hot pizza. People drive from Orlando to have<br />
this pizza!”<br />
Another thing that Slyce offers is beer that<br />
compliments the season. “We have several<br />
guys on staff that are beer (or wine) freaks<br />
and we talk about beer and wine all the time,”<br />
Ken explains. “What is trending with beer<br />
now is like music -meaning it changes with a<br />
new style and people are trying to mimic it.<br />
There are always new crazy beers and we try<br />
to find the ones that work. But we don’t want<br />
to be gimmicky. The beer has to pair perfectly<br />
with the food we’re serving. So we decide on<br />
the beer for the season.”<br />
At Slyce pizza, there is always live music!<br />
Mostly solos and duets which are found by<br />
their booking agent, Matt Winter. (Also<br />
known for the Matt Winter Band). “You can<br />
call him and tell him you are looking for an<br />
eight-piece band with a three guitars,<br />
saxophone, trumpet and a banjo and he can<br />
make it happen. He’s the best music<br />
organizer in Pinellas County.” Ken tells us. So<br />
how does a musician go about getting<br />
booked at Slyce? “Call Matt.” Ken says, “He<br />
likes to view a Youtube video or if you are<br />
playing somewhere, he might go out and see<br />
you.”<br />
Friday and Saturday are the busiest nights<br />
which Ken says have three times the amount<br />
of business on any Monday. “We’re hiring!”<br />
Ken says. So if you’re looking for employment<br />
in the food industry, give Slyce a call. They<br />
will even employ under 18 years old for part<br />
time positions.<br />
And to keep their name and awesome<br />
reputation you will find Slyce Pizza involved<br />
with local festivals such as The Kingfish<br />
Tournament, Phil Fest, Octoberfest, Beauty<br />
and the Beach and The Taste of IRB.<br />
“We are a different place. We have games for<br />
the kids, live music and more.” Ken tells us.<br />
“It’s not like Dominoes. This is a big<br />
experience! “<br />
With your choice of two locations, you’re sure<br />
to have a great time.<br />
