Nolo Mia Pizzeria
This is where last night’s pizza came from: Nola Mia Pizzeria in Ponchatoula. What started in a food truck has morphed into a large building that was filled to capacity and had a booming takeout business while I waited on our to-go order. They have a very large wood-fired oven that gets fed by two opposing pizza assembly lines of three people. First, the dough is stretched and placed on a peel, then the sauce and cheese are applied, and finally, the toppings. The cook then slides it onto his long-handled peel to place in the oven.
And after having eaten their pizza I can see why they are where they are. This would be a once a week meal if I lived here.
