Running from war is hard enough. Starting over in a new country? Even harder. Starting a new business while raising a baby? That’s next level.
But that’s exactly what Oleksii Samokhval and Iryna Mehedyn have done with the opening of Crusty Craft Pizza in Transcona.
The couple arrived in Canada separately from Ukraine in 2022, escaping the Russian invasion of their homeland.
They met at a Winnipeg hotel housing Ukrainian newcomers, fell in love and plan to marry soon. They’re also raising a 15 month old daughter named Maia.
And somewhere between all that life-changing chaos, they started making pizza.
First on their backyard BBQ for friends…now at their own pizza joint at 1311 Day St. in Old Transcona.
And it’s not just any pizza either.
Thin, hand-rolled, European-style pies with fresh mozzarella and toppings straight out of Italy.
They even travelled to Naples for a month to visit family and learn pizza secrets from locals.
That passion now shows up at Crusty Craft.
And with your support, Oleksii and Iryna are building a new life together in Winnipeg…one pizza at a time.
That might just be the best ingredient of all.

Seeing as how I now have my Hal’s Kitchen show on CJOB, as well as a column of the same name in the Sun, I thought I’d give @UberEats a try. Actually, I gave it two shots and both failed. The other night, my food was on the way and my order was cancelled. Then today, I tried getting Chinese food delivered for Mother’s Day and the order wouldn’t even go through. I ended up phoning the restaurant and I’ll pick up our dinner. Anyone else having problems like this with Uber Eats? We use both Skip and DoorDash occasionally with no issues. #Winnipeg

Tipping fatigue has reached a tipping point.
According to a recent survey, two-thirds of Canadians say they should scrap it altogether.
A massive 93% are annoyed by tip prompts, and 89% resent businesses that ask.
That’s a full-blown backlash.
People aren’t just tired of tipping…they’re questioning the whole thing.
Some businesses are starting to take action.
In the Morden-Winkler area, Chris Unrau at Waypoint Coffee ditched tipping entirely after hearing the same thing from customers and even staff, “tipping culture has gotten away from us.”
The fix wasn’t just removing the prompt; it was replacing it.
Higher wages, plus a points-based system so employees aren’t, as he puts it, “just hoping” a customer rewards them.
Same idea in Winnipeg at Barc BBQ, where David Neinstein has long argued tipping is “an unfair system.”
His model trades the highs and lows of tip income for something steadier and more predictable.
And then there’s Vince Morley at The Bonfire.
He’s taking it a step further.
No tips, a minimum of $20 an hour, and 50% profit sharing with staff.
Different approaches, but the signal is the same: customers are over it and businesses are finally reacting.
