Dominos went away from Italy in 2022 after they couldn't compete with the prices of the many (many many many) local restaurant who offered better quality products for lower prices

We recently went to Italy. Went to a local restaurant, three kids and us two adults. The kids wanted some specific pizza each, but they also offered a family Margherita for 14 bucks, so we ordered this together with the kids' pizza, assuming us two parents could eat that and maybe some leftovers.

That fucker was huge. I think 50 cm diameter? The family pizza alone probably would have fed all of us, the regular ones weren't small either. With prices being what they are, I'm sometimes happy if I can eat properly for 14 bucks in a restaurant. A meal for two for that price would be a good deal. Taking three kids to a restaurant for that price was a damn steal.

The next day the leftovers alone were enough for lunch and supper. The day after that we went back to the same place.

Lmao yeah the "family" size usually is for 4/6 people and is often referred as "pizza al metro" which means "pizza by meter" (as in a literal meter or 2 of pizza) and is usually bought for parties

Rules (2024-08-30)

  1. This is an English-language community. Comments should be in English. Posts can link to non-English news sources when providing a full-text translation in the post description. Automated translations are fine, as long as they don't overly distort the content.
  2. No links to misinformation or commercial advertising. When you post outdated/historic articles, add the year of publication to the post title. Infographics must include a source and a year of creation; if possible, also provide a link to the source.
  3. Be kind to each other, and argue in good faith. Don't post direct insults nor disrespectful and condescending comments. Don't troll nor incite hatred. Don't look for novel argumentation strategies at Wikipedia's List of fallacies.
  4. No bigotry, sexism, racism, antisemitism, dehumanization of minorities, or glorification of National Socialism.
  5. Be the signal, not the noise: Strive to post insightful comments. Add "/s" when you're being sarcastic (and don't use it to break rule no. 3).
  6. If you link to paywalled information, please provide also a link to a freely available archived version. Alternatively, try to find a different source.
  7. Light-hearted content, memes, and posts about your European everyday belong in !yurop@lemm.ee. (They're cool, you should subscribe there too!)
  8. Don't evade bans. If we notice ban evasion, that will result in a permanent ban for all the accounts we can associate with you.
  9. No posts linking to speculative reporting about ongoing events with unclear backgrounds. Please wait at least 12 hours. (E.g., do not post breathless reporting on an ongoing terror attack.)

(This list may get expanded when necessary.)

We will use some leeway to decide whether to remove a comment.

If need be, there are also bans: 3 days for lighter offenses, 14 days for bigger offenses, and permanent bans for people who don't show any willingness to participate productively. If we think the ban reason is obvious, we may not specifically write to you.

If you want to protest a removal or ban, feel free to write privately to the mods: @federalreverse@feddit.org, @poVoq@slrpnk.net, or @anzo@programming.dev.
