating it. Mwahahaaa!
Who reheats cold pizza? Heathens!
Yes, I also LOVE cold pizza. Pure delicious goodness!
I can make no excuses for him. I can only say that he’s from Kentucky and, well, hope that it’s self-explanatory.
Maybe the wait staff could have pajama uniforms.
Hmm, now that I think about it, we could also serve other breakfast foods, like Dregs Of The Box Of Cold Cereal (you know, those crushed powdery bits) with Half-n-Half. Or maybe a nice selection of Toast on the Heel of the Bread.
We could have seasonal food, like during the holiday season we’d serve Cold Slabs of Roast Turkey Onna Sandwich.
Don’t forget the cold fried chicken.
Mmmm… cold rigotoni. Now that I think of it, mmmmm cold meatloaf.
Awesome resturant right there!
We have the same “come in order a pizza we’ll make it but not cook it and you can take it home and bake it yourself later does that sound like a good arrangement? good because we don’t want to bake it” store here.
I would love it personally if you’d make velveeta mac and cheese and sell it cold too.
Nothin’ finer than CLOP* for breakfast. It goes with everything, even leftover flat beer. Now that’s the Breakfast of Champions.
