There’s something comforting about having a favorite meal made just the way you like it.

When one regular’s pizza order began catching on with other customers, the owners decided to reward her loyalty and influence with a specially named pizza in her honor!

Read on for your daily dose of positivity.

A local pizza place decided to name the pizza I normally order after me.

There is a local pizza place a block or two from my house.

I get pizza from there once or twice a month, not that often, and I always order the same toppings: mushrooms, tomatoes, spinach, and feta.

Soon, her order started catching on.

Someone heard me ordering it and asked for the same thing.

So the pizza place added it to their special board, called “The Mirarom”.

I feel weirdly honored.

It was a sweet and unexpected moment of connection.

What did Reddit make of this story?

What an honor for this regular.
