Perfect Pizza


Heads22

Recommended Posts

Alright, you guys know how I love to get conversation going, especially with stuff people won't attack each other over (much).

 

 

 

What makes your perfect pizza? Is it homemade? Pizzeria? Gas station? Frozen? What's on it? Do you need it served by a fat Italian guy?

 

 

 

 

 

Let's hear them.

 

 

 

Oh, and NSS72, you already know what I'm going to say sucks..... :P

Thick: Lou's

Thin: Barnaby's (you'd never think it looking at the place)

 

Honorable Mention: Great Plains Sauce and Dough, Ames, Iowa

 

Topping: Pepperoni is all I want.

 

And I still can't believe Heads thinks that gas station pizza from Casey's is the best.

Dude, you have got to get a deep from Art of Pizza on Ashland, you will be blown away, I promise.

When I'm home:

I loooooove Homerun Inn.

 

I also (don't remember the name) love the deep dish from the pizza joint right by Children's hospital. I haven't had it in ages, but mmmm, my mouth waters just thinking about it.

 

 

When I'm in Upstate:

I haven't found any acceptable deep dish pizza.

 

But I moved over the summer and I live about a mile away from the little Italy here, and pretty much pizza from any one of the places there is amazing, best thin crust pizza.

Deep Dish: Pequod's Pizza

(Sox always on when they are playing ) Webster and Clybourne.

 

Thin Crust: Harry's sports bar and grille

(countryside, Il) Also another Sox bar.

 

Im a pizza freak. I eat it almost daily.

I have tried almost every pizza place in the area.

I'm not all that impressed with Pequod's. Pizza is good but not great, its not Chicago style deep dish, and the service there is always HORRIBLY slow. Too bad too, its the closest pizza place to where I live, I think.

 

If you haven't yet, try Barnaby's for thin crust. Nothing beats it. They have locations in Northbrook, Des Plaines, and one or two other spots I cannot recall. Used to be one on Touhy in the city, but that one closed. The one in Northbrook is usually best.

In Austin:

Deep: Mangia. As close to real Chicago style as you can get in Texas.

Thin: Rounders. And a side of garlic knots, please.

At 2 am: Hoek's on Sixth St.

 

In Chicago:

Chicago Style: Uno's or Due's

Deep: Pequod's with tomatoes and pepperoni.

Spinach: Edwardo's

Thin: Pat's Pizza.

Different: Chicago Pizza and Oven Grinder
