Pizza Hut is having a new promotional pizza called the Starzbites Sausage Pizza. It comes with the tagline “Double the treat! Double the fun!” and is a new concept where mini cocktail sausages (like mine) are embedded in the crust – not as in sausage ring type filled crust (which was a previous promotion), but in a star burst configuration.
True to Pizza Hut’s promotional pizza tradition, there is a spinner game involved. 🙂 The rules of the game have changed this time though – you’re allowed one spin, and if the spin goes to a free regular Starzbites pizza, you have to spin for a second time and get it right again to get the pizza. Otherwise, you default to the second spin’s item.
I’m know to be spun all the time (old readers of sixthseal.com will get this reference ;)) so I was the designated spinner. I got a free salad (which is better than a free Pepsi, which is what I tend to get in the spinner games). 🙂
Thus, it was off to the salad bar to claim my free salad…
…which I’m not able to utilize to the full potential due to my lack of salad stacking skillz. 😉
This is the Starzbites Sausage Pizza with Hawaiian Supreme topping. It’s claim to fame is the star burst configuration and the alternate toppings on the individual sausages. The New York style topping of mayonnaise and tomato sauce is on one sausage while the next sausage would have the Chicago style topping of honey mustard and relish.
The Starzbites sausage pizza is also given a sprinkling of black sesame seeds on the side of the star burst shaped pizza. It tastes quite good and is a rather novel presentation of a pizza.
The STARZBITES Sausage 1 combo (recommended for 2 persons) is priced from RM 29.90 and contains:
1 Regular Starzbites Sausage Pizza
2 Soup-of-the-Day
4 pcs Breadstix
2 glasses of 7Up Revive
I am dying for a “Hawaiian Pizza” that is without Canadian Bacon….I have my eyes set on some good old Chicken pieces with my pineapple…. Damn Americans and their stupid Canadian Bacon….Actually, screw pizza, I want good old Hainanese (sp?) Chicken Rice…Hmm, I can’t wait. Just 10 days! 🙂
HB, how do you get pictures with the staff? Do you tell them about your blog?
What a coinsident. I have just tasted the Starzbites pizza last week together with your die-hard fan Roland.
I got a free pepsi for my spin but the waitress was kind enuf to give me another chance, which I got 2 free deli wings.
The pizza ah? So so nia le… Prefer the old stuff cruz.
Two hands on two guys. LOL
Ever since I came to U.S., I lost interest in pizza. The only time I will eat it is during a meeting.
Skwermy: 9 days till you’re back. 🙂 It’s just a little more than a week. What is Canadian Bacon anyway? How different is it from regular bacon?
Dr. Pepsi: Well, I just ask them. For this one, I told the waitress that I want to take a photo with her. I think I said “Wait, lemme take a photo with you with me holding the spinner game” (the equivalent in BM).
Wilson: Yeah, the staff has the discretion to do that. I spinned to the salad and the waitress came back and asked if I wanted to spin again, and I told her it’s alright. I don’t want to get a Pepsi. 🙂
Deli wings is a good spin though. Stuff crust as in cheese stuffed crust or the old promotion with a sausage ring?
fish fish: Yeah, she’s more hardcore than me. 😉
One of them is her little brother though. Haha!
I don’t eat much pizza as well, prefer other stuff to it. I haven’t eaten burgers in a while too, come to think of it.

He came back from KL for a day, was hanging out with him during CNY.

To market in full terms of high-performance rather than price, and in order to specialise accordingly, you necessitate to follow the official format of the 4 Ps marketing plan. That is, Price, Product, Place and Promotion obviously you recognize the essential attributes of the merchandise, and the cost, but for place you should consider nearly the type of mass who are willing to give over 4x price of competing product whereas the low-budget option may be sold where emphasis is on cost, your ware will be suited to places/distributors where the clients will be willing to pay for high-performance.
