Japanese Ice Cream Cone Pizza
Kono Pizza, a fast food restaurant is offering its customers pizza in a cone.
Instead of preparing toppings on a traditional flat crust, the toppings are placed inside a cone shaped crust (think an ice cream cone) and then baked.
The reasoning behind this strange creation is that cone pizza eliminates the mess and need for silverware that traditional pizza slices require. Cone Pizza can be eaten on the run.
Kono Pizza offers customers 7 different types of pizza cones and 2 dessert cones. Pizza cones are prepared freshly and cooked on site in a specially designed conveyor belt oven.
Kono Pizza currently has 5 stores in Tokyo and 1 in Nagoya.

There is also a place that serves pizza on a cone- EXACTLY like this in the Santa Anita Mall, Arcadia, CA.

There’s also a place like that on Times Square, in Causeway Bay, Hong Kong. Great idea, though..

Add another Italian fast food chain from Moscow, Russia that serves pizza in a cone. It called pizza Cornetto. Check http://www.pasta-la-vista.com or http://i-food.livejournal.com/..

Is ‘Kono Pizza’ a play on words? Kono is Japanese for ‘this’, but presumably it’s also a pun on ‘cone’…
