This off-the-beaten-track culinary competition involves 12 future restaurateurs who must complete challenges judged by real customers in order to win $50,000 to open their own restaurant.
Finally, Stratos Pizzéria launched a lawsuit against Pizzeria Salvatoré because of a telephone number that was a little too identical to their taste. More precisely, it is an originating application for an interlocutory and permanent injunction summoning the defense to change the telephone number of its branch on boulevard Jean-XXIII in Trois-Rivières. Both phone numbers end with the same four digits. Stratos believes that the risk of confusion among consumers is great while Salvatoré defends himself by saying that he receives very few orders by phone, the majority of customers now ordering online via the application.
