The Best Pizza in Montreal - MHA member Frank Giammaria has been making

Pat Manley recently built a kitchen

Here is the picture of my bake oven.
Our bakery is going so well.
Last Saturday we sold out 30 pizza at the Saturday evening market.
Of course I baked by wood fire.
Every day my wife Shuko is baking 10kg wheat flour and selling out
in a short time.
We will increase products little by little.
But we will keep making hand made bread.
