Libretto absolutely sucks. Some of the worst, most basic corporate Italian food I’ve ever tried. Gotta be the most inconsistent pizza dough. So many better Neopolitan style pizzas in this city.

>CookUnity, a US-based subscription meal delivery service that partners with established chefs to offer ready-to-eat meals, is [launching in Canada this month](https://www.cookunity.com/en-ca/coming-soon), starting in Ontario.
>Canadian operations are being led by Michael Baruch and Morley Ivers, the duo behind Cookin’, a Toronto-based platform launched in 2022 to help independent chefs sell meals directly to customers. CookUnity acquired Cookin’ last year.
>For now, ready-to-heat meals will be prepared in a 25,000-square-foot commercial kitchen near Yorkdale Mall, with deliveries across the province beginning June 1. Plans to expand to other provinces are already in the works.
>Kriss (Alo, Aloette, Aloette Go) and Agostino (Pizzeria Libretto, Enoteca Sociale) are part of the platform’s initial Canadian roster of 11 chefs, which also includes Hemant Bhagwani of Bar Goa, Dadrian Coke of Chubby’s Jamaican Kitchen, and Trevor Lui, formerly of Kanpai Snack Bar.
The rest of it is an interview with Kirss and Agostino. It’s a good piece and interesting evolution for the fine dining market — chefs are clearly starting to realize like car makers have always known, that you have to sell a bunch of civics and accords if your passion is really selling NSX’s.
