Ta-da! You’ve come to the right place.

Norfolk’s premier wood fired pizza specialist event caterers. 2021 will be our 9th year of firing up the tastiest wood fired pizza for weddings, birthday’s, corporate celebrations etc!

All dough is hand-made using the finest ‘00’ flour, extra virgin olive oil and sea salt.  Our passata sauce is made using San Marzano tomatoes, oregano, garlic and wood kitchen secret ingredient.  Our organic and seasonal toppings are sourced directly from local farms, markets and gardens. Our pizzas are served Romana style (thin & crispy) cooking in wood fired oven in just 60 seconds.

The wood we use is all ethically sourced from Norfolk. We only use the best seasoned ash, beech and oak to give you the finest wood fired pizza west of Italy.

While we’re based in beautiful Norwich, we can travel to wherever you want classic food from a classic van. Pop up in your street, corporate bashes, weddings, fêtes, sports events, festivals, gigs, divorce parties, you name it! Leave it to us. We bring everything and take it away, giving you a hassle free and memorable event.

the van

The myth. The legend. The Van!

The Citroën H Van, Type H, H-Type or HY (or the Big Lad, as we affectionately call it), is a light truck that was put together in 1947 and 1981. It was originally developed as a simple front wheel driven van after World War II. And, while a total of 473,289 were produced in 34 years over France and Belgium, most of them were sold in France, Belgium and the Netherlands. They were not sold in the UK in right hand drive.

In its native land, this funny looking wagon is known as “Nez de Cochon”, “Pig Nose”. And, for some reason, when used by the police, it was simply called “panier à salade”, “salad basket”. Don’t ask.
