Living in Toronto's Little Italy, I'm never a stone's throw away from many a fantastic pizza joint. Names like Libretto, Bitondo and Terroni immediately come to mind.
But on a frigid winter Saturday evening, my mates and I decided to roll the dice (it was board game night, so pun is intended) on some delivery pies. Enter FBI Pizza: The city's newest take-out and delivery spot situated out in south Etobicoke with major buzz about it's no-nonsense quality ingredients and gourmet toppings.
We ordered two of the standard thin crust "Big" pies with mushrooms and caramelized onions on one and hot soppressata salami on the other. Delivery was quick, probably about 30 mins from my call to my friend's apartment at King & Bathurst.
Upon consumption we were thrown for quite a loop...because these pies were among the best (deilvery) thin crust pizzas any of us had tasted in the city. The caramelized onion & mushroom pie in particular was heavenly, with creamy fior-de-latte mozzarella and tangy but not bitter tomato sauce blending beautifilly with sweet, thinly sliced onions & earthy mushrooms. The thickness of the crust as well amazed; not too thin, but substantial enough to satiate us. Almost like an upgraded version of a Mamma's Pizza pie.
Do yourself a favor and call up the FBI - Full Blooded Italians - if you're looking for a decent delivery option at a reasonable price (two of their regular pizzas with aforementioned toppings for $35 including tip). The name might be gimmicky, but the pizza is sublime.
