By the slice

Any way you slice it, people love pizza, and famed pizzaiola Tony Gemignani is set to open a new location of Slice House by Tony Gemignani, at 1286 Great Mall Parkway in the mixed-use complex across from the Great Mall. They are hiring for more than 30 new full and part-time jobs.

“As we continue to expand Slice House’s footprint across the country, it’s especially exciting for me to open doors throughout the Bay Area where I grew up and launched my pizza career – and this is true for Milpitas,” said Gemignani in a release.
