Although Toronto was graced with the original 1 IL FORNELLO, Oakville received its taste of Italy two 1 1 years ago, and has been enjoying it ever since. "Our customers in Oakville are very discerning," says § | | Ian Sorbie, President of IL FORNELLO (currently a chain 1 B of eight restaurants), "they have a good knowledge of food | if and wine and can appreciate the variety and quality of both § | that we offer." IL FORNELLO began a$ a restaurant that specialized in 1 fl gourmet, thin crust pizza, prepared in an authentic wood bum- v D ing oven. In 1985, Sorbie, along with his business partner Tony * | | Rago, were in New York researching design ideas for a restau- A H rant they planned to open. They stumbled upon an entree peogj pie were enjoying across the city: gourmet, thin crust pizza, a f j j tasty phenomenon unknown across the border. So along with % 1some design ideas, they also brought home what would become , * the original gourmet, thin crust pizza available in Toronto. IL FORNELLO has never compromised on quality and uses I only the freshest of ingredients. As well the gourmet pizza that j i originally made them famous, they are also well-known for * I their delicious pastas and, unlike any other restaurant IL FOR- ; I NELLO offers a fabulous alternative menu for people with spe- 1 cial dietary needs, including Celiac disease. As well, to meet the demands of tight schedules and hearty appetites, they offer an "All-You-Can-Enjoy" lunch buffet, Tuesday to Friday, for Ijust $8.95. The menu has something scrumptious for everyone ; and, while the weather is still warm and sunny, these great meals can be enjoyed on the large EL FORNELLO patio. For those of you who regularly enjoy their gourmet, thin crust pizza, IL FORNELLO is pleased to announce that they are introducing their own line of frozen pizzas in September. 1 They will be available in the upscale grocery store, Pussateri's, in Toronto, and on www.grocerygateway.com, as well as other grocery stores to be announced in the future. From the decor, to the unparalleled service, to the food, IL FORNELLO stands above the rest, demonstrating a genuine commitment to their customers. Perhaps this explains why they have been revered as Toronto's `Best Italian Restaurant', and why we Oakvillians keep going-back for more. In conjunction with their support of the Toronto Film Festival, IL FORNELLO customers now have a chance to win IL FORNELLO dinners, tickets to the Closing Night Festivities of The Toronto International Film Festival or, the grand prize of a trip to the New York Film Festival Opening Night Gala.
