Battle of the beef at Pizza Hut!

Stepping onto their 18th year of successful operations, Pizza Hut started the new decade in the best manner possible byintroducing two brand new flavours for Bangladeshison 28 January, 2021. Pizza lovers —be prepared to tantalise your taste buds because these flavours are nothing like your ordinary pizza options!

Being the forerunner when it comes to playing with exciting flavours toconcoct innovative and lip-smacking creations in their kitchen, Pizza Hut has rolled out a couple of beefy additions to their menu in the non-veg line, Mejbani Beef and Beef Kala Bhuna. Pretty explanatory from the names, this is the international chain's take on our local flavours to provide customers with the best of fusion food.

In regards to this, Amit Dev Thapa, CEO of Transcom Foods Ltd. and sole franchisee of Pizza Hut Bangladesh,said, "We constantly update our menu with new flavours and items but this is the first time we chose to provide something to our customers that perfectly caters to their nativetaste palette by satiating their local cravings whilst maintaining our international standards."

Inspired by authentic Chittagonian flavours, Mejbani Beef and Beef Kala Bhuna are available across all outlets of Pizza Hut countrywide. More so, these new additions have been highly appreciated by the citizens of Chattogram as well, giving them not only something to savour but also something they take pride in.

The two flavours are available only in their signature pan-crust style pizza in three different sizes,personal, medium, and family. Each of these are available in four delectable avatars as well. The hot version has a tinge of spiciness exuding from red paprika and capsicum sitting atop while the chilli rendition has that fiery kick emanating from spicy jalapenos and green chillies dispersed throughout.

On the other hand, the spicy version will embrace your taste buds with a burst of freshness and pungency due to the addition of tomatoes that complement the chunks of beef perfectly. The same can be said for the deluxe version, with its triad of toppings—capsicum, mushroom, and tomatoes— scattered evenly.

The price starts at only Tk 299, which means they are easy on the wallet. Furthermore, Mejbani Beef and Beef Kala Bhuna are available for both dine-in and takeaway with the option of free home delivery as well.

"It was easier for a global franchise like ours to quickly get accustomed to the drastic changes brought about by the pandemic because we had already been maintaining such hygiene measures since several years," noted Thapa.

So, whether you need something delicious to munch on while binge watching your favourite series curled up in your blanket at home orare finally giving into the strict safety protocols that we dutifully adhered to for the most part of last year — you know where to head! The only question is, which team will you be in — Mejabani Beef squad or Beef Kala Bhuna squad?
