Mordours Pizza


Oh goodness. There is much to be said about Mordours, but sadly not a lot of positives... in a word: Awkward. Let's start with the location. I'm sure (if you live in Fayetteville), you've driven past the classy establishment called Seductions... what the H. If you don't live in Fayetteville, Seductions is a trashy lingerie store that, when driven passed, results in some sort of comment or joke. So since it gets noticed by us, we also happened to notice the awkward pizza place sharing the same building. And that's how Mordours made its grand entrance into our lives. We decided (mostly with lots of laughing) to go try it out the other night... this is what happened. We walked in (as we passed a group heading into the lingerie store and Lucas' eyes were locked on the ground) a little confused, managed to find a worker and order a pizza. Then we were given our luke-warm canned beverages and found a table (which was tough...). Immediately after seating ourselves, we noticed that NO ONE was talking. There were 3 other parties there and 2 workers and complete silence. Awkward. So we continued to whisper and snicker until our pizza came. We would LOVE to tell you that Mordours is the best kept pizza secret in Fayetteville (we really were rooting for the under dog), but sadly this is not the case. It was just mediocre and since the restaurant didn't have any other redeeming qualities... it lost. There's really not much else to be said except to throw in the incredible entertainment we found in the random, solo boy sitting behind us, playing his gameboy and bobbing his head profusely to the music the whole time we were there. Awesome. And... AWKWARD.


Ok, it did have one redeeming quality-- the to-go boxes were "the bomb dot com" (from Lucas). But really they were the coolest.

YOU WENT TO MORDORS!?! HAHAA! I think Kick always wanted to go there, you should have took her along with y'all.

The sad thing is that this place used to have the BEST location... so hidden and secretive... with TONS of writing all over the ground and walls... we (Whit, Christy, Kara, and I... and maybe Linds and Stace?) clearly marked this floor w/ our names. It was one of our favorite/most hilarious experiences of our lives. I hope they were still obsessed w/ Lord of the Rings or whatever it was and were playing video games the entire time y'all were there... because that is what made it wonderful. Also... our pizza wasn't bad! Maybe everything has gone down hill with the new location... sad day for Mordours. Well clearly... since it closed. Great. Bye.

okay, so we are avid supporters of mordors, and feel as if we should say:
they got a kickn old house in tawnytown, and now serve pizza in the living room of that. it is awesome and very hipster/trashy chic.
