In Calgary, as in Montreal, the pizza joints are run by Greeks, not Italians. Ottawa fares better despite a shortage of actual paesanos; they are served by the Lebanese - still not as good as real Italian style, but a bit closer..,
Howie's is typical - heavy, dense crusts, over-sweet oddly-spiced sauce - edible, but far less than excellent.
And as is typical in Calgary, expensive. Why do take-out joints here think they can charge as much as sit-down service restaurants?
