Shared from this website (and this isn't even a "real Italian Pizzeria in Italy", they're in Rochester, NY): https://www.salvatores.com/blog/what-is-a-traditional-italian-pizza You may be surprised to find that small discs of thinly sliced pepperoni aren’t on the menu at an authentic Italian pizzeria. Instead, a generous portion of prosciutto, large chunks of mozzarella, a variety of hand-picked herbs and greens such as rosemary, basil, arugula, and capers. Eggplant, garlic, and green peppers are also popular Italian choices for pizza toppings. These new offerings from Carnival look delicious to me. But I like Hawaiian pizza, or adding jalapenos, so what do I know? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all the fuss over on rcl when pax were asked about paying for pizza, and pizza gate, I had to laugh to see carnival offering pizza for a price. I just ordered the free pizza, but did see these 2 were offered. No one is forcing people to buy them. Dont see why the fuss over on rcl and resistance. The free pizza was still awesome. Choice is good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if Carnival added pineapple it would be the trifecta of yumminess!!🍍👍😁 Prosciutto on a Margarita pizza with Burrata instead of Mozz. Yum!!! 14 hours ago, stobe1 said: Take the bbq off the korean steak and take the teriyaki off the chicken then combine them to make a bbq chicken pizza. Throw on some red onions then we will be talkin'! I love BBQ chicken pizza with pineapple. No red onions for me, but I will take a few green peppers. Hawaiian pizza holds another place in my stomach. 😀 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare carohs Posted February 21 #31 Share Posted February 21 While I would try either, I won't pay extra for food on a ship, especially pizza. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I like Hawaiian pizza, or adding jalapenos, so what do I know? Of course I am referring to American pizza which is what the majority of Americans are familiar with. I had an "authentic" Italian pizza once made by an Italian neighbor. It was more like flat bread with olive oil, garlic and some kind of green. I think it might have had a shaving or two of some kind of hard cheese. It was delicious, but not something I would call a pizza. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steakhouse selections are still available for an upcharge, and have been for years. Sadly my most recent Carnival cruise was one of the last on the Magic before the new menus debuted. The food was really not good on that cruise. I am looking forward to cruising again now that the new menus are fleetwide. But nothing booked at this time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare LaRue1975 Posted February 22 #41 Share Posted February 22 Thanks for the heads up. On the Panorama now and had no idea this was an option, just checked the Hub app and it is. I am definitely going to order the teriyaki pizza tomorrow, we always order delivery for pizza anyway so the cost is the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In New Haven they call it apizza pronounced ah beetz. Mozzarella is called mutz and pizza is is thin crust some would aay burned but it is charred. Peppe's white clam (not my fav) has been listed as best pizza 18 out of the last 20 years. Check out the documentary I loated above Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either the bomb or my go to, all muzz, half pepperoni and half sausage (sometimes get onion in place of pepperoni). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cacruisin Posted February 22 #50 Share Posted February 22 I always feel like I notice regional differences when it comes to food on the ship. I am born and raised in SoCal so pineapples and weird toppings on my pizza are the norm and I never thought it odd when I saw this notice. I also notice that people from SoCal where sushi and Mexican food are abundant (and excellent) are not as favorable to the ships Sushi/Mexican food as those from regions where they do not have as many options where they live. Same goes for BBQ, those from the south where they have tons of excellent BBQ are more critical of the BBQ on the ship vs. areas where BBQ is not as good etc. There is definitely no right or wrong just matter of preference. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
