ZANZI’s 3467 Broadway • (614) 801-9500 Zanzisgrovecity.com Research and customer feedback show that a fresh-baked pizza requires about 45 minutes of the consumer’s time. In today’s fastpaced world, that is not always possible-or even desirable. The ZANZIS® concept affords the consumer a quality ZANZIS TO GO!™ oven-fresh pizza product while allowing consumers to control their time and schedule, by eliminating time on the telephone, waiting at a table or for a delivery to arrive. Using a simple limited menu approach, our ZANZIS TO GO!™ products are fresh-baked and then placed in a temperature protection box specially designed to eliminate heat loss while our customers place their orders.

Voting will be held for “Best Restaurant” and “Best Pizza” at the event.

Hope to see you there!
