Pala Pizza and Chicken — Restaurant in Irvine

For those who aren't Asian but LOVE Asian flavors, like Spicy Chicken Pizza, you'll get addicted after your first slice and then you'll realize that it's worth every penny. Oh yeah, the crust is cheese-filled too!

For Foodies, you'll wonder about the unusual high price for a rather small portion "large" pizza but that doubt will be forever gone and you'll give your own stamp of approval. 🏆

Now, pizza with no Chicken Wings? Not happening, even among Asians! 😉 What kind of wings? Of course, Asian flavored Sweet-Spicy Fried Chicken Wings. They are out of this world! Golden fried crispy and coated with the flavoring, gooey & messy, but FUN! Who doesn't like to lick their fingers when it's just yummy delish~!!! Don't forget to wash your hands before you eat! "Yes, mother!" 😝

They have tons of flavors for both the pizza & wings. If you like spicy but not too much, just mention it and they can customize it for you. I personally cannot handle the regular spicy, but when asked if they could notch it down a little, they did it, perfectly! I always go with the "staple item" of a particular place and usually suggest doing so but I feel like although the other flavors aren't my cup of tea, they are probably very good as well. 😊

Now, the cherry on top is the amazingly awesome service that has been the same delightful experience for over 5 years! I am notorious for customizing things, "no this, extra that, on the side..." phew! Sounds like George from Seinfeld... I know, "What a pain in the arse, this lassie is..." What is that? Scottish? Irish? It's great service with whatever accent! 🎉

Don't let the "empty look" fool you. It is going strong with the same great taste and service! Enjoy! Bon appetit! Buen provecho! Bom apetite! Itadakimasu! 맞이게 드세요!🍕🍗

Went by this place on the way to and from the restroom while I was shopping at H Mart.

I like shopping at H Mart on the weekends because they are usually very generous with their samples. Sometimes you get a Korean lady who just stares at me and my Japanese wife like she doesn't like one or both of us and wouldn't give us a sample even if she was paid to do it. Oh wait - she is!

The beer at H Mart is cold. It is odd, though - the prices I mean. American brews like Coors Lite and Bud Lite are less expensive here than at Ralph's, Vons etc but the cheap brews like PBR are more expensive here. Doesn't matter, they all go down the same.

I used to get watched by the security guard all the time here when I had long green hair. Now I have chopped my main to a socially acceptable natural-colored shirt coif aaaand.. STILL the guard is on me like garlic on kimchee. Maybe he...

I got the bulgogi potato pizza and fried chicken. Was disappointed to discovering that the pizza also had pork in the mix. A couple of bites went down my stomach. They should have stated that in the menu. I can't eat pork!!!! The guy at the counter didn't apologize but admitted that all their pizza have pork in it. Buyer who have dietary...
