Aladdin's Pizza - Chez Sophie
This Adventure in Dining was quite well attended with our group taking over pretty much the entire restaurant. Food was great and the service excellent. This former pizza joint has been revamped with the arrival of new owners Sophie and Stéphane from Alsace, France.

A fresh coat of green and yellow paint now gives the place a French bistro flair with large sunflowers highlighting the south wall and an antique wooden chair looms on the north-east corner of the ceiling. This restaurant has always been a favourite with the College Universitaire de St.Boniface students at lunch time and a popular pizza delivery joint for St.Boniface residents.

In order to maintain this clientele, the owners have kept some of the existing items on the menu with a few notable additions. Cream-based pizzas smothered with Brie or goat cheese and French specialties such as tartiflette (a dish similar to scalloped potatoes), steak and fries, and fried camembert are offered on the regular menu and on Saturday evenings a set menu offers a full course French meal.

This should be called ADVENTURE in Dining.

When more evenings are posted it can rightfully be called ADVENTURES in Dining.

Seriously though . . we love the website and really appreciate the organizing of the evenings!
