New Dining Dimensions
Where Pizza Remains The King

T

here is something about spaghetti, ravioli, mostaccioli, piz-

a pizzeria which in in-
stances such as this can
conjure magical illusions
that turn out to be the real
things.
The key dining word at one
like Buddy's is pizza ... there's no
denying this ... And heaven for-
bid anybody taking away an im-
age that has such a time-honored
and revered background.
But progress will always pre-
vail ... and it is the smart restau-
rateur that recognizes this.
Which, my friends, is a prime
reason why Buddy's on North-
western Highway and Middle-
belt is becoming known more as
Buddy's Restaurant and Pizze-
ria.
Items now include macaroni
pasta smothered in a five-cheese
cheddar blend and oven-baked ...
vegetarian manicotti with pasta
tubes full of ricotta, carrots,
spinach, broccoli, garlic, onions
and seasonings in a marinara
sauce ... delicious turkey cutlet,
etc.
Also added are more soups to
accompany the excel-
lent minestrone and
cream of broccoli ... New
England clam chowder
and chunky vegetable.
There are sandwich
es like chargrilled sea-
soned Italian meatloaf
smothered in marinara
sauce, topped with pro-
volone cheese and
served on an onion roll
... breast of chicken mar-
inated in honey Dijon
sauce, chargrilled and
topped with havarti
cheese on a multi-grain
bun ... chicken breast
marinated in Italian
dressing ... barbecued
chicken breast mari-
nated and chargrilled.
Mozzarella sticks,
gourmet onion rings,
buffalo wings, seasoned
chips, spagettini, penne
rigate, cheese tortelloni,
etc.
All have joined in to
catapult Buddy's into another di-
mension of dining ... One where
pizza may be the big thing, but a
more diversified menu now en-
ables folks to dine with much
more satisfactory selection.
On March 1, 1982, when Bud-
dy's Pizza opened at the former
site of the Great Dane ... also tak-
ing over the liquor license ... it
was a good place for plain fami-
ly fare like Greek salad, an-
tipasto, hamburgers, hoagies,
