Pommarola Pizza now parks outside The Whalebone in Magdalen Road every Thursday to Saturday from 5pm until 9pm.

The business was launched by Sammy Wood, 42, in 2012 and he started by going to festivals with a pop-up restaurant under a gazebo.

Then during the pandemic, he pivoted the business and converted a 1965 Citroën H Van into a pizza truck to visit various Norfolk venues.

Mr Wood, who lives in Norwich and is half Italian, said: "We put so much love into what we do and use three different types of flour in our dough - it takes up to 72 hours to prepare everything.

"I prefer doing the pop-ups and private events as you get more feedback and repeat customers."
