So I was driving down the street the other day and I noticed a pizza delivery car in someone’s driveway. The car caught my eye because I have been on the lookout for a great pizza place to feature in this blog. The sign on the car is what convinced me to give this pizza place a try, the sign read, “Garlic Jim’s Pizza.” Any restaurant with the word Garlic in the title is going to get my business (at least once) simply because I have been known to eat roasted garlic cloves by the fork-full.
I decided to check out their website and see what they had to offer….and there it was, the Spinach Artichoke Pizza. This was a no brainer, I placed my order and waited patiently for the delivery guy.
This pizza was everything I had hoped for: large-falling-off-the-pizza pieces of artichoke, spinach peeking out of gooey layers of cheese, and bite size pieces of roasted garlic. It was like the bad-breath angels parted the clouds and starting singing right there in my living room. I had to get out a fork and knife to handle these generous toppings. Then, I got my next pleasant surprise of the evening…the perfect crust. Now, sure, “perfect” is obviously subjective, and I know there are lots of different versions of what may be considered perfect crust. Apparently Garlic Jim and I had the same opinion on this matter. The crust was crisp on the outside and soft and fluffy in the middle. It was also seasoned just enough to distract me from the fact that I was just stuffing tons of carbs into my mouth, but not so much that I had to reach for my water after every bite. And to literally top it all off, there was a nice hint of cheese baked onto the outside of the crust (cue angels singing).
So, do I recommend giving Garlic Jim’s a whirl? Yes. Should all of you garlic lovers out there rejoice and order the Spinach Artichoke Pizza? Definitely.
