About Fatte Albert's Pizza Co.

With over 30 years of restaurant experience between them, Steve and Wendy feel right at home in the pizza kitchen at Fatte Albert’s Pizza Company in downtown Hanford.  Just as Wendy grew up in her family’s pizzeria, their four children can be seen regularly hanging out at the downtown Hanford pizza shop sitting next to Dad as he hand rolls every fresh dough ball, or folding pizza boxes with Mom on the counter.

Born in Hanford and raised in local farming and agriculture communities, Steve and Wendy decided to make Hanford their home and felt that downtown Hanford was the perfect setting for what they had envisioned for the pizzeria they had long dreamed of.

With their kids in local schools and Steve a Marine Corps veteran, giving back to the community that gives so much to them is priority number one.  Shopping local and utilizing local produce, meats, cheese and dairy has always been important to the integrity of Fatte Albert’s Pizza Company.

As other pizza restaurants take short cuts with frozen dough balls, processed meats, cheeses and frozen veggies, we pay more and put more time and effort into our prep process which begins hours before we open our doors.  With that said keep in mind that we are not a fast food establishment.  Everything is made right when you order it, so sit back and enjoy an ice cold pint or a cream soda and watch your dough being hand-tossed and created into a pizza masterpiece from our family to yours!

This Jalapeno was off his game

Last night we had seven teams show up to battle it out for

Round #1: Hoot n Hollar came out hard by putting faith in their answer of question 4 as "Inferno". Unfortunately, they learned the hard way what "Double or Nothing truly means. What's Left of the Avengers and A Drinking Team with a Trivia Problem played it safe and it paid off for them as they tied for first place.

Round #2: What's Left of the Avengers and A Drinking Team with a Trivia Problem knew their Pixel art characters and both teams were successful with a double and continued to be tied for first place. Most of the other teams managed to only get 7 out of 8 correct and thought (Dr. Zoidberg from Futurama) was (Mr. Crabs from Sponge Bob).

Round #3: A Drinking Team with a Trivia Problem got all six answers right but did go for double since one was a guess, but that still gave them a 1-point lead and ending the tie with What's Left of the Avengers. Newcomers Groove Guys and Clueless got 5 out of 6 questions right as they seemed to get into their groove.

Round #4: Groove Guys guessed the answer was Jennifer Lawrence on the 8-point clue only to find out they were wrong. A Drinking Team with a Trivia Problem had a "Frozen" fan on their team who figured out the answer was Elsa on the 6-point clue. The rest of the teams figured it out by the 4-point clue. Like me, most of the teams were not fans of Frozen.

Round #5: Four teams got 8 out of 10 questions right, but it was only Clueless and Groove Guys who knew that Marvin Gaye was the King of Soul. "We believe in Harvey Dent" ..., but one team who shall remain nameless, showed their age as they thought Batman villain "Two-Face's" real name was Billy D. Williams. Talk about a 1989 Batman throwback.

Round #6: Out of nowhere, Clueless was the only team to get all 10 answers correct and they even went for the double earning them applause from the other teams.

Round #7: NFL and oh, how I scored an "F" for this round. All of the teams went for double or nothing and in a sense so did I. Thanks to a scoring error by everyone's favorite Jalapeno, we saw all teams successful with 20 points. That is until, I realized I read the answers wrong "Ugh". In the end, A Drinking Team with a Trivia Problem, What's Left of the Avengers, War Moose and Hoot n Hollar managed to get the successful double for the round.

When the dust cleared, A Drinking Team with a Trivia Problem took 1st Place. What's Left of the Avengers came in 2nd Place and War Moose finished in 3rd Place.

The Bonus Round was called "Mix and Match", Where I played a mix of 2 songs and the first team to correctly identify both the band and song tittle won. The Queens went for it, but only managed to get one of the songs correct. In the end, it was Groove Guys who had the extensive music background to hear Journey: Faithfully and The Doors: L.A. Woman were mixed together.

Groove Guys (Pictured with yours truly) showed me lots of love after the game since I was feeling down about my scoring error. Thanks guys, for the Jalapeno love.

We are here each and every week, errors or not, we laugh and always have a blast.
