When I retired some 12 years ago I had been fortunate enough to find a little island community (Oona River) about 26 miles southwest of Prince Rupert, British Columbia to spend my summers at and escape the heat of my California town. Oona River is a very small island community that has no restaurants, although it has several facilities available for a daily, weekly, monthly stay. I might as well mention that while you wander around the Oona community you'll have the opportunity to see any number of types of wildlife, aquatic and birds (fortunately no bears on the island). But back to why I rated Vihaan's Pizzeria 5 stars. As with many people one of my favorite foods is pizza! Sadly Prince Rupert has been lacking in that department. So by the time I come from my "little cabin by the sea" at Oona River (I don't come into town until it's time to leave the river) it's usually been close to 7 months since I had a pizza and I'm usually jonesing pretty hard for one. I had heard from several of my Canadian friends that a new pizzeria had opened in town in the old Zorba's restaurant. So last night when I arrived in town, I checked into the Prince Rupert Prestige hotel, dropped my bags in the room and immediately went across the street to Vihaan's Pizzeria. I walked up to the ordering desk and told the fella behind the counter that I had heard they make a decent pizza and that they only had 1 chance to impress me. I have to admit that I actually was somewhat impressed immediately when I asked if they have green olives, which most pizza places these days don't offer. He told me they do, so I preceded to order my favorite combination pizza, which I'm told by my friends that they consider bizarre ( anchovies cooked under the cheese, green olives, and jalapeno's )The fella (Amrit was his name, and as I found out later is the manager) said he was personally going to build my pizza, and that he would have it ready in 10 minutes. He did and it was! I hurried back to my hotel room, opened the box, enjoyed the initial waft of hot pizza and grabbed a slice. Bottom line is that it is by far the best pizza I've ever had in Prince Rupert and rivals most of the best pizzas I've had anywhere in North America. And they are open to 1am which is unique in this part of the province! I've since discovered that they also have thin crust, which is my actual favorite. I will be standing in front of the manager ordering another of their offerings in the very near future, like this afternoon. Give them a try, I doubt you'll be disappointed!!
