On an excursion to Zushi last week, I chanced once again upon the peripatetic heidi pizzeria. This time the van was parked in the forecourt of a supermarket, close to the station. So, no ocean view or bracing sea air.

And the pizzas are the same as ever. By which I mean not only scaled down, but eclectic. And most definitely local.
This one — called "Nero" — featured not squid ink but hijiki seaweed, harvested just down the road, off Hayama. Topped with shirasu whitebait (from the same locale). And cross-hatched with mayonnaise. Very Japonaise...
