TP Entertainment Newmarket Events March 2014

Maybe I should have been a juggler. It's entertaining, and seems I do that with most everything in life anyway so why not? Right now I'm juggling whether to make posters for the road hockey event so I can print them and get them out tomorrow, or to work on special table talker menus and invites for the Mar 26 Grand Opening of Col Mustards' Ladies Night entitled, Girls GoGo Wild Wednesdays? Hey, how else can you dress up a Wed night!? Ha. Anyway on top of that, there are the logistics of the budget or lack there of for the costs of the youth event, and tying up little things like press releases and vendors, and oh yea a little matter of having players for the event that until recently had no location to call home for 2104.

Looking for B4play Lady Hosts & presenters of products, services

It's a long story why the Annual Friendly Youth Road hockey Tourney has had a tough go this year, but come hell or high water there will be game play! Ha. The emphasis for tyhis event in the past has always been participation and not compettition and will continuue to be so for 2104 whith the emphasis on getting the whole family out to play. Game play goes  Sat March 15 10:30 am - 5 pm. Pre register team or on site.

NEW LOCATION: There will be some friendly "tourney" play at the new 395 Mulock Dr ( Town of Newmarket offices) location but there will also be ample opportunities for anyone - including mom and or Dad  to play a bit of road hockey and maybe have some hot chocolate and hot vittles with Newmarket's Piccola Italia providing the food services. Bring a stick if you can or one will be lent.

LOCATION: The Night before, Fri Mar 14 at 8:30 pm, there is also an Opening Face Off Party at Big Daddy's 446 Davis Dr Newmarket, held as a FUND RAISER for the FNY Road Hockey Challenge Youth Award - the Mike Thornhill Friendship Award - given a youth showing leadership in the community. The Opening Face off party is a licensed party, traditionally mostly for the adults, like organizers, volunteers, and members of the public featuring live entertainment, including for 2014, Vocalist Keyboard Whiz - formerly of the band North of 7 - Carl Braund, as well as Psychedelic Country Rockers Clean Fill Wanted, Reggae Country-Rock sensations The Yappers, and Hip Hoppers end the night off hosted by the way cool Krhyme Syndicate.Tickets only $5 at the door.

The next TPE DryDance Production is also upcoming Sat Mar 29 for which I've yet to think of the monthly events theme let alone make a poster!

Meantime, I'm also juggling whether to pursue some blog activities for other business types and services whilst maintaining a pulse on my daughter's schooling / needs - having a tumor in her leg, painful, and unable to be removed. Makes one understand that as long as we have our health we may be okay, but one never knows. So, meantime, juggling it shall be, until the pins begin to drop! Gulp! Then I'll be in trouble.

The doorbell just rang and the slapshot radar equipment is here! Now this will be a fun activity! Ha, maybe I'll bring it out to both events as a funds raiser tool! See you on the streets! Until Next Time!

TP Out!

Tom's Top 10 Pizza Choices Newmarket Guide Listing

A Slice of heaven from Piccola

It was only a natural that Tom's Top 10 would tackle pizza choices. Tom's first job in the restaurant business was with Pat & Marios Restaurants at their first ever store located on Ravel Road in Toronto Ontario and first main claim to fame in the kitchen, before become Kitchen Manager, was the pizza flipper! TP was the fastest in the house, trained by the original management from the Mother's Pizza chain which was all owned by Yesac Corporation - Caseys spelt backwards - another "chain" restaurant-bar they owned.

Pat & Mario's restaurants were actually the first of their kind as a chain restaurant in Canada to combine family dining with a DJ / dancing - also having a bar and dance floor area that kicked in about 9:30 pm - preceding Pete & Marty's, Mr Grumpps and the rest.they specialized in Italian and Irish cuisine!

Tom's Original Top 10

But back to pizza! We took great pride in prepping the dough, adding just the right amount of yeast and allowing for overnight proof time so the pizza pies were absolutely perfecto! We used a conveyor type oven so they went in one side and out the other done, cut, and thrown up in the window with the P&M's signature mix of grated mozzarella and brick cheese's part of the secret to their popularity.

Later on P&M's opened locations at Yonge & Eglinton, Front & Church and Airport strip and TP worked with the Executive Chefs at the original parent store, assisting in coming up with and trying new menu items including the addition of 'gourmet" wood oven pizzas - individual pizzas made with a "pastry-dough". Mmm..goat cheese, artichoke hearts, sundried tomato! Crisp snap off to the bite! Ahh..Memories!

Tom's Top 10 Pizza Newmarket takes into account selection, service, freshness, variety, consistency, value and taste. They are in no particular order as Tom recommends any of them depending on the mood!
