They came to Austin, almost with the idea to open a pizza joint. In 2011 they started where they could, with a mobile food trailer they named <a href="https://www.via313.com/">Via 313</a> Pizza. Their vision was to offer the first Detroit style option outside of Detroit. It didn't take long for their native Detroit style pizza to take center stage within the Austin community. One trailer became multiple trailers and by 2014 the works to open their first brick and mortar location was in motion.</p> <p>Check out <a href= "https://restaurantunstoppable.com/zane-brandon-hunt-via313/">episode 560 with The Hunt Bros.</a> as mentioned in today's episode.</p> <p>Check out <a href= "https://restaurantunstoppable.com/chris-schultz-voodoo-when-to-scale/"> episode 745 with Chris Schultz</a> about Know When to Scale as mentioned today.</p> <p>Check out <a href= "https://restaurantunstoppable.com/aaron-lyons-dish-society/">episode 608 with Aaron Lyons</a> as mentioned in today's episode</p> <p>Check out <a href="https://amzn.to/2WWXfqV">Blink: The Power of thinking Without Thinking by Malcolm Gladwell</a> as mentioned in today's episode.</p> <h2>Show notes…</h2> <h3>Calls to ACTION!!!</h3> <ul> <li>Join <a href= "https://www.restaurantunstoppablenetwork.com/plans/47357?bundle_token=17a3bdca1ccbc19303dff68d05df5ab2&utm_source=manual">Restaurant Unstoppable Network</a> and get your first 30 days on me!  Connect with my past guest and a community of superfans.</li> <li>Subscribe to the <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJSERtxnAE3V7T9PQ19w_Og">Restaurant Unstoppable YouTube Channel</a></li> <li>Join the private <a href= "https://www.fa
