The blueberry side is topped with blueberry sauce and fresh blueberries 🫐, plus a generous amount of cream cheese, making it sweet and creamy and really delicious 👍 The spicy pepperoni side had finely chopped jalapeños as toppings, and the tomato sauce itself was spicy too, giving it a distinct flavor that paired even better alongside the blueberry pizza ^^ ![Empty plate after finishing the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-fromitaly-weekday-lunch-terrace/pocheon-fromitaly-weekday-lunch-terrace-24-186oe-900.webp) *Devoured 💨* ## Is From Italy in Pocheon worth a weekday lunch trip?
