That guy knows what he is doing. Good dough with a little charring and
just quality tomatoes (not a sugared "desert topping" style sauce you
commonly find on industrial pizzas) are what make a pizza. We have a
couple neighborhood shops started by Italians who learned in Brooklyn.
One place even has an anthracite coal fired oven.
