If you're looking for something casual and local that won't be full of other people reading downtown maps, this little Gastown hideaway is sublime. The 22 pizza combinations are served on fresh, crispy crusts baked in an old wood-fired oven. Pastas are homemade, and you're encouraged to mix and match -- try the mussels with spinach fettuccine, capers, and tomatoes in lime butter. The wine list is decent; the beer list is inspired. And now, there's a patio. Sunday night features all-you-can-eat pizza for C$8 (US$6). Much to the delight of Kitsilano residents, a second location with a slightly larger menu has opened up next to the Fifth Avenue movie theatre at 2118 Burrard (tel. 604/736-2220).
