Pizza Hut Singapore has the “Double Sensation” pizza, while Australia has the “Mexicana” nacho and guacamole pizza. Naturally, Pizza Hut Hong Kong had to step it up and offer the “Cheesy Opera Pizza” in order to stay in the game. Each Cheesy Opera Pizza has a twisted cheese crust base pizza that comes fully loaded with chicken, ham, beef, pork, tomato, oregano and red onion. It doesn’t stop there (don’t be silly) — on top of that is a smaller, thin-crust pizza that comes with your choice of two-topping combinations.

One of the two combinations is fairly normal, Canadian smoked ham, beef, pork, pepperoni, olives, mushrooms, pineapple, green peppers and Japanese cucumber on tomato sauce. The other, the “Cheesy Opera Pizza with Scallop,” calls for more adventurous taste buds and features scallop, clam meat, peaches, mushrooms, red peppers and Japanese cucumber on pesto sauce with a drizzle of honey mustard. They go for $173 HK ($22.32 US) and $220 HK ($28.32 US), respectively.

No word on why it’s named the Cheesy Opera Pizza. Perhaps they’re referring to the raised seating often found in opera houses and the second layer of the pizza is meant to resemble the balcony seating overlooking the stage? Or maybe we’re looking too deep into the matter and this is your typical college-essay scenario where there is never a right answer. For all we know, someone at Pizza Hut is sending a subliminal message that cheesy pizza should be served at operas. If so, we wholeheartedly concur.
