See & be seen on Halloween!

So we took a break from making pizza on Halloween (okay, Bryan did - thanks to David for working so hard!) and took our little Swaisiebug trick or treating in Seaside. It was so much fun seeing our customers out and about in their costumes.

Welcome to the world, Little Lola

Lola Ford Mayer arrived October 25 (which happens to be Stacy's parents' anniversary) and was 8 pounds, 7 ounces and 20 inches long. Janie, Dave & Chloe Mayer were our very first diners the night we opened to "practice" service with our friends, and Chloe's pizza pan was the first one to be hung on our walls. Since then, little Lola has enjoyed our pizza quite a few times thanks to her Mommy and we hear it may have been Janie's last meal before giving birth. She is gorgeous just like her mom and big sister. We are so thrilled for the Mayers and can't wait to see Baby Lola at Pizza by the Sea!!!

See & be seen - after the rain

Here's to enjoying gorgeous Fall evenings!

We heart realtors

Many of you know that in addition to the multitude of "hats" Bryan wears as the fearless leader of our businesses, he is also a realtor for Davis Properties. We understand and appreciate how hard our realtor friends are working during this crazy market and we'd like to help lighten your financial load. Therefore, through the end of the year, we are offering a 20% ECAR REALTOR DISCOUNT. When you visit Pizza by the Sea, just show your business card to receive 20% off almost anything at any time -- even beer and wine! The only exclusion is the lunch buffet, and the discount cannot be used in conjunction with any other specials. Speaking of realtors, congratulations to Bobby Johnson and John David Sullivan on your recent closings.

Spicing things up

We had a great crowd last night including one of 30A's finest chefs. There were kids everywhere drawing sidewalk chalk masterpieces, skateboarding and hula hooping. We debuted the spicy buffalo chicken pizza to rave reviews and are looking for the perfect name for the newest addition to our menu. If you have ideas, please post a comment below. The latest creation includes buffalo chicken, buffalo wing sauce, jalapenos and blue cheese. Some of the great names submitted thus far include Ron's "Hot Blue Goose," Greg's "Kickin Chickalo with a Blue Dress On" and Kate's "Deliciosso-Bellisimo" (Teressa Bellisimo is said to have invented Buffalo Wings). We can't let this day pass without wishing a very happy birthday to JD Johnson, our VERY first customer at Movies by the Sea and an opening night diner at Pizza by the Sea. We're proud to be your friends, JD.
