ABOUT
INSPIRATION
My idea for a wood-fired pizza business drew inspiration from being a wild Aussie kid growing up in the Australian bush in the 1960 & 70s. With the coming of the bush fire season it was a time of fear due to its uncontrolled destruction of the landscape to both its introduced and native inhabitants. I have always believed that the bushfire destruction is a good metaphor for a new beginning, new opportunities and adaptability to change which is reflected by how quickly the Australian landscape regenerates after such destruction.
Personally I needed a big change in my life and this is why I decided to start an exciting new wood-fired catering business based around the raw thermal power of cooking with wood-fire. I’ve always loved cooking outdoors, be it at night on a raging campfire down a dusty outback stock route, camping outdoors with my kids in the English summer or just here in suburban London on a BBQ in the cold pouring rain!
CONCEPT
This is the only VW T5 Retro Tourer custom built motorhome in the world to be converted into a truly unique mobile wood-fired pizzeria catering van. We have installed an amazing UK designed Bushman Wood-fired oven in the uniquely custom built motorhome body.
In adapting this VW T5 Retro Tourer into a fully mobile wood fired pizza kitchen we can produce stunning Artisan and Gourmet pizza’s for your special event creating a quirky statement experience that will transform any occasion into a wood fired pizza food festival. Proudly in our first few years of trading we have been making appearances and creating an impact at private events, street trading pop ups and food festivals across London and the South East of England.
ETHOS
As a proud long-term Bexley village resident, it’s important for me to give back to the local community by attending/catering for at least one charity event per year.
I have pledged to support the TRiFOCAL campaign ‘Your Business is Food; don’t throw it away’ by motivating the food industry to take action on preventing edible food from going to waste, recycling inedible food, and promoting healthy sustainable eating. I try to encourage healthy eating and food sustainability and understand the impact of catering on people’s health as well as the wider environment.
I am always researching new ingredients and pride myself on offering vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options which are becoming increasingly popular with my customers.
I am a member of the Greenwich community development agency (GCDA) and support the GOODFOOD in Greenwich program Look for our GOODFOOD in Greenwich pledge towards a fairer, healthier and more sustainable Greenwich. I have also signed a Sugar Smart” pledge with Greenwich & Bexley councils, together we are actively sourcing reduced added sugar products and promoting the “Sugar Smart” campaign.
