| - Hell, am I enthused about Za! There is finally a bit of new life on this classic stretch of Annex highroad and this spot is THE highlight among a smattering of new players (e.g. The Common, Oh!, Union juice, etc.).
When I was picking up a pie the other night there were lots of other folks around my age with the same idea... I hope the chefs/owners are ready for the massive patronage that is likely to build in this 'hood!
I have tried a slice of the signature Oh-Canada (Maple Syrup, Mozzarella, Crispy Bacon and Potato Chips). A bit too sweet for my liking, but it's absurdly tasty for just one slice or a treat. I have also tried the Smoked Tomato & Arugula (Garlic Butter, Mozzarella, Tomato 'Bacon', topped with Arugula, Diced Tomatoes, and Smoked Tomato Aioli). Just great. Their specials always sound appealing to me, as well as most of the classic, signature and feature pies on the menu. I will probably try everything eventually!
I appreciate how they are adaptable and will do pick-up, half orders, mix-and-match, full pie etc. You can also just stop in for a slice. It's well priced and there's a little station set up with different oils, cheese, pepper flakes, napkins, straws, plates and a few spots to enjoy your food up front.
ZAAAAAAAA GOOD.
Update: At this point I've also tried the fungi (A+), peppers and pepperoni (tasty, but too heavy on the balsamic glaze), the house made sauces (dangerously good) and a monthly special too ludicrous not to try... Big Mac pizza (i.e. Big ZAc)!
