Verdicchio is now a ‘Certified Taste of Ontario’ Restaurant

Verdicchio Ristorante | Enoteca’s passion for local food has earned it the Feast On ‘Certified Taste of Ontario’  designation.

Verdicchio joins other restaurants across Ontario in the certification program that recognizes businesses committed to sourcing Ontario grown and made food and drink.

Supporting the local economy,  Northern Ontario and province-wide growers and farmers is important to Verdicchio and many other establishments across Ontario.

The Culinary Tourism Alliance states a Feast On certification proves “you’re fighting the good fight.” It lets customers know that by choosing your restaurant, they’re supporting the food system too.

The application process is open at all Ontario restaurants, caterers and experiences.
