| - Super friendly employees and really unusual pizza. I've had it second hand before (as in my friends catered a get together with it, and it was barely lukewarm when we ate it, but most people other than myself were too drunk to care), so I went to the source to try some different stuff fresh out of the oven... but they don't do slices, so I haven't been able to try any hot and fresh yet. The cold-ish slices were around 4 star but they intrigued me, however they should really sell pizza by the slice here, if only for my benefit.
When they say Zablong, it sort of means Oblong, I guess, because that's the shape of the pizza. They remind me of the shape of Beaver Tails in Ottawa. Couldn't taste more different though. The Vampire Slayer was amazing at the party except that nobody who had eaten anyone could make out with anyone afterwards, no amount of mints and teeth-brushing can fix that damage.
One thing I'm not crazy about is having all the toppings laid out in front of you like a Cali-style pizza spot, or a Subway or something. It just reminds me of Chipotles and Millennials. Not that there's anything wrong with Millennials, but a lot of that sort of food, to me, is garbage. This place is not, so don't get distracted by the format. It's really good pizza. I'm not ready to give it 5 stars yet though.
Apparently Za is pizza and Blong is belonging. But I still think it's connected to the oblong nature of the pizza.
Anyway I'm off to listen to the Linkin Park song, Somewhere I Blong.
