We ordered in and did a blind taste-test of seven popular pizza chains in South Africa.
South Africans love pizza. While many opt for burgers or fried chicken to get their fast-food kick, with over 1,200 takeaway chains and franchises across the country, pizza outlets remain one of the top choices for consumers, no matter which way you slice it.
Roman’s Pizza has grown significantly in the country boasting over 250 stores, while Pizza Perfect, part of the Eclectic Brands group has well over 100 stores. When deciding which type of pizza to taste-test, it boiled down to three options: the standard Margherita, something meaty with Pepperoni, or mixing it up a bit with the Hawaiian.
As with previous tests, the tasting was done blind to curb any personal biases. Our tasters had no idea which brand they were eating and scored each numbered pizza on a scale of one to ten. Taste is subjective, and as the scores show, opinions on pizza can differ greatly. All pizzas were procured from local chains. The rankings are not exhaustive or comprehensive, as there are many pizza places around the country, each giving its own unique spin on the classics.
