One of the many things we love about Southern Arizona is the abundance of great pizza joints. Tucson is a legit pizza town, and we took some time to honor one of our true pizza pioneers on this live broadcast from Tino’s Pizza!

Our celebrity co-host this week was Jamie Rice of 520 Eats, who talked about his latest food and beverage news and his fondness for a great pizza pie. Kade Mislinki then joined the conversation to share some news about his newest concept called Batch. Whiskey and donuts anyone? The man of the hour was pizza pioneer and proprietor of Tino’s Pizza, Dino Chonis. Dino shared some stories behind his more than 30 years of success in the pizza biz, and walked us through his menu which includes some of the classics, some signature pies and spectacular sandwiches, and, of course, the BIG MO! Feasting on his wings, his pizzas, and his frosty craft brews was our way of celebrating the beginning of another delicious year in Tucson. See you at Tino’s!
