Customer feedback has been tremendous and this is just the beginning. To understand how special H&H City Pizza is, one must understand the friendship behind the gourmet pizza. Chefs Marshall Reichert and Tyler Anderson have been friends and have worked together on and off at various high-end retail and hotel establishments for years. They share a solid friendship and common goals SEE PIZZA PAGE 54

Crowne Plaza San Marcos Golf Resort recently celebrated its 100th anniversary, and invitees from throughout the Valley turned out to celebrate. The fete included the unveiling of propertywide renovations to help usher in the next 100 years. The renovation was carefully planned so as to respect the history and relevance of the iconic Chandler resort, yet at the same time incorporating beautiful updates. Victoria Schafer with WW Hospitality Marketing states, “They did a really good job of making it feel modern.” The guest rooms have been
remodeled and updated to reflect a retro-modern flavor with heavy uses of white, greens and light earth tones that lend a clean, airy and sophisticated ambiance. Other areas of the hotel that have been remodeled and upgraded include the front lobby bar, the ballroom and restaurant. The outdoor patio also received a new, warm and inviting fire pit. The golf course is also slated to be redone in the summer. Chandler city councilmembers and Mayor Jay Tibshraeny were also on hand for the evening’s festivities. Other guests included CEO and Chairman of Interwest Capital Alex Roudi, Chandler Museum
