| - OMG!!!!!!!!!!! I CAN EAT PIZZA IN TORONTO AGAIN!!!!!
Tonight was a crazy night, which consisted of being fitted for a fashion show, rehearsal, make-up and waiting eons backstage for the show to start at a King St. W lounge. Prior to all the madness at the lounge, the models and I took a dinner break near the lounge. We wanted pizza (YES, models eat carbs!) so the majority of us went to Pizza Pizza, which was 2 doors down from the lounge. I decided that I didn't want pizza from the pizza giant, so I asked a model to come with me across the street to Pizzaiolo... a pizza joint that I'd never been to and seemingly better than Pizza Pizza. I was secretly hoping that they might have/ make me a slice of cheeseless pizza (like my beloved 2001 Flavours in VanCity... I MISS YOU BC!). To my surprise, they have THREE types of vegan, cheeseless pizza:
1. Whole Wheat Diana -mushrooms, spinach, herbed tomatoes, zucchini and olive oil
2. Fredo -yukon gold potatoes, olive oil, fresh rosemary and oregano
3. Vittoria -herbed tomatoes, zucchini, roasted red peppers and their famous Pizzaiolo Sauce
I chose the Diana ($4.19, taxes included) and it was awesome: The whole wheat crust was thin and had a good texture, quantity of the veggies (spinach in particular) was generous, and the quality of the veggies was superb. It was not bad for a re-heated pizza. It's definitely better than Cora's vegan pizza -which until today was my fave place for pizza in Toronto because of its 1 vegan pizza selection.
Although Pizzaiolo has certainly impressed me with having THREE regular vegan pizzas and has made me very happy, reheated pizza slices still does not beat a freshly baked pizza slice, made upon request, with all the veggie toppings I want... all just for me at $1.50. Oh, how I've miss you 2001 Flavours.... the reason why I only eat pizza in Vancouver. I LOVE BC!
**The Cavs were at the lounge I was modeling at tonight. I asked one of them if there was a game tonight and he said no, it's tomorrow. He also said they're gonna beat the Raps! How arrogant! I hope the Raptors school them tomorrow night! GOOOOO Raptors!
