I can't imagine why you're calling that thing pizza. Pizza requires special ovens hotter than ordinary ovens can handle. You cannot, repeat cannot, make pizza without a special pizza oven. For the rest of it, pizza is a convenience food. You buy one so you don't have to cook. If it also tastes good that's nice, but not the most important thing. Why on earth you would order something called pizza at a regular restaurant I can't imagine. Well, if it was an Italian restaurant, maybe. There used to be an old Italian guy here in Nakon Sawan who, I was told, made great pizza, but I think he's passed on.

A valid point,Pizza originated as a bit of flat bread with a few things thrown on top,as did Pide,since then it has evolved,but you do need a really hot oven,a bit like most flat breads,take for instance the naan,cooked at very high temps.

Have to say Hua Hin has some decent pizza...2 owned by Italians and one by a Thai, that I have tried...my favourite is Roma down the alley opposite El Murphies pub. Have taken a few people there and all have gone back. Nice thin crust. The Italian pizza place half way up 94 is ok and so is Pizza by Yani next to Villa Market. There are probably another 10 Italian joints I have not tried. Hua Hin is blessed with a good range of quality Thai and International food for such a small place. Seen a steady improvement over the last 6 years.

I thought Pizza was an American invention? Italian Americans in New York.

Italian restaurant in Bangkok's Sukhumvit Soi 31 is excellent. And as mentioned above Pala under Asoke BTS is also good. I met the owner (Italian) and he was telling me about his trips around Italy to find the perfect Pizza recipe.

I also really like Thai food - but sometimes only pizza hits the spot.

Nooooo! Disaster!

Try Mama Dolores on Yen Akat Rd. in Bangkok. Good mediterranean food plus great Pizzas

Wrong first pizza recipe was recently found in Italy,not sure of the date,the Yanks founded deep pan,i think,in Chicago.

Dominos have had a store in Pattaya for a while.

Not tried it...learnt to make my own in the way I like many years ago. Easy!

I rarely buy pizza out anymore but would only consider it at a place that specialises in it. Just like I never buy an English breakfast at a thai restaurant. Or overpriced Thai food at an English restaurant.

Yeah, me too. I keep a couple of pre made pizza crusts in the freezer for emergencies but if I have the time and inclination I make everything from scratch; pizza dough and all my favorite toppings. Gotta have a hot, hot oven though.

Try Pizzahouse in Dan Chang Suphanburi provins!!!

They are fantastic!!!!

Yes,it was first a flat bread,with things placed on it,that evolved into what we know today,like most of life food is not static.

Does she do noodles too,one would think some of our posters would in a state of high excitment if that where the case.

I would say two things about this:

1. Most foreigners can't make good Thai food, outside of people like a friend of mine who an absolute fanatic. He has never been to Thailand, but fell in love with it in his teens. He frequented Thai restaurants and markets in the US, has a lot of Thai friends, and eventually got to cooking it for himself. He still tells me the vast majority of what he eats, in the middle of the US, is Thai food he cooks at home (plus nights out at his favorite Thai restaurants).

Most people in the US, though, would have a very difficult time getting it right.

2. Pizza Company does not sell pizza. Full stop. Pizza Hut and Domino's are a sort of edible version of it. That said, I have had some great pizzas in BKK, ChiangMai, and Rayong (I would imagine Phuket and Pattaya also have some good spots). Look around and find a foreigner or a keen Thai and you'll find what you are looking for.

By the way....the guy who said the US has no good pizza either didn't go or spent his entire time there in a McDonald's or something.

Best Pizza in taste an price you will found near ABAC Bangna , Owner and chief Pizzaiolo is Thai.

Wiwinos , Real Italian Pizza in C-Canal Building.

We stop there allwas on the way to Bangkok.

Just straying off topic a touch ,i just got a like from "family on the move",i thought that was a wonderful handle,so please ,family on the move join in and let's have your thoughts on pizza,so far this thread has been great{no crustiness at all- pardon the pun],and good luck to you family on the move,it's sounds like some wonderful hippy thing from the 1970's,please excuse my rabid romantisicm,but whatever i do hope you find good pizza,i make my own and they are sought after in Kok Prong,especially by the one eyed ,man with a withered leg that lives close by,he swears that they cure his lao khao hangovers,well as always,there's things i think i know about pizza,then there's things,i know i don't know about pizza,and there's also things i don't know i don't know about pizza,but it all add's up to a pizzafull life.

Have had very good and very bad pizza in Thailand. That said, very good has always been in a restaurant that specializes in Italian food/pizza and owned by a foreigner. Best pizza, by a country mile, that I have ever had was made by a Lebanese guy in my home country of Canada. So where there is a will there is a way.

Thais can't make pizza because Thais can't make cheese.

If that is all you have to worry about in life, you are doing pretty well.

Stop eating pizza... it is bad for you.

It's not only un-eatable, at 1112, the pizza company, the prices are robbery, had to wait half an hour for a take away Hawaiian for 449 Baht!

Never again, even the kids didn't eat it!

Hey at least they tried!! .....

See what sort of pad thai you get in Tony Pepperoni's back home and see how that turns out.

By and large, I think Thais do western food quite well.

My (Thai) wife makes excellent pizza - anchovy, blue cheese, pepperoni, whatever, with better crust than Pizza Hut or Pizza Company.

The crust is very important.

Take a slice of Thai white bread (preferably the crust), spread some cheap sweet tomato ketchup on it, add some Isaan sausage and a few slices of small Thai tomatos, salad cream thickened with flour (aka cheese) and enough chillis so you can't taste anything, and bung it in the oven for a few minutes.

A perfect pizza..... NOT!

Had a pepperoni pizza the other night at New York Pizza in Chiang Mai - thick crust, but they do thin. 20 inches...so lunch was sorted the next day...Freashly made base, hand thrown, generous cheese and good toppings. Location is in between Hang Dong Rd and Canal Rd at Big C turn.

Probably the best pizza I have had in Chiang Mai, although the Dukes are pretty decent.

Pizza company is OK but I do miss Carbone's from back home.

The best pizza I've had in Thailand was at a café in Korat

The place was run by a Thai woman and her Swiss husband ( now departed )

Its been around since the Vietnam war

The shop has heaps of memorabilia from the late 60's

The next best made by my wife , she learnt from an Italian who had a place near Hua Hin

That does...in fact...look like a beautiful New York Pizza.

I was a delivery boy for three, family owned pizza shops...and this is how they are supposed to look.

Also delivered for Dominos..(good cheese...but that's it) Dominos is not, in my opinion, the best.

I can't agree with this statement.

Pizza Company in Thailand is making some excellent pizza!

You need to know which one to order.

My favorite is Hawaiian...

Best pizza Ive had in Thailand is at Dukes in Chiangmai - their calzone is amazing
