"A pizza pop-up that blossomed into a permanent East Village storefront in October 2021 is opening its second location in Chula Vista. TNT Pizza was founded by owner Kevin Gist and his wife, Jess, in their home kitchen during the pandemic when Gist, a 20-plus-year veteran of local pizza spots like Pizzeria Luigi, partnered up with Joseph Ghafouri Wehrly (formerly of Surfrider Pizza), to bake up Detroit-style pizzas with plus crusts topped with carmelized cheese and other innovative topping combinations." - Kelly Bone
