“We are extremely proud to be part of this vibrant neighborhood and look forward to enriching it any way we can," Pizzini stated.
Pizzini's family opened the original Teka Molino and the Taco Hut before the restaurants changed owners and closed, respectively, but he celebrates his family recipes and culinary techniques — using stone-ground masa and freshly made fillings.
