Recently, I brought my stomach and ravenous appetite to the
Frosted Mug located at 15861 US
Hwy 160 in Forsyth,
Missouri! After going through a
change in management, I was curious to see if their signature offering of pizza
had gotten better or worst or just stayed about the same.
I arrived in the late afternoon on a Saturday in early
February when the weather outside was serving up cool temperatures under cloudy skies. The perfect kind of
weather in which to enjoy a hot, cheesy pizza! (Actually, any old day is a good
day for pizza – a fact my expanding waistline will readily attest to).
According to the menu, I noticed they offer a pretty wide
variety of types and sizes, designed to fit needs ranging from single diners to
large gatherings. On this visit, my eyes were quickly attracted to both the
vegetable and meat versions. I inquired if I could have a little of both and
was told it would not be a problem.
While I was waiting for my pizza to be prepared from scratch,
I contented myself to ordering a cold frosted mug for which this establishment
is named. Hmm. Let me see now, cold beer and pizza! Can it get much better that?
While sipping my beer, I had a chance to look around to see what was what. I’ve
been coming to the Mug for many years now and have always been impressed with
the warm homey feeling that the place exudes.
On this day, that same feeling was still there and maybe this
sounds silly, but the staff seemed very friendly and upbeat! Some of them were
new, like Karen, who graciously served me during my visit. In the picture below, Heather is showing off the pizza I ordered which I understand is a new
creation to be found only at the Mug!
OK, now down to the nitty-gritty. The pizza – was it great,
so-so or terrible?? I’ll tell you this about that. It was so good,
that half of it was gone before I even realized it. This pizza was absolutely addictive.
It reminded me of years back when I used to go to the world famous pizza emporium
in Chicago
known as
Lou Malnati's Pizzeria! They served a deep dish pizza that had customers lined up on
the street, just to get in. This pizza was all that and more!
If you get a chance, please stop in and check out this wonderful and friendly icon. The Frosted Mug can be reached at 417) 546-4149 during
