Zazaza – Pizza with Pizzaz
With two locations across the city, Zazaza is owned by the same restaurateur behind the popular Burger chain ‘The Works’. Although created with different concepts in mind, Zazaza shares the same basis of good-quality food served in an environment that places a concentrated focus on great hospitality. The menu is loosely based around a theatre theme, the ‘pizazz’ element of the restaurant, with playfully named pizzas such as ‘napoleon’s leftovers’ and ‘shangri la di da’.
