Okay, let’s talk about the two places you absolutely need to know about if you live anywhere near a decent zip code. I’m talking about Flying Pizza and the Taste Of India menu.
Yes, I know. It sounds like a weird food crossover from a fever dream. But trust me, these are two heavy hitters in the takeout game, and I need to rant about them a little.
The Magnificent Flying Pizza
First up: Flying Pizza. The name alone makes you smile, right? Does it actually fly to your door? No. But it should, given how good it is.
Must Read
This isn’t your basic, soggy, cardboard slice. No, no. We’re talking crusts that have actual personality. They have this chewy, charred edge that feels like it was kissed by a wood-fired oven, even if it came from a regular one.
My go-to? The “Mama Mia” (or whatever their spicy special is called). That sauce has a kick to it. I’m not saying it will clear your sinuses, but it definitely wakes them up for the party.
You want to know the real secret? Their cheese pull. It’s cinematic. You lift a slice, and it stretches for an awkwardly long time. It’s like a magic trick, except the reward is dinner.
Honestly, if you haven’t tried their white pizza, you’re living a half-life. It’s creamy, garlicky, and it doesn’t need red sauce to prove itself. It’s a confident pizza.
Suddenly, Curry
Now, let me switch gears completely. Just across the street (or on the same delivery app) sits Taste Of India. And this menu? It’s a masterpiece of chaos and comfort.
First impression? The menu is long. Like, a novel. You might panic. “Do I want the Chicken Tikka Masala or the Lamb Vindaloo?” It’s a crisis of delicious indecision.
But don’t worry. I’m here to be your sherpa through this spicy wilderness. You must start with the Samosas. They are greasy little triangles of joy. The filling is spiced potato and peas, and you dip it in that tangy tamarind sauce. It’s a flavor explosion.

For the main event? The Butter Chicken is the crowd-pleaser. It’s rich, it’s creamy, and it tastes like a hug from a friendly uncle who cooks really well. It’s impossible to hate.
But if you’re feeling brave? Get the Saag Paneer. It’s spinach and cheese, but it tastes like witchcraft. It’s earthy and green and somehow decadent.
(Rhetorical question time: Why is Indian food so good at making vegetables taste like a party? Seriously. I would eat a shoe if it was covered in their gravy.)
The Naan Situation
Let’s talk about the bread. The Naan from Taste Of India is not just bread. It’s a pillow. A garlicky, buttery pillow you use to scoop up heaven.
Get the Garlic Naan. Don’t even think about the plain one. That’s like going to a water park and sitting on a bench. You want the garlic, the butter, the slight char. That’s the stuff.
Pro tip: You can actually use the Flying Pizza crust to dip in the Taste Of India leftovers. Is it cultural fusion? Or madness? Who cares. It works.
The Perfect Split Personality
Here is the best part. You don’t have to choose. You can be a split personality diner.
Cottage Cheese Pizza (Paneer Pizza) - Pizza with PaneerFlying Pizza
Order a Pepperoni from Flying Pizza for the comfort. And then, because you’re curious, throw in a Palak Paneer from Taste Of India for the adventure. It’s the yin and yang of takeout.
One night you crave cheese and tomato sauce. The next night you crave cumin and coriander. These two menus have you covered like a warm, buttery blanket.
I once ordered a Flying Pizza slice and a samosa in the same delivery. The driver looked at me funny. I didn’t care. I had the best of two worlds on one plate. It was beautiful.
The Verdict, Straight Up
So, Flying Pizza? It’s your reliable best friend. It shows up. It’s never disappointing. It’s the slice you want on a Tuesday night when you’ve had a long day.
Taste Of India? It’s the cool friend who introduces you to new music. It’s bold, spicy, and a little mysterious. It makes you feel sophisticated even when you’re eating in your pajamas.
My final advice? Keep both menus pinned to your fridge. Or saved in your browser. You never know when the mood strikes.
Are you more of a Pizza person or a Curry person? Don’t answer that. You can be both. Tonight, be both. Your taste buds will thank you. And your stomach will do a little happy dance. Just don’t ask for pineapple on the curry. That’s where I draw the line.
