With five unique, stuffed-to-the-brim breakfast sandwiches all clocking in under $6, Zookz has become a breakfast mainstay in downtown Phoenix. The price-to-portion ratio isn’t the only thing to marvel at: The sandwiches have a rather unique aesthetic. Each sandwich is sealed and cooked, creating a crispy bread pocket loaded with eggs — typically poached, for maximal oozing — along with hearty breakfast meat, zingy sauces and melted cheese. They’re inspired by the sandwiches that owner Carole Meyer’s grandmother would make using what Meyer calls "a crude stove-top sandwich cooking device." After 18 months of trial and error, Meyer succeeded in re-engineering the nostalgic, creative concoction.
