New All Vegan Pizzeria Opens in Philadelphia

The owner, Mark Mebus, has been cooking professionally since 2003 when he completed his studies at Natural Gourmet in Manhattan.  He first worked at Candle 79 in New York City, before moving to Philadelphia to cook for Horizon’s.  Of his time at Horizon’s Mark said it was where had really learned to hone his skills in relation to flavor and preparation.  After working at Horizon’s for almost 3 years he became the chef at Cafe Blossom in New York City.

Mark says that he really wanted to own his own business, and that a vegan pizzeria in Philadelphia just made sense.  “It’s a great opportunity for me to have a place that upholds the ideals of myself and my peers.”
