 Where do you get the best pizza in Greenwich?
 No doubt about it. It has to be planet pizza. No way, the pizzas in Colony
Grill, just around the corner, are so much tastier... and they have more
variety and the friendliest waiters.
 Yeah, I agree Louisa much better quality. It is not the cheapest though, but
they're more delicious.
 It is true. That Colony Grill is nearer than Planet Pizza. The cheese is not as
good though, and for me it's all in the cheese. They use the worst cheese.
apart from this, they also offer fewer types of pizza than planet pizza. I
think planet pizza has the most amazing pizza I have ever eaten with the
crispiest base ever, and it's less expensive than in other places. Their
cheese is the best it can be.
 Hey guys, have you heard that a new pizza place has opened up in town?
Would you like to check it out? I heard they are giving away free samples
 Yes, we would. let's go guys

center.
