snapshot/pizza: i still strongly recommend CHICAGO PIZZA FACTORY



Pizza isn't the first thing that comes to mind when you think Taipei, but finding good pizza is pretty important to those of us who live here. Yesterday Taipei had such beautiful sunny weather that we had a picnic at DaAn park and my friend brought a couple of boxes of from Chicago Pizza Factory, which I haven't had in probably over a year (and last wrote about in 2009)  One slice of the combo pizza and it kickstarted my appreciation for their delicious pizza- the pliable chewy yet crispy crust, the plentiful toppings and the proportion of sauce to cheese to toppings to crust. Note to Chicago Pizza Factory fans, they are moving to a new location in March of this year-- hope they will let us know where.

Then I ended up making a collage of all the pizzas I instagrammed and ate and made a new tag (#taipeipizza)...


And I know I have lots more places I've yet to try. Where is your favorite pizza in Taipei? Check out all my past pizza reviews here!

PS. OMG! It's 2015! SO weird. I just looked at the date on blogger and thought it was wrong for a brief moment when it said 1/5/15.

I like the truffle pizza in Antico Forno in Rui An Street, just beside The Diner. The restau's a hidden gem in that alley.

I one million percent agree. For this style of pizza its one of the best in Taipei. I also really like Amore Pizza, though we usually go here more often.

On a side note, if you live in Taizhong/Tiachung Slice and Dice Monster is really some of my favorite "could it every day" pizza.

Their new location is at No. 379, Fuxing South Road, Sec. 2! Call them at the same phone number to verify, just to be sure though! 2707-2121

Highly recommend you to try out the pizza at MaryJane's near Taida.

Another good pizza place is unexpectedly the Azie Cafe at the Regent Hotel lobby.
