Description:
THE "REBIRTH" OF OUR FAMILY PIZZERIA FROM THE 80'S IN WISCONSIN. WE OPENED OUR FAMILY PIZZERIA IN TUCSON, ARIZONA IN 6/07, BRINGING BACK GRANDMA'S RECIPES FOR AN AUTHENTIC HOMEMADE THIN CRUST PIZZA TO AN UNDERSERVICED AREA OF TOWN. OUR DOUGH AND SAUCE ARE MADE FROM SCRATCH AND WE ONLY USE FRESH INGREDIENTS. WE ALSO SERVE FRESH SALADS, SANDWICHES AND HOMEMADE LASAGNA. WE'VE BUILT ALOT OF REGULAR CUSTOMERS, SOME THAT EVEN COME FROM WAY ACROSS TOWN JUST FOR OUR PIZZA! WE'RE STILL WORKING HARD TO GET OUR NAME OUT THERE. THROUGH A SLOWER TIME IN THE ECONOMY OUR BUSINESS HAS CONTINUED TO GROW, ALTHOUGH WE HAVE EXPERIENCED A SLOWER TIME THROUGH THE SUMMER MONTHS, WHICH WE'VE LEARNED IS NOT UNUSUAL FOR TUCSON. WE ARE IN NEED OF FUNDING TO ASSIST WITH OUR CASH FLOW THROUGH THIS GROWTH AND SLOW PERIOD.
