RIP David Bazot

I was saddened to just learn that David passed early in August in La Madera. Most knew him as the owner of Jungle Pizza. Anyone who took a moment to chat with him and discover his story knows he had addiction issues.

As an entrepreneur, David had a formula for always delivering a quality product. JP was known for great pizza and amazing marg's...by far the biggest in Zihua. David would often tour the restaurant to 'top it up' if it wasn't to your liking. Our favorite line from him was "it's a two marg minimum".

Peace.

Very sorry to hear this. He was a kind soul despite his issues. So what will become of JP?

David certainly had his problems, what with his partner splitting a few years ago, some of his staff pulling those dirty tricks that seem to inevitably dog gringo restaurant owners in Mexico, drug "misunderstandings" with local authorities, etc. Nevertheless, his restaurant lasted years longer than we ever would have guessed, given its location.
We understood that he had once been a high-flyer in the financial world back east. That alone would be enough to fry anyone's brains. We'll miss seeing David at Paty's on his day off, always with his Doberman, "Little One".

Very sad news indeed.
We always enjoyed seeing and chatting with David.
I had a nice stroll with him and Little One in February.

Wow, sorry to hear this. I will really miss his quirky personality and the bizarre chats we had when he would deliver to our casa. Never a dull moment with the guy. I hope Jungle Pizza lives on as his legacy.

Rest in peace David!

So sorry to hear this. Always enjoyed walking up to Jungle Pizza from LaRopa, enjoying his food and beverage and have a chat with David. Will miss him. I too hope his business lives on.
