Forks up, Phoenix! Chow Bella and Roosevelt Row present the sixth annual Pie Social at 2 on Saturday, November 21, at the Bioscience High School at 512 East Pierce Street in Phoenix. We’ve got an all-star lineup of bakers making pies for you to taste, and from now till Pie Social, we’ll introduce them to you, one by one, through pie charts designed by each chef to capture his or her persona as a baker.
Today: Traci Zitzer of Urban Table
Traci Zitzer, a classically trained chef and mother of two, brings artisan food products like strawberry lemongrass jam and pichuberry chutney to the local scene through Urban Table. You’ll find Zitzer’s unexpected offerings at local farmers markets, where fans know to expect creative ingredient combinations — think sriracha peanut butter chocolate chip cookies — featured in made-from-scratch goods. In 2012, Zitzer helped open Urban Table Larder inside JAM Boutique in Scottsdale to offer a curated selection of locally made food products and specialty goods.

Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $17,250 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
