no no no, I'm not referring to the CANDY MOUNTAIN CHARLIE CANDY MOUNTAIN video. I'm talking about Rocky's. This pizza place has a bit more history than the other new establishments. See, they used to have an outlet here, at the arcade where the daily scoop is and now they've come full circle, shifting back here from the rail mall.
What's good here? Rocky's Mountain, it's their signature pizza with pepperoni, ham, sausage, egg, chicken, olive, onion, tomato, mushroom, green pepper on it, that's basically everything you can possibly put. I'm really a big fan of pizza's with egg on it, it's like the egg gives it that extra fluffiness to the overall taste.
At Rocky's, the pizzas come in either 12inch or 16 inches. So far every time we've ordered their pizza's we always end up with leftovers. But don't worry! You can ask them to pack it up for you and it still tastes great when you reheat it. I guess a 12 inch one would feed 3 comfortably and a 16 inch feeds about 5 (if you haven't figured it out, I shared the smaller one with another friend and the larger one with 3 others and ended up with left overs on both occasions).
What I really like about Rocky's is the level of service they give you, it's really like a mom and pop pizza place with lots of aunties thrown in for good measure. They will hoover around, take your order, advise you if you are ordering too little (or too much for greedy pigs like us!), top up your water etc and they're generally happy to serve you. The pizzas are decent and give you the feeling that whoever prepared it took pride in preparing them. I don't really know how to describe it but its like a home cooked meal I guess. It's not exactly an epicurean or gastronomical experience, but (and this is why it's here on my blog) you go there and the food comforts you, like a nice soft sofa you sink into at the end of a work day, enveloping your entire body in its warmness. You just relax and forget your troubles for a while and when you leave, that warmness follows you.
