FRESH Wood Fired Pizza and Pasta, Black Mountain, North Carolina

A blogger posted a review of  FRESH Wood Fired Pizza and Pasta, Black Mountain, North Carolina (apparently not far from Asheville, NC).

The review has several good pictures of pizza (but not the oven).

The review also says in part, "We walked in the door and were instantly greeted by the aroma of rising yeast and artisan cheeses wafting out of a massive fireplace. I watched pizza dough skillfully tossed in the air and then stretched as thin as a windowpane. The menu consists of pizzas with an unapologetic less-is-more attitude. Each pizza is layered with a few meticulously selected ingredients. After a trip into the fire, the pizzas arrived at our table piping hot with a blistered bubbly crust. I had to pause a moment to gaze at these glorious creations before devouring them."

Community Oven, Tanzania

The village is not identified in this article about a 16-year-old California girl who helped build a community oven in Tanzania.

Certainly it is an wonderful example of ovens improving people's lives.

About a year later, there is now more information about Lily Gordon. I have collected links about her.
