Regional eating custom

The French pizza truck as a village fixture

A wood-fired oven in a converted van, parked in a village square on a fixed evening each week, is for many rural French communes the local pizzeria. The camion à pizza is a genuinely French institution, and the weekly visit functions as a small community event.
