The family business
Meet Lucia. She's the starter.
Ma started feeding Lucia in a Bensonhurst kitchen in 1989 and never once missed a Sunday. Her daughter Marina grew up smelling it, left to go be an accountant for eleven years, and came home to build a wood oven in a Carroll Gardens corner room instead.
Ma still shows up to do the dough. Marina runs the fire. They disagree about hydration, loudly, in front of you. The pizza is better for it.
