Boil Order Lifted for Laughlin - June 25, 2018

June 25, 2018 Contact: Corey Enus FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (702) 219-5193 BOIL WATER ORDER LIFTED FOR LAUGHLIN, Nv ~ Laughlin Water Supplies Meet Drinking Water Standards ~ ~ Customers in the Casino Drive Corridor May Resume Normal Water Use ~ (Laughlin, Nev., June 25) – In conjunction with the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection and the Nevada Bureau of Safe Drinking Water, the Big Bend Water District (BBWD) has lifted the Boiled Water Order in Laughlin, Nev. Water quality sampling and testing has confirmed that Laughlin’s municipal water supplies meet or surpass safe drinking water standards. All customers served by the BBWD may now resume normal water use for cooking, drinking and cleaning. As an added precaution, property owners within Laughlin’ Casino Drive Corridor may flush plumbing system. Commercial properties may resume normal water use. Plumbing systems may be flushed as needed to resume normal business operations. For medical, dental, and foodservice establishments, please refer to the Southern Nevada Health District at 702-759-1110 for guidance or visit the Hot Topics links at http://www.southernnevadahealthdistrict.org/index.php. For the few residential customers in the area, flushing recommendations are as follows. • Cold Water Flush: Run all cold water taps for three minutes. If you have a single-lever faucet, set it to run the cold water first. • Hot Water Flush: Flush hot water for a minimum of 15 minutes for a typical household 40-gallon hot-water tank, 30 minutes for an 80-gallon hot water tank or larger. Bath tubs provide a great faucet for flushing as the flow is unrestricted from an aerator. Water flushed through tubs and shower drains is captured and recycled. • Dishwashers: After flushing hot water pipes and water heater, run dishwasher empty for one full cycle. • Ice cubes: Automatic ice machines emptied of ice during the boil order may run through a 24-hour cycle, discarding the ice to assure flushing of the ice maker supply line. • Refrigerator water-dispensing machine: Water dispensers from refrigerators should be flushed by at least one quart of water. If unsure of your dispenser's capacity, refer to manufacturer specifications. • Humidifiers: Discard any water used in humidifiers and any medical or health care devices. Rinse the devices with clean water. Consult a heath care professional if appropriate. For more information, BBWD customers can all the 24-hour customer service number at 702-870-4194.

Megatoppers Pizza in Bullhead City, AZ

Laughlin, NV

*Review - MegaToppers in Bullhead City

We seldom order Pizza. When we do it is usually from somewhere in Laughlin. Like Mama's Pizzeria, or before they closed, La Piazza Pizza.

We had been looking forward to finally trying Aldape's Deli Pizza --- BUT when we called they had already closed.

Since we had a Megatoppers Menu and had heard so many good things about their pizza, we decided to give it a try. 

We ordered two pizzas and a couple orders of chicken wings.

The pizza was ok but it wasn't what we expected after reading the positive raves and reviews about it on Facebook.

 Pizza is a very subjective topic, everyone certainly has their own preferences and tastes, so this is just our opinion.

Less Toppings, More Sauce

Megatoppers lives up to their name with an overabundance of topping.  The toppings were good, unfortunately there should of been more sauce.

The crust was just ok too, but we wold of preferred a thinner, crisper crust. The outside of the crust of the pizza was very wide, too much so.

*Here is a one line summary of the Pizza (from everyone who had some when we ordered):

If you put it in a Pizza Hut Box I would believe it was from there.

Adequate yet unspectacular Pizza, better than Little Caesars or Dominos.

It's good Pizza, I like it.  I would get it again. 

It's good enough when you are hungry for Pizza.

Too many toppings and they overwhelm the slice, not enough sauce. 

The Chicken Wings were cooked well and better than the pizza.  We ordered mild but should of went with hot as there was very little heat to them.  Plus they were a bit pricey.  Two pizzas and a couple orders of wings ran us about $42.  Too high a price for the quality. 

We still haven't found a really great pizza in the area. At least not like we were used to in other places we lived.  It's all about the perfect crust, fresh toppings and a good sauce.  Maybe we are too picky!

Next time we will try Aldape's or the new Mario's Pizza in the mall.
