That's right. The biggest difference between chains like Numero Uno
and Buddy's (Detriot area - the BEST pizza I have ever had, ever!)
is that everything is prepared on the spot. The chain pizza places,
especally domino's, prepare everthing regionally, and ship it to
the local franchises. This insures a homogenious product, but one
with no character.

UGHH!

I'm a transferred Chicagoan and I will never understand this sentiment!
The crust tastes like Bisquick and the grease just lays on the top!
Give me Pizzeria Uno or Give me death!!

I don't know about that. Maybe Domino's does but I worked
for a Little Sleazers :-) (Ceasers) and they make their own sauce
and dough etc. I think Hungry Howies does also. I'm not saying their's
is the best pizza (the best I've ever had is Federici's in Freehold
NJ :-) ) but there stuff is definitely not made at some regional
factory and shipped out.

I've tried to track this down, and I believe they are NOT related. I had a
wonderful garlic pizza at a Numero Uno not far from Los Angeles -- not a white
pizza, but a regular, reddish pizza with a variety of ingredients, one of which
was grated garlic. An outstanding pizza. It's almost enough to make me want
to go back to Southern California.

Oops... another regional slam. And by a New Yorker, against California, too.
Maybe there's something to that...
