DINER: Pies Tested & Ready, Anticipated “Pizzeria Farina” To Open This Wednesday

Portrait

Pizzeria Farina, the new pizza joint (delivery by bicycle) landing at Main and Prior in Strathcona, will open its doors on Wednesday, August 17th. Here’s the word: “Everything is near completion and [chef] J.C. Poirier and his team are excited to start serving their classic Italian-inspired pizza. The pizzeria will open at 5PM and will close when the dough runs out.” Can’t hardly wait. In the interim, should it be your thing, you can follow them on Twitter and “like” them on Facebook. Don’t mind me if I just sit here drooling at the photo after the jump (look at that crust!)…

Reverence, Respect, and Realization: What The Acorn Taught Me

At 21 years old, I'm still just a kid and relatively new to working in restaurants, but I grew up umbilically tied to the hospitality industry. My father was a food writer, and my mother is a photographer. Their careers meant that most of my early years were spent in kitchens and dining rooms instead of on playgrounds and soccer fields; consequently, I learned my table manners before I could count past one hundred.
