Just returned from lunch at The Roasted Pear, a new restaurant in town (Burnsville). We ordered the Thai Chicken pizza. Thin crust, peanut sauce, few chicken bits, 5-cheese blend, baked then topped with bean sprouts, finely shredded carrots and a ittle cilantro.
Does that sound like anything you'd eat? Rob was curious and I was willing. I have a head cold but could taste the heat of the peanut sauce if not much of the flavor. It was the cheese that threw me -- I don't know what I expected but cheese- topped peanut sauce wasn't it. The carrots and sprouts seemed to be there for appearance only. -- -Barb, <www.jamlady.eboard.com> updated 3-8-04. Rec.food.cooking's Preserved Fruit Administrator (I've got the button to prove it!)

I've had Thai chicken pizzas before that had a cheese blend. Not sure on all of the kinds, but Mozarella and smoked gouda were part of it. I personally *like* Thai pizzas. But that's just me.

Too "fusion cuisine" for me. I could see putting these ingredients in a rice or noodle bowl, or even within a rice paper wrapper, but not on top of a pizza crust.

Yep. It's one of my favorite pizzas at California Pizza Kitchen.

I have to say that I've never heard of a Thai Pizza before this, but it sounds god-awful. Heat is a plus for pizza to me, chicken is just fine... but carrots, sprouts, peanut sauce, cilantro? COOKED????? Yuck!
It's pure puke to top off all of that with cheese.

I've never cared much for the foo foo pizzas anyway. What you ate does not sound the least bit appealing to me. Would I try it? Sure. After letting you people talk me into eating head cheese I'll try anything once 😉 The cheese and peanut sauce combo on the pizza has me stumped. Especially a 5 cheese blend.

Sammy's Woodfired Pizza, found mainly in the San Diego County area, serves a Thai Chicken pizza with julienne veggies, cilantro, scallions, peanuts, lime juice, fresh mint and spicy peanut sauce that I find pretty tasty. I don't think there's much, if any, cheese on it, don't think I'd like it if there was...no bean sprouts either.

Maybve they taste better than they sound. It wouldn't be a first.
Yep. It's one of my favorite pizzas at California Pizza Kitchen.
Oh, please don't mention CPK... I tried eating there ONCE. My daughter was in college - I visited and took her and her friends out for a meal. GAG! My pizza was was awful tasting.
That was in Santa Barbara, so it should have been one of the better restaurants in the chain.

No. It wasn't all that great and not all that bad either. Note that it was baked and then topped with sprouts, carrots, and cilantro. -- -Barb, <www.jamlady.eboard.com> updated 3-8-04.

Going on the information I got in another post.... was that stuff added on after the pizza was baked or baked with it?
