By Isabella Breda isabel/a@masoncounty.com After months of pending inspec- tions, Allyn Pizza will open Aug. 12. “Judging by all the calls I’ve been getting from people trying to order pizza I think we’re going to be pretty busy,” Allyn Pizza owner Ron Butler said. . Butler said he receives 10 to 12 ’ calls a day, after a June 8 post on the restaurant’s Facebook announced that they planned to open soon. Though Butler is a plumber, and his wife, Juvy Smith, is a hairdresser, without any professional culinary ex- perience, Butler said they had plenty of time to experiment with recipes based on YouTube videos and his col- le'agues’ menus at Union Camp Piz- MABY’S MEMOIBS za and Fairgrounds Pizza in Kitsap County. The pizzeria’s crew — primarily North Mason High School students and recent graduates — got a boot- camp-esque week of training prior to opening day. “I got them in here working with the cheap stuff on their first day of training,” Butler said. “I had bought a bunch of ingredients from Costco for them to learn with.” By day two, the local teens had ad- vanced to the fresh ingredients the pizzeria will serve its customers. Staff members served up sub sand— wiches, calzones, pizza, salads and wings for Butler and Smith to taste during trainingweek.

Allyn Pizza will be Allyn’s only piz- zeria and many locals have expressed their enthusiasm in anticipation of its opening. ' “So excited for this! We have been waiting since we saw the sign,” Belfair Elementary teacher Monica Roy com— mented on Facebook. Butler said location was a big factor in his decision to open a pizzeria. “I chose Allyn because it didn’t have nothing like 'it down there,” But- ler said in a June 25 interview with the. Herald. “1 know people in Allyn don’t like driving to Belfair (for pizza), once youget off the road it might take you 20 minutes one way.” He and Smith have been waiting to open since spring, when they started leasing the location near the US. Post Office and 2 Margaritas. They finally received clearance to open on July 31. “I had three of (my employees) quit,” Butler said. “They got tired of waiting and I don’t blame ’em.” Butler gave preference to teenag- ers in the hiring process as a means of helping the community’s youtha get their foot in the door. “I kinda like the idea that it gives teens the opportunity to start working and keeps them off the streets and out of trouble,” Butler said. Allyn Pizza will be open from 11 a.m. to 9 pm. seven days a week. The full menu is available at @AllynPizza' on Facebook.
