In 1973, my father, Domenic Zappia, and my uncle, Tony Zappia, opened the first Antonio's Pizza in Richibucto, N.B. Moncton hockey fans already knew my u ncle Tony as a player and coach with the Moncton Midget Flyers, hosts of the 1977 National Midget Championships.

You could say I was born into the pizza buisness. As a young man, I opened my first pizza place, Joey's, in Sackville, N.B. in 1988.

I'm extremely proud to continue the Zappia family tradition by opening a new Antonio's Pizzaria in Moncton. I want you to enjoy the same fresh, hand-tossed, stone-baked pizza that my parents and grandparents used to make.
