OT: Pizza
I know these types of threads come up every now and then, but hey our free agent attainment has been so fast-paced that we deserve a break from it... yea
What's the best place in Chicago? I go Pequods for deep dish.

Cliché, but Giordanos has been my favorite so far.
I haven't tried Pequods yet, but when searching for pictures on Google, I'm not impressed.

Re: OT: Pizza
Lou Malnati's, though Pequod's is damn good too and there is absolutely no crust that comes close to Pequod's caramelized crust.

Cliff Levingston did as well (about 8 months ago or so) at the original location on Ontario and Papa John's and Pizza Hut was probably better. Extremely surprising and even more so disappointing.

Re: OT: Pizza
I'm a Pequod's fan but I don't consider it deep dish just because it has a thick crust.

Re: OT: Pizza
Giordanos is my favorite for deep dish.
Sarpino's is my favorite chain
Undecided on my favorite thin crust - no one has really wowed me yet. So I'll go with my homemade on the grill thin crust.

Re: OT: Pizza
i should note that im only talking about deep dish...only pizza that matters to me
i dont really like pan pizza enough to think it's all that different from place to place
thin crust, i like father and son, guy's and, honestly, dominoes

Re: OT: Pizza
Giordano's is tourist TRASH pizza!
Pequods is the best in the city IMO.
+1 on the Sarpino's being the best chain pizza... that's a fact, by a longshot!

Re: OT: Pizza
I'm not from Chicago. I've only eaten at three Chicago deep dish places:
(1) Giordano's
(2) Lou Malnati's
(3) Uno's (the original one)
I thought Giordano's was delicious, and found Malnati's and Uno's to be very disappointing. Neither even sniffs my top 10 favorite pizza places. In fact, I doubt I'd ever choose to eat at either Uno's or Malnati's ever again.

Good list!
Half way through this post, I had to leave and go get lunch! I was getting hungry!
Arounf Draft time in June we were all talking about places to go for lunch "downtown"!
How about Giordano's at 225 W Jackson this Friday (8/14) and
Lou Malnati's at 439 N Wells next Friday (8/21)
Then we can vote on it!
Never give up. Never surrender.
