This is the cutest little place. We passed by this pizza place on the way to town and was drawn to…read morethe pizza stand in a refurbished old train car, and the smell of wood fire. There are some benches and lawn chairs in the front of the place.
Like many businesses in France, this place is only open for lunch (12-2pm) and dinner (6-10pm). The owner operates by himself and during dinner time there are a lot of pick up orders, so expect a wait of up to 40 minutes. But the wait is well worth it. And be patient, there's only the owner doing everything. If there are no orders ahead of you, the wait is as little as 10 minutes.
Some years ago we had a really good pizza in Italy and have been searching for something similar to no avail. At La Roulotte we finally found the perfect thin crust, wood fired pizza. We've tried fancy places in the US that claim to be Neapolitan pizza certified but honestly those can't even hold a candle to this place.
We tried four different pizzas in our two visits here:
Napolitaine: tomato base, mozarella, olives, capers, olives and oregano
Forestiere: cream, mozzarella, mushrooms, onions, bacon, ham, garlic
Romana: tomato, mozzarella, parma ham (or breasola), tomatoes, arugula, basil
Valdostana: tomato, mozzarella, smoked bacon, egg, garlic
Honestly I liked all of the pizzas. The crust was just perfect. Out of the four, the Forestiere and Romana are the real winners. I really liked the Valdostana too, the egg on it tasted really fresh. The Napolitaine got a little too salty, with the capers, olives and anchovies attacking your tastebuds at the same time.
