26 | April 2016 Joe Sugar is the kind of guy who prefers water, but he reminded me that Tuesdays is "Terrific Tea Tuesday" at TarPackers, which means free iced tea all day long. If you're part of the Wolf- pack, wear your red on "Wolfpack Wednesday" for 10 percent off. If you're a Tarheel, wear your Carolina blue for the same on "Tarheel ursday." Zachary's Pizza Zachary's Pizza specializes in Greek, Italian and American cuisine. Accord- ing to Sugar, "e regular wings are bet- ter than the spicy ones and if you don't like them... Joe Sugar will buy them for you!" A hard deal to beat. He also recommends the "phenom- enal Greek salad, the chopped chicken salad and the other being Zachary's Pizza Special, which you must get it loaded, you must get it all the way!" e pizza is like nothing he's had elsewhere. It's much more of the New York-style of pizza. Zachary's Pizza is health conscious, too, especially when Sugar is trying to eat clean. According to their website, Zachary's Pizza "uses very little salt and no preservatives in our pizza sauce or Marinara," and if Joe Sugar asks, Jim- my, a chef at Zachary's Pizza, will occa- sionally make him a special dish. "I'm trying to watch my diet and eat more protein and vegetables, so he made a special chicken for me." Los Compadres For the five to six days a week Sugar works at his store, he never has a set time for lunch. "I go when the business stops. And the whole lunch hour, we have less peo- ple working in the store and the lunch places are busy, so it's better for me to eat early or go late." So if Sugar is crunched for time and especially since Los Compadres is open aer 2:00 p.m., a rarity in Southern din- ing, he will head over to Los Compa- dres where the service is speedy, meals are inexpensive, and their hours are convenient. He typically orders the vegetable fajitas, which comes served with beans, rice, a bed of lettuce, sour cream and a Photo by Matthew Wonderly Joe heads to Los Compadres for vegetable fajitas and the complimentary salsa and tortilla chips. "The salsa has just the right zing, not so mild you think you're eating vegetables and not so hot you have to have water after it." Sizzling Vegetable Fajita
