Garbonzo's was good when the original owner (John Hewlet?) had the chain.

Unfortunately it got caught up in the Pizza price wars in Winnipeg and went under. At that time he had 6 or 7 different locations in Winnipeg. The one on Regent kept the Garbonzo's name for a bit as the store general manager bought that location from the receiver then changed the name over to CC Biggs with the same staff and most of the same menu items.

A few years later he sold the name (not sure how he kept that with the financial problems) and concept to Canad Inns and they have modified it since.
