Am I wrong to exclusively love Chicago's Pizza (Lake View)? Am I missing out on better pizza?
Chicago is my favorite city. I visit as much as possible. I have been there a lot with the kids. The first time we went, I wasn't enthusiastic about trying deep dish pizza but was told that it is a must. We got caught in a storm after the Halloween parade and randomly found Chicago's Pizza. I didn't have high hopes but we ordered a deep dish and it turned out to be one of the best things I have ever eaten. It's the only pizza place I visit when I am in town. The sauce tastes homemade to me, the cheese is SO cheesy. The crust is delicious. I love it. But is it really considered good by locals? I'm bringing my husband to Chicago tomorrow for the first time because his schedule is so difficult. I cannot imagine better pizza but am I being pizza blind? Is there better deep dish to be had? Please let me know if I have made a solid choice or if there's way better deep dish.
