Pizza Hut Xmas in China
While I was in China, more and more American restaurant businesses were entering the market. We had many McDonalds, two Starbucks, and Papa Johns Pizza. Well the Shanghaiist blog just released a great little posting about a special being offered this Christmas at Pizza Hut in China. As they put it, it's "Pizza Hut's Christmas Gift to China? A Heart Attack."
It relates how Pizza Hut is offering a special Christmas platter of a turkey pizza surrounded by mini cheese and sausage roll-ups. But it's the link to the real advertisement that is priceless: Click here to see the Chinese Pizza Hut Christmas Special TV commercial. It is a great example of Chinese tv advertising. And yes, I know its in Chinese. But it is well worth seeing and hearing.
What you will notice in that link and advertisement is that the Christmas special also includes eggnog, shrimp tempura, bbq wings, waffle fries, wine, and soup!! Don't you always serve shrimp tempura with your eggnog? When I lived and visited our Papa Johns, it always amazed me that they were serving as much soup, bbq wings, and corn kernels than they were pizza. Not exactly the selection you would expect to find in an American Pizza Hut.
