Heidelberg
Pizza al taglio (by the slice) is the speciality of this hip whitewashed space. Toppings include pear and gorgonzola, mortadella (Italian sausage) with artichoke and buffalo mozzarella, and hummus with figs, aubergine and pecorino, plus at least one vegan option per day. Pair it with smoothies like Bloody Hell (beetroot, lemon juice, orange and flax seed).
There are tables inside and out on the pavement, or pick up a slice to take away.
