| - Welcome home, Nova Scotia girl. Welcome home.
There really isn't anything like a taste of home when you're so far away from it. This is the only Pizza Delight west of Ontario.
The owners are from Summerside, P.E.I., and probably understand the profit possibilities of bringing this New Brunswick-based chain out to the city filled with ex-pat Maritimers.
I worked in a Pizza Delight when I was 17, so I'm familiar with the menu. It has barely changed in 20 years and the Evergreen menu is authentic.
What's better? The donair sauce is authentic. Although Pizza Delight doesn't have the best donair sauce in Nova Scotia (ahem ... King's), it is the best you can find in Calgary.
I corralled a couple of Nova Scotia girls and a handful of other friends and went for garlic fingers. I'll let Spencer and Chelsea share their own experiences but the three Bluenosers were quite sated and satisfied.
What are garlic fingers? Pizza dough slathered in garlic butter, doused in mozzarella, sprinkled with Parmesan and showered with love.
Then you dip them in the donair sauce. Oh. My. God.
There will be another trip in the future because as Dee mentioned, the French onion soup - if it's the same as I remember - is divine.
Garlic fingers and donair sauce, French onion soup and a pepperoni, mushroom and pineapple panzerotti.
Feast for a princess, right there.
