Listen to Tori Tiso, owner of Tori T’s Pizzeria, Malverne, Long Island, New York on The Hot Slice Podcast<\/h2>\n

Tori Tiso grew up in her father\u2019s pizzeria, the famous Louie and Ernie’s Pizza in Bronx, New York. She could have easily continued the pizza dynasty at Louie and Ernie\u2019s. Instead she decided to strike out on her own in Long Island straying from the standard New York slice the acclaimed Bronx spot was known for to open Tori T\u2019s Pizzeria. On this week\u2019s The Hot Slice Podcast with Pizza Today, Josh and Denise have a great chat with Tori on her decision to go solo and what\u2019s happened since the pizzeria opened almost a year ago.<\/p>\n

While New York style pizza is still very much a part of Tori\u2019s business, The No. 1 seller is Detroit-style pizza. She opened the pizzeria serving eight Detroit pizzas. Now, the pizzeria serves 15. Tori shares what sparked her love of Detroit style pizza and how it has captivated Long Island customers.<\/p>\n

We also dive into being a women-owned business and what Tori forecasts a continued rise of women in the industry. She shares how just as she was mentored, she is focused on developing new pizza makers and pizzeria owners.<\/p>\n

A mission for Tori early in her business\u2019s inception was engraining the pizzeria and herself into the community. We cover the steps she has taken to make that happen.<\/p>\n
