Pizza in Vancouver




Daena and I arrived in Vancouver this morning. After checking in at the hotel, we wandered around the neighborhood and stumbled upon a place called Lombardo's. How could we resist pizza in Canada! The Pizza Tour's first stop outside of the US. The place was quite nice and quiet and they have a gas fired brick oven. We ordered a medium Pizza Margherita (30cm diameter) Bring on the metric system! The pie was very good and definitely satisfied our hunger. The sauce to cheese ratio was way too low for my liking and perhaps a bit more fresh basil would have been nice but otherwise it gets a thumbs up. I'm a long way from NYC but it is always great to have some pie. Vancouver is beautiful thus far. Tomorrow we set sail for Alaska!
