Wonderdog in Peoria closed down shortly after I did a Steering Wheel Meal from there a couple weeks ago. Some people on facecrack jokingly (I think) blamed me for the closure after my bad review of them because they bungled my order up that day and the food wasn’t too good. Okay, it was downright horrific.
In spite of that, I thought we’d return to the scene of that food crime and try out the food at the neighboring restaurant, 460° Pizza.
And so it’s off we go to 460° Pizza!

The Sunday Steering Wheel Meal - This Week: 460° Pizza
There’s this week’s Steering Wheel Meal order that I placed online.
There’s the MBIP Mobile parked in our space for this week’s meal.
There’s a sad sight, it’s the Wonderdog restaurant that is now empty. We’ll see what goes into that space, if it’s another restaurant we’ll have to do a Steering Wheel Meal from there.
Right next door is The Last Hurrah, which was the 9th stop on our 365 tour. Wow, it doesn’t seem like that was over nine months ago! Time flies when you’re bar hopping!
Here we are at this week’s SSWM destination: 460° Pizza.
I went in and picked up the order and now it’s back to the MBIP Mobile we go.
Here we are back at the MBIP Mobile and the shadow knows that!
Okay, the radio is tuned to 93.3 The Drive and “Cherish” by Madonna is playing. I haven’t heard that song in a long time and I forgot how much I liked it. If you haven’t heard it, keep on scrolling and it’ll greet you at the end of this post.
It’s also my Marty Morning Song on Bluesky, if you follow me there.
The fan is turned off and here’s the view from the driver’s seat.
And now it’s time to put the steering wheel tray in place for this week’s meal!

The Sunday Steering Wheel Meal
There’s the bag of food and it’s now on the steering wheel tray, let’s dig in!

The Drink
I got an unsweetened iced tea and this week the ice machine was working. Hooray!

Course Number One: The Side Dish: A Small Order of French Fries with a Tub of Melted Cheese
I got a small order of French Fries for my side dish and they were thicker than I prefer and a little on the soggy side. Not good, so I abandoned them after the first couple of fries.
Let’s just keep moving along here!
——
Course Number Two: The Main Dish: Chicken Wings
I got a six piece order of chicken wings with their Honey BBQ sauce for the main dish this week.
They weren’t horrible, but they weren’t that great either. The wings were small, the sauce was a little too sweet and not enough barbecue flavor and they were a little on the dry side.
I did have an idea on how to make them a little better though…
I had some of the melted cheese sauce left from the fries that I didn’t finish so I dunked a wing in that and it was better, but still not great.
Time to keep moving along here and hope that we end up on a tasty note!

Course Number Three: The Dessert: A Peanut Butter Chip Dessert Pizza
For dessert I got the Peanut Butter Chip dessert pizza and it looks promising! It’s covered in vanilla icing and peanut butter chips. Let’s try out a slice and see if it’s as sweet as it looks!
Wow, this is a sweet and delicious treat!
There’s a layer of sweet peanut butter frosting beneath the vanilla icing and the peanut butter chips and it is sweet and so flavorful!
The crust is thin and crisp, just the way I like it. This dessert pizza saved this week’s Sunday Steering Wheel Meal!
Once again, I forgot the rear-view mirror shot, but I found this black and white one online and thought it would be a nice final shot for this post and so here it is. So there!
