    Ate at Alex Pizzeria yesterday on third floor of Lee Plaza on recommendations from here. Both my daughter & I found it was way below average, overpriced(for what it was), dry, tasteless, low cost ingredients, reheated in an oven toaster. Never again.

    Robinsons have practically doubled the Rents and imposed many new conditions that now vendors/Businesses are voting with their feet

    I ate there yesterday and it took 39 minutes and 28 seconds to get the pizza from time the waitress walked away to the time it was on my table. Prep time was around 5 minutes and it was in the oven for about 15 minutes. There is absolutely no way they could get an order on your table in 5 minutes...unless you are there at a very busy time and they have the most commonly ordered pizzas already premade and being cooked.

    Not a complaint, the pizza was great, just saying it isn't possible to get one in 5 minutes unless you order a basic pizza that is already in the oven.

    Since they now have a wood burning pizza oven at Why Not I am convinced it is the best pizza in Dumaguete.

    So you are saying from the time I put in the order to the time this freshly made pizza is sitting in front of me it takes 5 minutes? Not possible even if they are making it in a microwave. Perhaps you are good friends with the owner and are stretching the truth a bit?

    I like the pizza from Esturya. Try the truffles one.

    A nice, hot burning pizza oven can cook a Neapolitan pizza in as little as 30-seconds. Now that's a specific type of pizza, and that's a very hot pizza oven - a bit less than 500 degrees Celsius. About 90-seconds is more common of course. Much more than 2-minutes, for that specific type of pizza, which has a particular type of crust, is probably less than ideal.

    At home, in our crappy, electric, maxes out at 250 degrees oven, it's always less than 10-minutes. But we do try and make our pizza Neapolitan style. Sort of. Ha!

    Anyway, just commenting on the fact that 15-minutes, for a pizza, in any type of commercial oven seems like a long time. But I have no expertise in the field. Some types of pizzas / pizza crust may do best in a cooler oven.
