Fearless Foodie:

Has Stacey Been Banned From Dazzo's?

Not formally, no. But a lot of people don't realize Martha Boggs, owner of Bistro at the Bijou, also owns Dazzo's across Gay Street. I wrote a food column about food crushes, and added this bonus at the end:

Grandma's Slice + No Stacey
Speaking of Dazzo's, it's funny. I guess it's not all that common of knowledge that Martha Boggs, She Who Denied State Senator Stacey Campfield Service at Bistro By the Bijou, also owns the pizza place across Gay Street--has for about a year now. I was in late the other afternoon, like 4 p.m., to get a slice, and asked my favorite server if they'd been wildly busy like the Bistro since the news broke Feb. 1. Steady, yes, she said, but people don't seem to make the association. "Maybe she should have given us a shout-out, too," she said, only half-joking. "You know, 'And Stacey Campfield ain't allowed to eat at Dazzo's, either.'"
