- chongli 1y agoHere in Ontario English we call that pizza deluxe!
- nucleardog 1y agoDepends where in Ontario! I'm in Ontario but in a heavily French area (i.e., East of Ottawa) and "toute garni / all dressed" is common. You'll find it places like Ottawa as well given the proximity to Quebec and French population.
- fracus 1y agoThat is what OP said. "All dressed" is a direct translation from French.
- olalonde 1y agoYes, they both refer to the same pizza. Many francophones actually say "une pizza all dress" - it refers to that specific combination of toppings though, not literally every available topping.
- lynguist 1y agoDo you call “tomato sauce” “red sauce”?
- ShroudedNight 1y agoI can't speak authoritatively for the OP, but yes, I would expect red sauce to be tomato-based. Compare with "sauce brune" [brown sauce ~= gravy] which is what gets put on poutine.
- BunsanSpace 1y agoWhich is funny because that translates to "fully garnished" not "all dressed". Tabarnac
- cwillu 1y agoIMO that's a mistranslation; “stuffed with everything” would be more accurate.
