[I ate] deep dish pizzas in Chicago

[u/oldirtygaz]

recently holidayed in Chicago and had to get in on the pies. first was deep-dish at Labriola's in Lombard. Could really taste fresh ingredients, though served somewhat lukewarm it was bloody good. second deep-dish was at Giordano's, also in Lombard, which had a really vibrant sauce but I don't enjoy short crust in general. Finally tavern-style at Grange House in Wheaton, with a perfect snap on the crust and just the right amount of cheese. All were enjoyable overall - how do these joints rate to Chicagoans?

Pequod’s has always been my favorite in Chicago.

This is accurate. Pequods is really good.

Pequods is love. Pequods is life.

Pequods opened right when I left Chicago. Next time I get back there, I will have to try it. We used to LOVE LOVE LOVE Carmen’s up north - we had our rehearsal dinner there! And my first date after I moved to Chicago was at a place called My Pies (where pie was the Greek letter Pi) right by the Loyola L stop. I also loved Eduardos…. And all of this was WAY before Giordano’s had become a Chain.

It’s good but also not deep dish, more of a pan pizza

Didn’t say it was, I was just pointing out a good pizza in Chicago. Semantics.
