DC is awash in local pizza chains that are quite good. Manny and Olga's will deliver until dawn. Bestolli's greek pizza was inspired by Athena herself to be the Platonic ideal of crisis comfort food. The pentagon has more nearby pizzerias than tanks, and that's not including the recent surge of fancy artisan pizza.
Why on earth would you order Domino's?
Even today, the immediate vicinity of the Capitol and office buildings is kinda weak on food. There's a nice set of restaurants on Pennsylvania Avenue, but the food trucks are all over at L'Enfant, and the real mass of restaurants require a trip to Penn Quarter/the-area-formerly-Chinatown-but-now-all-chains.
I do, however, highly recommend We The Pizza a few blocks away. Silly name, but really fantastic fancy-artisan-pizza by noted local chef Spike Mendelsohn.
It’s not a renaissance if there was nothing there of any quality before. For a rebirth there men’ needs to have been a birth.
Of course, the quality is as low as the price, but some people aren't sensitive to pizza quality.
Yes, there are better. But quantity and JIT delivery are virtues of their own.
Bravo, someone's finally asking the right questions around here.
To play devil's advocate, perhaps GP's rationale had to do with the fact that when you freeze cardboard, it still tastes like cardboard when thawed. There's very little loss there.
... or maybe the article was sponsored by Domino's, who knows :)
He probably also has accounts set up for various departments, whereas a small shop would probably just tell an office to use a corporate card, and have more difficulty tracking the order volume.
Those in the know hit up Wiseguy.
