By JANET BROWNE The father and son team of Gaetano and Vince Marino hope to support Whitby's growing population of pizza fans with the new Pizza Pizzazz store on the cor- ner of Anderson and Rossland. Despite the fact that at least four new pizza stores have opened up in the last six months in Whitby, the Marinos feel they'll have no trouble finding customers. "There's a market in this -area," says son Vince Marino. "It's a new area, and there's lots of people around because of the big boom in construction." The establishment, which opened last Saturday, offers not only pizza but lasagna, panzerotti and veal sandwiches. Pizza Pizzazz is not part of a chain, but the'latest venture of former barber shop owner, Gaetano Marino. Originally from Sicily, Italy, he emigrated to Canada in 1959 and ran two of these shops, first in Toronto, then in Oshawa, until his recent decision to buy the pizza store. "I'm retired from the barber shop and I wanted to do something different," he says. "I always wan- ted to go into the pizza business." The Marinos chose to locate in Whitby, rather than Oshawa where Gaetano Marino lives, because of the quickly growing subdivisions, and because "Oshawa is flooded with pizza stores," according to Vince Marino. Without previous experience in the art of pizza-making, Gaetano Marino says he "hopes to learn," but a professional pizza-maker will be on staff. Both Vince, who is finishing up a degree in economics at York University, and his sister Lucrezia will be working in the store. The recent concept of many pizza stores is to guarantee pizza delivery within 30 minutes, or the customer gets it free. Vince Marino says that their store will not use this gimmick, as they would rather take the time to make a good pizza. "It's quality, not quantity that counts." The new plaza in which Pizza Pizzazz is located is almost com- pletely rented out, and should be complete with paved parking lot and gas station by the second week in May, according to the Marinos.'

Free Press photo Interior design store opens After four months of hard work, Lara Taylor is putting the finishing touches on her interior design store called Harrison House, the latest addition to the Pearson Lanes development on Mary St. Named for the original inhabitan- ts of the building which was moved from across the street to its new location, Harrison House is Taylor's first business which she says "offers a bit of a different ser- vice" than other stores of its kind. "Whether the customer wants a single piece of furniture, or the whole house re-decorated, we're in- terested in dealing with them" says Taylor, an accountant from Pickering. Although Taylor has imported some of her stock from other coun- tries, such as a Ralph Lauren line of wicker furniture, most of it is Canadian-made. Even folk art from local artists is available, as are prints from local art dealers. "We're not competing with stores who are marketing mass amounts of furniture," says Taylor. "My merdhandise is mainly Canadian - there's not many imported manufacturers, so the prices are lower." The top floor of the four-storey establishment is a decorating cen- tre where customers can choose fabrics for furniture, paint, wallpaper and carpeting for their homes. Taylor will be working in the store herself, and an interior decorator will be on stafi.
