There were 25 entries in all. The contestants had come for all over the whole country.<br \/>\nJoe knew he had made a great pizza. As far as he was concerned, he thought it would be good enough for 3rd place.<br \/>\nWhen the winner of 3rd place was announced he was a little disappoint but he thought, well maybe 2nd place.<br \/>\nWhen he did not win for 2nd place, he was a little disappointed and he decided to pack up all of his stuff and head home.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s when the winner was announced and he won <strong>First Place for the Best Canadian Pizza<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>In the following Interview, Joe explains how he entered the contest which was sponsored by a Canadian Pizza Magazine.<\/p>\n<p>He has been making pizza at his pizzeria,<strong> Amadio&#8217;s<\/strong> located in the Greater <strong>Toronto<\/strong> area since 1975. He explains there have been many ups and downs since then. But the one thing he will not sacrifice on is the quality of ingredients when he makes pizza.<\/p>\n<p>He says that you must dedicate yourself to the craft of making pizza but he also says he needs to shut down every year for his own vacation. He understands the importance of taking care of yourself in the pizza business. He is works many hours a day to keep on top of his business.<\/p>\n<p>The following interview was recorded at <strong>Pizza Expo<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7XqoNuhlfmQ\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Amadio&#8217;s Pizza<\/strong><br \/>\n360 Revus Ave., Unit 6<br \/>\nPort Credit\/Mississauga<br \/>\n905-891-5500<br \/>\nWebsite: <a href=\"http:\/\/amadiospizza.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/amadiospizza.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in Pizza Expo you can go to:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/pizzaexpo.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pizza Expo<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1024 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/legendsofpizza.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/pizza-expo.jpg\" alt=\"Pizza Therapy supports the Pizza Expo\" width=\"233\" height=\"82\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shareasale.com\/r.cfm?b=728225&amp;u=127091&amp;m=59198&amp;urllink=&amp;afftrack=\">Deal of the Day: $1675<br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shareasale.com\/r.cfm?b=728225&amp;u=127091&amp;m=59198&amp;urllink=&amp;afftrack=\">Huge 42cf 2dr Display Cooler: $1675<br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shareasale.com\/r.cfm?b=728225&amp;u=127091&amp;m=59198&amp;urllink=&amp;afftrack=\">Brand New, Free Ship, 5YR Warranty!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shareasale.com\/r.cfm?b=728215&amp;u=127091&amp;m=59198&amp;urllink=&amp;afftrack=\">Wood-Fired Pizza Ovens<br \/>\n6 Exciting New Models Just Arrived!<br \/>\nAll-Stainless or Black: $1695-$7195<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sunfrog.com\/widget\/sfwidget.cfm?44767&amp;ct=&amp;key=&amp;btn=1&amp;btntxt=Buy Now&amp;col=14288\" width=\"250\" height=\"350\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Joe Leroux was awarded Canadian Pizza Maker of the Yrear for 2016.
