Comments on: Panago http://imonlyhereforthefood.com/2009/11/panago/ Random thoughts of restaurants and food in Vancouver, BC!

So, Sherman, there it goes, you must go now! But, back to Panago, again, it has its own merits but there are no particular redeeming quality, specially considering that, if I go for pizza, I will certainly go for broke so veggie option isn't really an option, hehehehe.

One thing they do have going for them is a good selection of vegetarian pizzas, plus a veggie pepperoni option which most places don't offer. Since I can handle greasy, meaty thin crust pies, 2001 Flavours completely destroys most other downtown pizza joints for a quick lunch. During lunch hours, their turnover is pretty quick, so slices generally tend to not sit in the window for more than a few minutes. Panago is usually pretty decent delivery pizza.

That's how long it's been since I had one of their pizzas. My family ordered in from there frequently for a few months and then got sick of it! Never had one since... :D I didn’t even know that Panagopoulos became Panago! That’s how long it’s been since I had one of their pizzas.

Regardless, no hurry to come back, considering I am aware of "better" options... Raidar, it is also possible they mixed pizzas for me instead!

I though in the third picture you actually had them make a personal pizza with two different combos! I have friends that rave about their BBQ Chicken pizza. Topping distribution gone awry.

Gatronomydomine, unfortunately (?), I am not aware of its previous name. Probably they did that just before I moved here? Brave? Or foolish? :D rainbowgirl, welcome! I can assure you it wasn't condensation: I opened the box less than three minutes after it was given to me while I was still in the shop. As a result, it did not have to go through the "cold" outside, which would have hastened that effect. But, at the end of the day, I still think there are better options...
