Im pretty sure papa GINOS is just in new england, and I'm not sure where you are from, but have you ever had papa Ginos?
I had papa johns only once. I was sitting in a traffic jam at a red light going home from work, and it was right outside a papa johns. They had workers outside handing out free slices to people stuck at the light, and lucky me: I got one. Was pretty damn good!
I would compare it to papa ginos.
The dominos in my area? I would put it in the category of frozen pizza. While frozen pizza is great for the value, and I do enjoy frozen piizza sometimes, when I order from a pizzaria I dont want frozen style pizza....
I like in the suburbs of boston, so its pretty densly populated. There are probably 15 or so pizza places to order from so, I guess all the competition makesk them strive to be the best they can be, hence defeating the dominos chain whicih adheres to a strict recipe, that they cannot change(so I would believe. Im just guessing)
