Here's a cute corner of the wall.

How does the corn pizza with cheese crust taste?

The pizza came out first. I got the regular corn pizza with the cheese crust upgrade. It arrived piping hot, and the first thing I noticed was the generous toppings. It felt like they didn't skimp on ingredients, which was satisfying just to look at, and when I picked up a slice, the cheese stretched out long and looked really tempting.

Dough that's neither too thick nor too thin

You can feel how plump the corn kernels are. Taking a bite, the dough impressed me most. It's neither too thick nor too thin, with a crisp outside and moist inside, so I could enjoy it all the way to the crust's end.

The dough's own nutty flavor comes through and goes well with the toppings, and even after a while it didn't turn chewy, so I enjoyed it down to the last slice. The cheese crust is plump and packed full.

Toppings that aren't salty or too greasy

The toppings felt fresh too. The cheese was nutty and rich, and the sauce wasn't overpowering, letting the ingredients' own flavor shine. The saltiness isn't excessive, so it's the kind you keep reaching for, and easy to eat without feeling heavy. Pizza can sometimes get greasy, but Raccoon Pizza has a good overall balance, so that feeling was less.

Half chicken, fries and sauces including condensed milk

I was fetching sauces, and then the chicken arrived.

The fries came out too. Fries with chicken and pizza are the golden rule, right? I like that Raccoon Pizza Mapo Station branch has lots of sides to go with your meal. There's condensed milk among the sauces too. And above all, the warm texture of freshly baked pizza and the flavor of the cheese stayed in my memory for a long time.

Personally, if you're wondering about pizza near Mapo Station, I think Raccoon Pizza Mapo Station branch is worth a visit at least once. I especially recommend it to people who like pizza that sticks to the basics and lets you taste fresh ingredients, rather than flashy, intense flavors.

I ordered the corn pizza and was very satisfied 👍
