We're Back!

The last time we went out for a stop on the Zza Moines tour was March 14, 14 weeks ago. That’s also the last time we went out to eat a restaurant, period.

That same weekend in March I got inspired and spontaneously started another blog called Life in Social Isolation.  And while the pandemic is still reeling in the United States, it’s become clear that our shock has worn off a bit. That shock was writing motivation for me and almost a dozen guests whose stories I spotlighted on the blog. So I decided to start talking about pizza again. 

Reviewing the data set for Zza Moines was a slight bummer as I realized Papa Keno's in Drake neighborhood recently closed permanently. I was disappointed Ryan didn't get a chance to try it. I had it one day during a lunch break from a business meeting down at Drake and it was pretty yummy!

At any rate, while I can’t leave the level of reviews I was when we were dining in, I still want to try all the Zza and tell you about it. Probs lucky for y'all that my posts will be shorter without me talking about the ambiance of the restaurant. 

Over the past few months we've adapted a new little tradition of pizza Sunday. We eat in the living room, which Jack loves because he can mix playtime with pizza time. We had some takeout pizza from our fave, 7 Stone Pizzeria, but Ryan has been working a lot on his homemade deliciousness!  (That is, until the yeast ran out).

Ryan's pan pizza. 

We picked up the Zza Moines tour tonight with takeout from The Food Depot in Grimes. Stay tuned for the review!
