Can Pizza (Sagrada Família)
Can Pizza is a Catalan-founded group (first restaurant in El Prat de Llobregat, 2014) whose stated policy, in co-founder Lolo Lorenzo's own words, is to train its own pizzaioli in-house — including people from vulnerable backgrounds — rather than import formed pizzaioli from Naples. The dough is a hand-shaped, five-flour blend (00, toasted soy, wholemeal, wholewheat and semolina) fermented 72 hours, prepared daily at each restaurant. The Sagrada Família branch, its fourth and first inside Barcelona city, was named in the 2022 '50 Top World Artisan Pizza Chains' list alongside Grosso Napoletano and NAP.
