WHIRL | THE 20’s OF 2018
E. C. YAZICI (YAZ) YAZ LTD.; PIZZA & PASTA VILLA; YZC CONSULTING; QUICK N CHEAP INSURANCE; COMPUTING & INFORMATION ENGINEER; I/O PSYCHOLOGIST; RESTAURATEUR Favorite things to do and places to go in Pittsburgh: I spend a lot of time in the kitchen cooking ever since I took a break from the tech industry, operating under YAZ Ltd. I’ve fallen in love with the Pittsburgh foodie scene. I have been exploring new recipes for retail expansion with Pizza & Pasta Villa and our new fine addition, Italian Rustic Kitchen, which will be the first virtually launched restaurant on UberEats this summer in Pittsburgh! In my free time, I am usually out in Robinson, visiting my parents and my newborn niece, and working out at Planet Fitness in Mt. Lebanon, where I went to high school. Schenley Park is my sacred haven. A long windy jog on trails reminiscing about my University of Pittsburgh college days and knowing there are very little exams ahead in life makes it a bonus. I religiously treat myself to sushi and sashimi for lunch on Mondays at No. 1 Sushi Sushi in Market Square, along with their baby octopus and seaweed salad. I live on East Carson Street in the South Side, which has it perks. I’m usually out for Tuesday night trivia at Twelve Whiskey BBQ. On the weekends, you can find me at SEVEN, Social House 7, Cavo, or Cake. Favorite people to go with: Significant others and business colleagues
