Maceri's Soup and Ashby's Ice Cream Scoop offer Hot and Cold Comfort Foods Shelby Township Michigan

All of the offerings at Maceri's Soup & Scoop have a history. Founded in 1936, the Maceri family has been a
staple in the Detroit area's produce industry located in Detroit's Eastern Market, Maceri Produce. Anthony and
Lori Maceri are the co-owners of the company. Anthony, a produce and food industry veteran for more than forty
years, learned the ropes from his father, "King of Freshness" Sam Maceri. Having many years experience in the
wholesale and retail food industry, they realized a restaurant that offered homemade soups made with fresh
produce received daily directly to the family's warehouse from local and nationwide farmers would be a hit, and
so far it is! Anthony services many restaurants throughout Metro Detroit. Not only is Anthony renowned in the
wholesale and retail produce industry, he also has restaurant knowledge. His mother, Josephine Maceri, owned
and operated a pizzeria serving oven baked subs, pasta, and lasagna starting in the 1970's. It was located on
Mack Avenue in Grosse Pointe Woods.

Maceri's have more than 200 varieties of soup that Lori has created so far. She learned the secrets to preparing
food from her grandmother, who helped her mother operate her restaurant. Mazzola's Restaurant was located in
Detroit, Michigan later relocating to Tucson, Arizona. They cooked from family traditions made from scratch,
which is what we do at Maceri's for our extended customer family. Soup is made fresh at the restaurant. You will
not find soup like this anywhere else. Some favorites include Stracciatella, Chicken Pot Pie, Chicken Lemon
Rice, Angelina's Minestrone®, Pauline's Chicken Pastina, and "For Real" Vegetable™, which Anthony created
along with their subs in 1984 at Tom Maceri's Fruit Market which he owned and operated with Lori on Detroit's
east side. Together their many years of experience in the foodservice industry they have created a restaurant
that ensures the best quality, service, and value using only the finest products available.

Another creation at our fruit market was our sub sandwiches. We now sell our sandwiches at our restaurant
along with our famous rolled pita sandwich. We slice our own premium quality meats and cheeses for all of our
pitas, subs, and pretzel bread sandwiches.

Maceri's Soup & Scoop serves up to forty flavors of National Award-Winning Ashby's Sterling Premium Ice
Cream. Another favorite is their own Homemade Gourmet Italian Ice made onsite just like Italy. It can be twisted
with soft serve for a Gelati Twist. At Soup & Scoop, we are famous for the size of our scoops. You will not get
that from any other ice cream parlor. Your eyes will be amazed. Having the scoop side of the restaurant allows
us to bake signature cakes, ice cream cakes in 30 varieties of cake flavors baked on-site, pies, brownies,
cookies, waffles and waffle cones in a variety of flavors. They are all baked in house never premade or brought
in frozen. You will not find that at any other ice cream store. In 1984, Ashby's Ice Cream was developed. They are
a Michigan Company. They created an ice cream that was as good as it looked, using the finest ingredients, and
lots of them. Ashby's has won numerous awards for its quality and best new flavors by the National Ice Cream
and Retailers Association, the World Dairy Expo, and the LA County Fair.
