September 2009By lighting up the grill, Fuzio Universal Bistro will help extinguish childhood hunger. From Sept. 1 to Sept. 24, diners can enjoy delectable fire-grilled pizza while supporting the non-profit organization Share Our Strength.
The drive couples with Fuzio’s introduction of fire-grilled pizzas, with crusts transformed beyond ordinary by open flames. Wait staff will ask guests if they would like to donate $1 to Share Our Strength, the leading national organization working to make sure that no kid grows up hungry in America. A raffle ticket to win a 4-burner grill will be given for every dollar the donor contributes.
“No child should have to worry about when their next meal will be,” Fuzio owner Allen Beebe said, noting, “12.6 million children are at risk of hunger in America, and Fuzio wants to do their part in helping Share Our Strength.”
On top of enjoying an authentically flavored Fuzio meal and supporting a good cause, diners at all Fuzio locations who donate will have the chance to win a Master Forge 4-burner gas grill, donated by local businesses, with 100 percent of the proceeds going toward Share Our Strength.
The culmination of the month-long initiative will be Thursday, Sept. 24, as Fuzio Universal chefs demonstrate the open-flamed baking process outside each restaurant location on the brand-new grill before raffling it off at the festive event.
The Fire-Grilled Pizza line adds to Fuzio’s eclectic global cuisine. From their cheese and tomato pizza (topped with pomodoro sauce, mozzarella-provolone blend, touch of parmesan, fresh tomato and basil) and roasted herbed portobellos and tomato pizza (topped with fresh pesto, mozzarella-provolone blend, touch of parmesan, herbed roasted portobellos, fresh tomato, basil and chili flakes, with sprinkle of extra virgin olive oil), to their sausage and peppers pizza (topped with pomodoro sauce, mozzarella-provolone blend, touch of parmesan, chicken sausage, roasted red peppers and basil), all of the flavors go well with any selection of Fuzio’s extensive wine list or colorful martinis.
