YuMMy – Boston Pizza’s Kitchen Managers’ Favourites

Allow us to introduce Boston Pizza’s hard-working and dedicated Kitchen Managers, Daniel Wiley and Felino Ruelo. Both gentlemen have worked at Boston Pizza in Fort McMurray for over 10 years now.

What they love most about this industry, and their jobs, are the people they work with and the friendly guests that come through the doors. Felino said he has a special bond with his BP team stating, “Boston Pizza is my family.”

We have put together a few menu options based on our managers’ favourite meals. They both love spice, but we know it’s not always favoured by little ones, so you can opt for anything you desire to satisfy everyone’s taste buds.

Or better yet, pop into our Fort McMurray kid-friendly restaurants and have the family choose their favourites like our pint-sized pizza, chicken fingers, Bugs ‘n’ Cheese and much more. All Kids Meals are $7.99 and come with an activity pack and a create-your-own sundae.
