Here's a fun fact-Whole Slice is the brainchild of the Evergreen owners. Most people in Karachi who are into healthy eating know about Evergreen. Just like their Evergreen line, the owners created Whole Slice with the claim of making it the smart way of eating pizza, without compromising on quality. No surprise there, considering I loved the sandwiches, but didn't feel the Rs. 150 delivery charge justified the sandwich I tried (Blog here). Fun fact, I have to pay Rs. 100 delivery charges for Whole Slice as well. Is it worth the price? Read on to find out!
One evening I was craving a pizza, but wanted to try something new. Tapping into good ol' Google, I found Whole Slice, an app I simply needed to download and order my pizza through. Taking a risk since I wasn't too hangry, I went ahead and downloaded it. The app itself is easy to navigate, and has ten choices to take your pick from, including a 'Build Your Own' option, which is awesome for the particular pizza eater.
Since this was something new, kind of like Make Your Own Burger (MYOB) which opened and sadly closed a couple of years ago in Karachi, I customized my pizza with a whole wheat base, hot sauce, steak, mushrooms, onion and jalapenos. Once I filled in the details required, I placed my order and found it would take an hour for the pizza to be delivered. There were also delivery charges of Rs. 100 applied, which wasn't really a problem. I also got a notice that since I'm a first timer, I might get a call for directions. Ugh, fine.
To my pleasant surprise, my pizza arrived in forty minutes, freshly made, extremely hot and no call! Super efficient delivery service. I was probably more happy about not getting a call asking for directions than I was about the pizza itself. Accompanied with it was a small tub of the Whole Slice dipping sauce and red chili flakes.
Now, when I got the pizza, I was expecting one large slice because you know, Whole Slice is the name of the business, Instead of the 14th Street style pizza, I received a more traditional pizza pie because hello, who doesn't love a pizza pie rather than just one large slice? The pizza itself was absolute love. There was no smell from the steak, which was tender, flavorful morsels of meat, the mushrooms weren't of the canned variety (Hallelujah), and the toppings were generous and I got a little bit of everything in each bite. The base of the pizza pie wasn't oily, the sauce wasn't too hot, but definitely had a zing to it, and the dipping sauce was a butter, lemony, garlicky concoction that went perfectly with the pizza. My only complaint is the sauce isn't enough for the entire pizza.
Since then, I have tried the Pepperoni, Chicken Fajita and given the build your own option another go. Each and every time the pizzas are absolutely scrumptious with their own flavor profile, and delivery has never been late. Also, I get to eat pizza for breakfast, lunch and sometimes dinner the next day too!
So is the Rs. 100 for Whole Slice delivery worth it? Heck yaassssssss!
