One of my favorite parts of running in any race is the meal
that night, when everything is over and all you feel is STARVING! After Amy’s
marathon we demolished a Chinese buffet! When Amy finally woke up from her
post-race nap in VA Beach (I hurt too much to sleep) we took to the streets to
find a good place to dine. Our intentions were not to end up at a pizza place
but alas, we did!
Doughboy’s Pizzeria
is a local chain found up and down the main drag. It is decorated in a very
beachy, almost Hawaiin theme. One of the reasons we picked it is because it was
not far from our hotel and I could barely walk! It was empty after the race and
as I proudly wore my marathon finisher hoodie we dug in to some terrific food!
We started with a very simple yet hot and fresh dish of French
fries. I am kind of a fry fanatic and nothing looked better than that first
plate of golden fries. They were lightly seasoned with garlic and surprisingly
a great finger food to munch on as we waited for our pizza. For the main dish
we settled on their specialty Cheeseburger Pizza. With a blend of cheese and
thick cut rounds of ground beef it was a great choice! As the pizzeria name
suggests, their crust was very doughy, but not in that “this is undercooked way”,
but in the “this is soft and fluffy way”. We finished all but a few pieces
which we took back to the hotel to consume as a late night snack!
Here is the ranking for Doughboy’s garlic fries and
cheeseburger pizza:
Sauce= 3
Cheese= 4
Crust=4.5
Toppings=5
Overall=4
Additions=4, Basket of Garlic Fries
TOTAL SCORE: 24.5/30.
Doughboy’s Pizzeria was a great choice for our post-marathon race and I would
happily go there again! For this 30@30 item, Doughboy’s stands strong in second
place!
