  • Meatballs

    • Pizza Man
      • Apr 1992 - Aug 1998

      The regionally renowned Meatballs was the "Cheers" of western NC. This eclectic restaurant was full of characters that gave guests a sense of welcome and coming home. With an open-view kitchen diners could watch in wonder as staff prepared tasty entrees with speed and finesse that defied the spatial limitations of the work space. My job duties consisted of entertaining and amazing guests with dough-tossing acrobatics and furiously working the oven to cook and serve pizza, calzones, cheesy garlic bread, and other appetizers. Other duties included greeting guests and processing payments while not burning food and serving items in a timely manner. Show less
