Pizza for lunch

During lunch guests prepare their own pizza. A big table is put with lots of toppings for the pizza. The chefs prepare the dough and the guests are given an opportunity to select toppings for themselves. It is their choice that actually excites them as they are spoiled with different toppings. The pizzas are done right in front of the guests. After selection of toppings the pizzas are put in a pizza oven that uses firewood. Pizza making in Chobe Chilwero lodge is quite unique because in most places if one orders a pizza it is prepared at the back without the guest seeing what will be happening and without the guests say on the amount and variety of toppings.
