hello thank you so much for joining me today how you doing especially you Alex Alex 1337 or elite elite for the elite hackers out there who are old enough to know what that means um sent in this video Italian tries Domino’s Pizza for the first time ever pasta grammar go check out their Channel link down below this video has 2 million views four years ago what a great title Italian tries Domino’s Pizza that’s better than if they tried Pizza Hut you know I mean I’m still afraid to hear what they had to say but at least Domino’s Pizza well you know what say what you want about Domino’s Pizza but if you had bought their stock in 2009 few thousand bucks you’d be rich you would be rich which is so strange to me because like Domino’s Pizza was just as popular back then I feel like what why what why did it go up 100 time any anyway it’s got to be the biggest pizza company in the world huh how are you going to critique the biggest pizza company in the world they’re number one I’m super interested to hear what he has to say let’s see oh hold on all right hey what’s wrong I miss Italy what do you miss most about Italy I miss a lot of my pizza do you want to have some pizza no problem today we can of course we can we’ll just order some [Music] dominoes delivery pizza okay do y’all not deliver pizza you know what now I’m starting to question is that like kind of an American idea delivering pizza probably not hi everyone I’m Harper hi I’m Eva Ava is Italian and so I assume that means that Pizza is pretty important for you for me pizza is fundamental is my favorite food and I can have a pizza for breakfast wow Pizza is fundamental it’s beautiful for lunch for dinner well you may change your mind about that after today because today Ava is going to try Domino’s Pizza For the First Time Domino’s is the number one pizza delivery service in America so uh this means that we call dominoes and they bring us pizza no one actually calls dominoes anymore you do it all online you ready to look at the menu and see what looks good to you let’s do so obviously we’re going to let’s do all right I might skip through this just to I want to see her try the pizza you know what I mean if you want to watch their full video click it down in the description below absolutely go watch it um I’m here to react to her trying the piz Pizza what does she think about that we try the pineapple pizza they take my passport and just do this this one doesn’t have any toppings you won’t like it just has cheese it’s the uh Wisconsin six cheese pizza the margarita in Italy we have a pizza we call it quatro it’s four cheeses quatro for so four cheese is good but six cheese is just too much see all right we’ve got one last option in the specialty pizza and I think you might appreciate this one as an Italian cuz it sort of has a Mediterranean flare to it the spinach and feta Pizza you know that’s probably the fanciest one that is probably the fanciest one she might even be fooled like is this really not Italian pizza it tastes just like back [Music] home really wondering did Americans Pioneer the pizza delivery like cuz pizza delivery is its own special thing here in America pizza places were delivering pizza way before Uber Eats or anything you know made it cool they had their own they still do have their own delivery drivers deliver pizza I don’t really know exactly why I guess just the pizza is the perfect thing to deliver for some reason [Music] okay we have our Domino’s Pizza it’s here is AA here there she is I want to run away let’s start with our parmesan uh bread bites how could you not like these no matter where you’re from you’re lying if you say they don’t taste good they might not be good for you they’re probably not as good obviously they’re not as good as you know some of the bread you got back home in Europe but it still tastes good what do you think is that the real deal M they smell horrible it smells like uh like cheesy parmesan no no they don’t smell like parmesan this is Mama Mia let’s try one okay what’s wrong it’s so oily my gu that’s the tasty part Bon poit SP like a sponge what do you think it sponges up all the oil what this garlic garlic but also in your mouth it you keep the the flavor of just of the garlic but it’s like garlic bread isn’t that a classic Italian thing no we don’t have garlic bread in Italy what you’re telling me America can be credited for the invention of garlic bread I’m going wear that with a badge of honor and we don’t use some much garlic as you think well that’s a noo on the uh Parmesan bread bites let’s try the pasta look they now the pasta is going to be garbage they even have a picture of Italy on the box it is a specialty of the campia region of Italy oh [Music] oh come on this isn’t fair now please look to everyone in Italy this is a carbonara this is a Caron what should it look like arur it’s another kind of dish it’s another kind of pasta okay I don’t even know what that is carbonada carbonara let’s see how it looks in Italy it does look pretty good yeah Domino’s pasta is garbage that’s not fair we’re talking about that pizza yeah come on try it try it try it I want St alive just a little bite no this is not a little bite no this is not no this is not my mommy this is real blaspheming to her I was so look try this bite it’s all you have to eat this is not it’s all you have to eat deal what even is that bite look at that man it looks like a pig [Music] foot I never and I I’m a person that can eat any everything but that is not possible I guess i’ strike to but we have now come we have now come to the pizza yes look at that what do you think you’re kidding me what it’s just I was starving I was so happy to have a pizza it looks pretty good I mean okay deliver Pizza in all honesty I don’t know what to think I mean honestly I would absolutely devour that but is that like the best pizza no I would be interested in what she thinks of some like you know like genuine New York pizza or Brooklyn Pizza some Chicago deep dish like I wonder if she would appreciate that at all this is like you know like kind of like it’s it’s fast food pizza basically it’s just a pepperoni but it’s good you got K me this is not the this is not the pizza I’m sorry no no I’m sorry why are you what are you doing do you think that’s not even that bad compared to other places that in Italy you can find this yeah olive oil except that’s not olive oil here but M what what is that it’s probably more garlic seasoning oh let’s uh let’s grab a slice and dig in shall we how does it look disgusting it’s it’s full of oil oh man I’m not going to lie it looks pretty good to me full of oil my hands are full of [Laughter] oil it’s sweet it’s sweet do you make the sauce is sweet this with sugar it’s possible it’s possible there’s sugar in there it’s not a pizza yeah probably in the pasta sauce this is not a pizza at all so she’s not saying it’s bad she’s saying it’s not a pizza I’ll take it it’s not disgusting as the pasta okay if I order a pizza as an Italian I’m expecting a pizza well when you do that I don’t want to to to say always the same thing but this is not for human being in Italy we have a a Sayan we say M that means neither the dogs can eat this so I take it you only f for Americans not for the dogs give Domino’s Pizza a big thumbs down completely well here’s oh man devastating devastating to hear the real question did it satisfy your craving for pizza no I want a pizza I could have answered that unfortunately that’s the only she said it wasn’t even good enough for a dog Pizza I can give you right now this is the only Pizza that you can give to me but it doesn’t mean that this is the only Pizza that I can give to [Music] you I’m interested to see what she whips up how it Compares in terms of like that whatever she just did that cheese wow all right are you serious where’s the cheese that’s actually kind of fascinating this looks absolutely amazing I wish you guys could smell this it really is totally different it’s way fancier you know Pizza over here in America is really considered and thought of as like a fast unhealthy cheap meal that you can feed like you know it’s just it’s something for like a party it’s like you know if you got a bunch of people let’s order some pizzas because it’s cheap it’s fast it’s easy this is like a delicacy which is kind of interesting this because boy does this smell I’m sure it tastes great by the way I’m just kidding about asking where the cheese is I mean I’m not kidding because I didn’t expect it to look like that but I’m kidding because I’m sure it still tastes great good and I have to say a little less garlicky than the doino just a little bit should we have a bite while it’s hot see also because I can wait Bonito bonao and you got the leaves on there that’s amazing that’s a [Music] pizza thanks for watching oh man I would be really interested to try that well

There is also a difference between getting a pizza fresh from the oven in a restaurant and getting it out of a box. This is certainly also a decisive point for an Italian.

All in all, the American way of throwing far too much on everything and the thick, greasy base is not the European way. But for an Italian, it's pure horror

Did you hear the sound, that crisp?
Dominoes being "number 1"… Most popular, but quite poor quality. They sell a lot so that is what establishes them at the top…
I will say that pizza doesn't look bad at all. Dominoes in Ireland is shit compared to that. Ok, the base doesn't look great but it is Dominoes.
i guess her reaction was only for the scope of the video, otherwise it was a lack of respect from her side … it is food , thank for it and eat :). do not forget , first of all , we need food to survive 🙂
New York pizza could compete with a standard italian pizza anytime. And they are at the top level of anything outside Italy (or Italian resturants) in Europe. Pizza lover from northenr Europe.
I am german and I prefer american pizza over italian, I like more dough.
Ryan, just ask Eva to send u a slice… and that you wish to visit Calabria
I only eat the real pizza from Italy, the rest ….brrrr.✌️🇳🇱
11:50 “It’s way fancier”
No Ryan, hear me out, that’s absolutely not a fancy pizza😭
That’s the homemade, spartan pizza that even children in Italy are able to do!
It’s always interesting to see how Americans find Italian “nonna” kind of food fancy when it’s really just food being simple and genuine…
Dominos pizza is fine therefore is full of pizza shops of this company here in Europe as well as other American fast-food Chains .If you want healthy food try something else .
Should be illegal to do any food related videos ( reacting to one included) if you don’t know what carbonara is. Where this guy lived all this time? Under a rock? Well…americans i guess.
Jesus freaking Christ.. you people really need a passport and travel.. in some country.. they deliver your pizza by drone robots..
I am Italian. I was in Florida a couple of times and one of the times I started ordering a lot of food with Uber eats and I ordered plenty of Pizzas in my time there.
Most of them tasted "the American way" which tastes good but it's just different.
But I remember one time out of luck I was able to order in Miami a pizza, that surprised me… it looked and tasted exactly like a pizza would, if I was back in a pizzeria of my hometown in southern Italy, I didn't even write down from which restaurant I ordered it.
You guys have everything in the US if you look hard enough I believe
So glad she decided to make her own pizza. It looked fantastic and wholesome and I bet it tasted gorgeous! Homemade is always best but if I buy a supermarket pizza here in England it would be from Doktor Otker. The so-called Chicago pizzas just look too overloaded. Strange how a German firm makes a really good Italian meal. I also make my own cabonara, sometimes simple, just spaghetti, bits of bacon and egg, sometimes I add mushrooms and a little cheese .
Dominos sucks .. so many better choices lol
Dominoes is a franchise. No one goes to Dominoes if they have a decent Italian restaurant in town.
As an Italian I think this pizza doesn't look that bad, I would eat it
Regarding how sweet she found it… it was likely not (just) the sauce, but the dough. You Americans put too much sugar into everything.
This was hilarious. I hope I never have to cook pasta for an Italian.
Actually the pizza that she made is so so easy to make at home, Like you need only few things and you can make it in about a couple of hours (sounds a lot but you need to let the dough rise), other than that you need tomato sauce, mozzarella, basilico or origano, salt and nothing more
No it was delivered in Roman times .
Also from EU here :
Yes we also order pizza at home 😉
But 95% of the time we enjoy the restaurant and having a fresh pizza from the oven.
Haven been at dominos once i my life and 2 times at Pizza Hut and did not liked it at all.
(And i am not Italian 😀 )
I am Italian, born and raised in Naples, the home of pizza. Many times I happen to see reels on Instagram of American pizzas that seem decidedly more inviting and good than Domino's, but they are still different. They are rich in different ingredients and much larger, I think that 3 or 4 people can eat with just one pizza (here you can eat one pizza each). The Neapolitan Margherita pizza has very few ingredients (tomato sauce, oil, mozzarella and a couple of basil leaves), but of very high quality and it is the simplicity that makes it taste great. Obviously such a large chain could decide to use medium quality ingredients. In addition to being completely different visually, as you can easily search on Google, the much stronger taste resulting from many more ingredients can probably trigger the palate of a person accustomed to simpler flavours. On the other hand, I hope that in the future you will come to Naples and taste one, so you will be able to understand well what I mean.
Seriously, Dominos is just absolute shite man. I feel bad if you think that's a good pizza. I say this as an American who worked at Dominos during college, both delivering and making. The tins of tomato sauce are over salted and over sugared and have the taste of the metal from the can. And that's just the first problem.
She baked a classic pizza Margherita, and its definitely 20 times better than every modern american food-chain pizza ❤
EDIT: Quote: A popular contemporary legend holds that the archetypal pizza Margherita was invented in June 1889, when the Royal Palace of Capodimonte commissioned the Neapolitan pizzaiolo Raffaele Esposito to create a pizza in honor of the visiting Queen Margherita. Of the three different pizzas he created, the Queen strongly preferred a pizza swathed in the colors of the Italian flag—red (tomato), green (basil), and white (mozzarella).
This guy is the biggest America hater on YouTube, you glorify people hating on the United States.
I'm not an expert for american food but after all i heard it is not the quality you want if you are from europe to make it short.
(Ok a good thanksgiving turkey with stuffing is pretty delicious)
Jep, she suffered during this.
(No italians have been hurt, tortured or killed during this production.)
Ring Italian myself I find her annoying, she has a whole channel where she basically reinforce stereotypes and talks about food like a toddler would.
Da Italiano bata vederli e i primi due in casa mia sarebbero finiti nella spazzatura! La pizza potrebbe essere commestibile se ci fosse meno olio meno formaggio meno di tutto quello che è grasso ! Dovete imparare a bilanciare gli ingredienti , soprattutto per la vostra salute. Anche la pasta della pizza così alta ha il problema che rimane cruda all interno, in questo caso non è un problema di sapore perché è buona , ma è un problema per il vostro stomaco perché la farina fetmenta e vi gonfia! Se cucinate, burro formaggio panna olio ecc usateli ma in maniera moderata! Poi si capisce perché negli USA avete tanti problemi di obesità grasso non vuol dire buono !
US americans has no idea of good pizza cause they don't know how cheese has to taste!
American bread taste bad to Europeans. It's too processed and sweet.
Cuisine is about constant changing and invention. Every so called traditional dishes was new and revolutionary in the past. Calling something the best and only is the opposite of what chefs and cooks do. They can make better things or different things.
This is pathetic, like a whiny toddler who dont want to eat anything new. She hates everything before even try it.
We dont know what they orderer. That is carbonara with penne.
Just think about this: Italian eating pizza (or any italianlike food) in america almost vomit, when an american eat everything in Italia he come back in the USA completely devastated by the consideration he always ate the wrong way.
Alot of haters in here haha but its true im from NJ if i get food in some random place in US im not expecting much at all , we are spoiled in the NJ/NYC area
Naples Pizza !!! Here is real pizza !!! at nord italy is more rare find good pizza paker!!!
In other news: American taste palate is stuck at toddler level.
Dude, for what i saw, New York style pizza may be decent (or at least eadible), but Chicago "Deep dish", oh boy, you can't call that pizza, that's just a torta salata with a fuck ton of tomato sauce and cheese, LOL.
However i get it, for an american that only had domino's or similar and never tried the real deal, may be really tasty, untill you try it… and you will never come back!
P.S.
I was a delivery's Pizza man at my 15 years old (In Italy), and now i'm 38, so yeah, we had that as well for a while too!
in uk dominos is awful. Fireaway pizza way better
