StoosNews Spotlight: Check Out The Business Beat This Week Featuring Agave By Imperial, Loaded Pierogi, The Pizza Factory and EDH Law

PTBOCanada is delighted to be running StoosNews columns each week here, spotlighting new businesses and startups in Peterborough and the Kawarthas. Here is this week’s edition…

As we kick off a new year of Business Beat columns, Stu Harrison wanted to circle back to two new restaurants that opened recently.

Agave by Imperial opened at the beginning of December at 376 George Street in Downtown Peterborough.

The extensive menu features three full pages of traditional Mexican dishes, including vegan and gluten-free options, prepared in innovative ways, as well as a full-service bar, of course serving margaritas, tequilas, cocktails and more. Owners Jim Grover and Manish Choudhry also own the Imperial Tandoor on Lansdowne Street.

Loaded Pierogi opened in November at 1135 Lansdowne St. in the Parkway Plaza. The franchise restaurant offers a stunning variety of Pierogi’s, from BBQ Brisket to the Hardcore Herbivore, as well as mac and cheese and poutine. They also offer catering. Watch for a second location in East City sometime this year.

Speaking of restaurants, how about a tip of the hat to Peter and Anna Bouzinelos from the Pizza Factory, who recently announced that they will be closing after 42 years in business.

Talk about a landmark and a legacy… Congratulations to everyone in the Pizza Factory family.

Walker Law is under new ownership. Nathan Higgins of the firm Evans de Vries Higgins (EDH Law) has taken over Doug Walkers practice, with Doug to remain as counsel to EDH Law until sometime this year.

Serving the Peterborough area since 1974, Doug has clocked nearly 50 years and three generations of providing legal services to clients and friends! Over those years Walker Law also assumed the practices of James Fitzpatrick and Gordon Usher. The highly experienced Walker Law staff, including Partner Jenivieve de Vries and Lawyer Carly Ladouceur, will continue with EDH Law at their long-standing location at 243 Hunter St.W.
