Pizza, Pizza @ Toronto Union Review [The Return!]

                  YES! 3.5 years later and I have returned. I would of done it sooner but COVID happened and I wasn't able to return to do another review to see if anything changed. However I have good news and bad news on this review. First the good news, the pizza wasn't burnt nor cold and was perfect, hot and gooey and really great, no complaints whatsoever with it at all. I was very happy with it. It is most definitely a good changed from 3.5 years ago but you have to remember it was fairly new when I was there 3.5 years ago as the food court at Union Station so it was a new Pizza Pizza, however I am very happy on the change but there is a downpart to it. 

                 The down part was they had no drinks to go with your meal and I wasn't impressed whatsoever and I had to go to the corner store at the York Concourse to get a drink so I am not happy on that whatsoever. I already mentioned it in a feedback email and at this point, I have given up trying, yes they improved but there was that one issue and at this point I have to give it a 8 out of 10 rating cause of the drink situation and at this point. I wanna move on with other reviews but at least I can give a review and it's 80% 8 out of 10 = 80% so it is a positive end to what was a dissastified review from years ago, it was 0 out of 10 from 3.5 years ago. You guys been asking for this review and there you go, that is the end result and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Had A Bad Experience With Pizza Pizza at Toronto, Union Station

                As I said on the blog post this morning, I had a bad experience with Pizza Pizza and usually I have a good experience with Pizza Pizza, nice fresh tasting Pizza but this time in Toronto not so much. This is my fault for wanting a Pizza slice but how the heck am I suppose to know they didn't warm up the slice properly. It was clearly cold as the pineapple and the toppings, the entire slice was cold! Trust me I was cursing the f word under my breath it was f***ing cold. Yes I pulled a Gordon Ramsay on this. Also the other thing that I was not happy with was the fact that it was burned to a crisp on the bottom and trust me I can taste the burnt dough. I thought this is so burnt a golfer can tee off with it. Yes I have learnt some dandy comments from Chef Ramsay, Hells Kitchen, Kitchen Nightmares, Hotel Hell, 24 Hours of Hell and Back. I mean it shouldn't be burnt even warmed up so they must of kept it in too long but I was not one bit impressed at all. 


                  I actually contacted Pizza, Pizza but yet to hear back from them which really I could care if they did as that was the last straw. After this experience, I kind of was turned off by the quality control of the food and already stated I would not be back there in the very near future.  I like Little Caesars Pizza or Domino's, however Dominoes we had a problem with it. There is a couple of places I or my parents or family can go and there is one place here locally that is good but expensive but worth a try. Anyways that is not what this post is about it is about the fact the experience, I just do not know if I would eat at a Pizza Pizza again and I realize this is only at Union that I had this issue and any other store would be different experience. Different store, different  experience!

New Food Court At Union Station, Toronto

             Back on Monday, I got the chance to go into Toronto for the day for my 3rd day off from Chris B On The Web as you know I took some time off from Chris B On The Web as I really did need it and I was pretty stressed out at the time. There is a lot going on here in the studio with keeping up with the podcasts, the website domain trying to get back which mind you nothing has happened yet. Anyways the day consisted of going over to St. Micheal's Cathedral for Noon mass. Also we originally were suppose to have lunch over at Eaton Center which was our original plan but I kind of came up with the idea to go back down to Union Station and eat. My dad had a bagel and for me as I already had bread I had to have Pizza Pizza which was not a great experience and I will be talking about this on the blog later on and trust me I have a lot to say about the experience overall. 


               Before we went to Mass though, we actually took a look at the food court and I wish I took a picture of it honestly but I just didn't think of it as it was out of site out of mind and I just did not really think about it honestly. I was overwhelmed with the way it was setup, I was quite impressed actually. Also the lady at the Chinese food gave us a sample which was Chicken with sweet and sour sauce and it was good. There was also McDonalds (meh), Perogies place as well. There was a Thai place as well, Timmie's (Tim Horton's). I am sure I am forgetting some but it was really nice and I never really knew that the downstairs existed but it could of not been there and dug out but I do not know as the Bay Concourse wasn't there originally from what my dad mentioned back on Monday.  But either way I really did enjoy the new food court and plan on eating there again down the road, well minus the experience I had which like I said I will end up up today at 1 pm EST.
