There’s just something magically delicious about eating sneaky bites from a top-secret resto – especially if that tasty treat is covered in cheese! This week, those willing to put their investigative skills to the test are encouraged to check out SUNDAY PIE, a brand new Detroit-style pizza joint hidden in plain sight where hungry Calgarians can sink their teeth into slices piled high with toppings and dripping with sauce.

Created by a ragtag group that includes a lawyer, peace officer, marketing professional, and realtor – SUNDAY PIE is unlike anything else in the downtown area.

“My day job is strictly business – I’m out and about with commercial real estate clients and generally keeping things pretty professional,” said John Vautour, one-quarter of SUNDAY PIE’s team of founders.

“With SUNDAY PIE, I have the opportunity to leverage all the skills I’ve gained working in commercial real estate and mix them up with a personal passion for creating unique things in the kitchen. Building this business has been such an interesting journey.”

This alley-way spot is a collaborative venture that blends passion and experience with whimsy and of course, fresh ingredients. Although trying to find it without a little guidance can be difficult, pizza connoisseurs are encouraged to set on a delicious journey that will no doubt end in pillowy dough, crispy edges and a flavour profile for every palate.

Located behind the Wednesday Room on Stephen Avenue, this unconventional space is open for pickup on Sundays – so pre-order now and check them out.

Who knows you might just find love in your first bite!
