Pupatella is Italian slang for doll, but if you find yourself in Arlington, Virginia on a Thursday or Friday morning, it’s also the name of a little red cart that makes the most delightful Neapolitan pizzas imaginable.
You travel around the world enough and you start to realize a great number of awesome places have a whole culture built around the food cart. Pupatella isn’t going to single handedly make Northern Virginia street cart food relevant, but it’s a nice step in the right direction.
Find them at the intersection of 9th St N and N Stuart St in Arlington, VA, just outside of Ballston Metro on the Orange line. They’re open most Thursdays and Fridays for lunch, but they’ve got a restaurant in the works at 5104 Wilson Blvd.
