Chow / Homo Pizza Fusion Is Cruising for Gays

Posted by Dominic Holden on Fri, Jan 9, 2009 at 6:23 PM

Hungry, hungry homos! Pizza Fusion wants to be your new home slice. If you’re braving the “Great Ricin Threat of 2009” tonight, and by that I mean getting hammered on the hill in the name of showing bio-terorism you’re not afraid of white powders, then Pizza Fusion will give you a free slice of pizza just for showing up. They’re even staying open late—till 1:00 a.m.—just to put pie in your gob. Here’s how it works: Go in there and say you’re there on the pub crawl. And presto (and maybe pesto), they give you a piece of pizza. They haven’t said what sort of pizza you get. Veggie pizza? Meat pizza? Ricin delight?

Pizza Fusion—which two people rave about and you can gush over or rag on here—is at 1412 12th Avenue, between Pike Street and East Madison Street.

It's a cunning trap!!

i suppose it would be ironic if pizza fusion was the ricin source. or even more ironic if some other store sold poison - like poison that comes in sticks people set on fire, or poison that comes as trans fats. but if i go out tonight and get ricin-ed, i hope it's at least brown ricin-ed because it's more nutritious that way.

No doubt they would serve mostly "pizza blanco" .. very feh.

You seem to believe a ricin threat is a lark. Did the Stranger plant this whole ricin story? Maybe this whole ricin thing was dreamt up by the Stranger.

Joseph, shut up and eat your pizza. I'm calling the doctor about your meds on Monday.

As for this business and their generosity, I am not crawling tonight but I plan to make a point of eating there this month to put money in their register.

Just like I ate at Quinn's earlier this week due to some sanctimonious sock puppet's soliloquizing in a previous thread.

Joseph, think of Londoners soldiering on during the Blitz, or after their Tube bombings in 2005, or after their Great Smog of 1952, and cheer up at least for tonight!

Do you have to prove you're gay?

Posted by Patti on January 9, 2009 at 6:57 PM

Patti, you can be anything you like--and even change your mind later--just say you're on the pub crawl and they'll give you a hot slice.

Dominic, that's vulgar. Have some grace when speaking to women

Posted by AJ on January 9, 2009 at 7:31 PM

AJ, I have grace when speaking to everybody. Grace is my middle name. No, really, it is.

Posted by Dominic Holden on January 9, 2009 at 7:38 PM

So your idea of greeting a woman is with a "hot slice"? Hm, actually, I suppose that could be rather attractive in some circles

Posted by AJ on January 9, 2009 at 7:48 PM

I've been to Pizza Fusion. It's pretty solid. Good stuff. And they have vegan wine.

Grace really is Dominic's middle name. Word.

I know you're being ironic, but, I have to point out again that the little letter writer made his threats for a Saturday....

"If you’re braving the “Great Ricin Threat of 2009” tonight"

Will the Pizza have the Ricin served on it too on Saturday per the letters? I mean it's great to have a drink or pizza on Friday but why not have both with a splash of Ricin on Saturday as per the letters?

Dunno about the pizza, but the brownie was delish, and it is the most eco-friendly restaurant in the universe (read all about it in the restroom).

Could someone please clean up the crap that's collecting in this comments thread? Much obliged!
