Reese and Chris
Reese and Chris
A few days ago I met up with Reese Pepper and her boyfriend Chris for dinner. Reese and I knew each other in middle and high school in Dallas, and we reconnected once we both ended up in Austin. She’s getting her Ph.D. in nutrition, so if she loves Homeslice, I’ll assume that she condones my “pizza is actually healthy” philosophy. My logic is bulletproof.
Reese is a huge Homeslice fan, and loves broccoli and ricotta on her pizzas. I’m not a huge fan of either, but we tried her broccoli and it tasted pretty good, albeit a little too crunchy for my taste. We got the onions for the first time in forever. They weren’t as stringy as I remember, I enjoyed them more than usual.
On the way out, I saw eating champ Chris Floyd dining with friends. We exchanged pleasantries. It’s really too bad that I won’t be able to watch him during his title defense at the pizza eating contest, since I’ll be busy out front with my own repeat attempt.
The wait on this particular Monday night was 35 minutes, significantly more than the quoted wait time on Friday night. Weird.
