STEPH DEROSA: SLOW BURN >>>
Pita Pit
Buffalo Chicken Pita
Price: $6.15
Burn Factor: One out of four Molotov cocktails
Since Pacific Lutheran University’s restaurants thrive on their college dining crowd, I figured I’d step into one of the cheaper lunchtime options, Pita Pit. If there was one word my friends and I could use to describe our typical Pita Pit order, The Dagwood, it’d be “grubbin’!†Now if only I could get this pita/sandwich institution to serve up something that made my salivary glands scream “spicy!†I’d be one happy jalapeño lover.
I’m quickly learning that when most dining establishments dabble in “spicy,†they mean, “buffalo sauce.†This buffalo sauce business must be obviously common because as most people know, “quickly learning†is not necessarily my forte.
Pita Pit’s brand new Buffalo Chicken Pita screamed my name from the menu chalkboard. Unfortunately, it did not make my mouth scream at all. Of course you could build this thing any way you want, so I added the jalapenos and peppers just like any good salsa-lita would do, and that right there is where the heat came from on my Buffalo Chicken Pita. Don’t get me wrong, the flavor was all well and good as usual, but for a lady who likes the heat in her food, this pita fell short.
