St Lawrence Market

It sounds like a retreat from the market without actually saying it.

To be fair, they’re now on one of the lowest density lots in several blocks. I imagine the lot will be upsized before it sees any new tenants.

When the pizza machine opened up and they installed a few tables, I thought it would be a lot better than before, when it was the personal parking spot for the owner of the furniture store that was there. Sadly, didn't work out. I lived right next to it and only got pizza once. It was not nearly as good as Bellisimos.

I might have tried it but the reviews weren't raving, and we have so many other pizza options within about 10 minutes walking distance: Pi Co and Gusto 501 are my favourites, but there's also Bellisimos, Spaccio, Ardo, Cafe Oro, Uncle Tony's, Amano, District Pizza in the Distillery, that Italian place in the St. Lawrence Market. And the the chains are around too: Pizza Nova (actually pretty good), Pizza Pizza, Pizza Hut. Probably others I've missed. When Motorino Citta, Fusaro's and Mangi & Bevi were nearby the pizza options were even more insane. In retrospect, their closings might have been an omen that even though most people love pizza, they can only eat so much of the damn stuff.

Though it REALLY surprised me, I was introduced to Metro pizza last week and it is surprisingly good. They make it at the 'prepared food counter' and have three or four varieties - surprisingly good!

I've had it too, and it's quite passable. Better than most of the places where you can get a slice to go.

Pizza Forno is a little better than a frozen pizza from the grocery store. They have to make it better if they're going to really make it.
