Most of last week, I was planning on going to Pizza Capers for dinner on Friday night. I like Pizza Capers because it offers the convenience of Pizza Hut or Domino's except that the pizzas are actually good and I don't mind paying extra for them. On Thursday however, I happened to be walking down Boundary Street and discovered that the old Pizza Capers is now a Donini's Pizza. I picked up a menu and examined it. Many of the pizzas looked to be much the same as those that Pizza Capers used to offer, but there were some new and interesting additions to the menu including a bacon and egg pizza. I love bacon and egg pizzas and wish that more pizza places would offer them. However on this occasion I passed up on the opportunity to have a bacon and egg pizza in favour of a more traditional pepperoni pizza with anchovies. Not much can be said about this pizza. It was a standard, albeit quality offering. The pepperoni was tasty and plentiful. The sauce was particularly "tomato-y", but not overly so. The cheese was tasty and served the purpose of binding the dish together in such a manner than when I bit into a slice not all of the toppings came off at once. The anchovies were good as usual but there was barely one anchovy per slice. However I was expecting this. Overall this pizza was virtually indistinguishable from what one would get from Pizza Capers, but in this instance this was a good thing. I am likely to sample Donini's other offerings in the future.
