On a recent business trip I decided to order pizza instead of head out for dinner. I was sorely disappointed when I found out the local Papa John's stores did not deliver to my hotel (out of the chain pizza joints Papa John's has been a longtime favorite). So, not to be disuaded by the lack of deliverability, I checked out Dominos. I hadn't had Dominos in forever but at this juncture, pizza is pizza.
I was pleasantly surprised by all the features Dominos offered - several different dough styles (I tried the Brooklyn), sauce options and of course, plenty of topping options. But I think the coolest feature was the timeline that shows the progress of your pizza - the prep, the cooking and when it leaves the store. At each stage a voice alerts you to the newest stage of your pizza. At first I thought this was a little silly and unnecessary (kind of like the backup cam in the car I bought last year - now I love it). However, have you ever ordered pizza (or Chinese for that matter) and wondered, after what seems like the 45 min delivery they promised, "what has happened to my pizza"? I know I'm not the only person who has either had a way too long of a wait for their food (two hours for Chinese once) or called the store to check on the order and they simply just didn't have a record of your order.
It's amazing how the little things matter and because of this little thing, I may just order from Dominos again.
As for the whole raw diet departure this pizza brought me, that's another story for another day.
