(Knowing immediately what I thought he was doing). “Oh it was a race around the world” he replied.
He was in New Zealand to restock and told his future bride that she was invited to a party back in the UK when the race was over at the finish in 6 months. Turns out Roger met his wife while he was at port during a boat race. As I begin chatting it up with them with the obvious small talk (How did you two meet?), I soon realized I just met a man I won’t soon forget. The man was from the UK and his wife was from South Africa. The following day was the wedding, and at our table, along with our new found Welsh friends, was another unassuming couple. Nigel is very easy going and he and his wife were great company to drink beers with, and from talking to him you’d never know that he eats nails for breakfast, which makes it all the better. I sat quietly (well, quietly for me), and listened, and learned. Huh… Didn’t see that ‘I need to get healthy’ story going that direction. When I inquired about the types of runs he’s done (you know, “Have you tried a marathon yet?”), he told me about some of the 100 milers he’s done, the multi day races, the Spartathlon, and on. It helped him quit smoking (used to pull on a cigarette right before the start of a race! ha) and got him healthy. As we got to talking, and I got to listening, it turns out our new Welsh friend Nigel took up the sport of running just 3 short years ago. Upon arrival to this small German town outside of Munich, we were immediately introduced to this great couple from Wales. After all, I’ve done my share of long distance racing in various locals around the world, so I should be able to participate in a given conversation. Usually in a situation like this I feel fairly comfortable in my surroundings. We got to know the couple through endurance sports (more specifically, Ironman), so it was no surprise that there would be others at the wedding with the same common interests. I probably need to try this place again.Recently I took a trip over to Germany with my wife to attend a wedding of some friends of ours. Also ordered a medium regular pizza and it tasted great but the ingredients stopped three inches from the edge, so feel slightly cheated. Crust was different than I'm used to, more cornmeal like but wasn't bad. It takes a while to get your pizza, but deep dish takes longer. I am not a fan of dirty money hanging from the ceiling as decorations but the rest of the dinning area was very clean. "The jury is still in deliberation on this place for me personally. Giordanos is better but do you really have the time to drive to Chicago? Excellent experience overall!" Excellent service (people make mistakes but the management is willing to cover it). She immediately apologized and comped our meal. The owner came out at minutes and apologized that the waitress didn’t put in our order. The waitress was very nice.Told us clearly how long we would have to wait for a deep dish pizza. The owner seated us with some relaxed comedy.

All of them were amazing! Plus the staff was so friendly and helpful." We had the death Star meatball, cheese of the day pizza, and the Samoan. Relaxing environment, good music, and fantastic food. Not sure if I’ll be going back to this establishment again." The pizza is kind of pricey but usually it’s worth buying. Extremely upset about it.Not sure if I’ll be going back after this. tonight’s pizza seemed like they ran out of sauce cheese and toppings there was hardly anything on my pizza, and yet they still decided to serve it. Normally it’s loaded with cheese and toppings and sauce it’s amazing. I go there all the time for the Chicago deep dish. "Highly disappointed With the pizza I got tonight. The food came out quickly and was delicious! This is our favorite place in OKC for Chicago style pizza so definitely recommend!" We ordered a pepperoni deep dish and salad. "The staff was so friendly and professional.
