I eat at Tomasso's at least once a week, not because it's close, which it is, but because it's the best pizza place I encountered in Barcelona. Let me explain why, the dough is light and full of bubbles, true NY style, crunchy at the bottom and soft in the middle, ideal to fold and eat with one hand.
