Pizza on the Piazza del Campo

I had lunch at this pizzeria while in Siena, Italy. It's located at the edge of the scallop shaped Piazza del Campo, where the famous Palio takes place. The yellow flag bears a double headed eagle and represents the contrade del aquila, or district of the eagle. There are 17 contrade, and they date back to the middle ages.
