Buddha Pie, located at 514B Annette Street, Toronto, Ontario (High Park area) of Toronto, is proud to have been voted fifth "Best NEW RESTAURANT IN TORONTO - 2009" by BlogTO. End Quote

(1888PressRelease) August 12, 2010 - As featured on Rogers Television's TORONTO DINING hosted by Chef Therese De Grace, Buddha Pie prepares gourmet 'Po' Boy' Sandwiches and authentic, simple Neapolitan thin-crust pizzas made from scratch using only the finest ingredients - featuring meats from notable neighbor Butcher by Nature.

According to BlogTO, "The best new restaurants in Toronto all have a few things in common. Kitchens for one. These restaurants also apparently share a common thread of lunacy in their restaurateurs. That said, many of these restaurants also share an ethos that definitely doesn't rely on the currently dwindling level of corporate expense accounts to succeed."

Both co-owners, John Allatt and Cyndy Abel identified their gratitude and appreciation. "Any exposure is both welcome and appreciated. We're just really glad people are enjoying the food."

Buddha Pie's belief in transparency is also evidenced by the way they engage their loyal customers using social media. They're active on Facebook and Twitter (/eatbuddhapie) and extend incentives and offers frequently. Buddha Pie's "Po'Boy and Pizza Pie" menu is also only up on Facebook. John Allatt explains, "We're really trying to build a community; a tribe of locals who like and gather around great simple food. Facebook is the perfect tool to keep us connected."

Of their Top Ten New Restaurants, BlogTO furthered "They all share passionate, uncompromising operators who believe they owe their patrons nothing less than their best every night and at a reasonable price point. The western edge of the Junction represents with the inclusion of a pizza joint that takes their pie back to first principles and builds a simple tasty, classic slice (which sadly contains no actual Buddha). Walk in through the door and ask them to make one with everything, I dare you!"
