Of all of the franchaise/chain restaurants out there, California Pizza Kitchen aka CPK is one of the better ones. I don’t want to sound like an old Debbie Downer but the only thing that bugs me every time I go to this place is the high pricetag on all of the food… the bill always ends up being really uber and then I end up feeling a bit resentful that I paid $20+ for a meal, ugh!
We started off with the Spinich Artichoke Dip. I swear this dip has drugs in it because I end up gobbling up the whole bowl in seconds. It’s so good and so greasy… it comes with white and blue super salty corn chips. If I could afford to get this (it’s about $10) everytime I went to CPK and if didn’t add to the growing ring of fat around my stomach I would.
Above is the Sweet & Spicy Italian Sausage Pizza. It’s good (for being frozen), and the crust is unmistakably CPK – buttery, soft and sweet (nothing crispy or flaky about this pizza, sorry). My only gripe is that there are too many onions on it!!!
