If you tried to sell what passes for pizza in Chicago in NY or LA everyone would think it is a pie.

exhibitman ain’t eating much broccoli unless it’s deep fried in chocolate sauce

Thanks, Ronnie. Mario Batali says if you have an ingredient you don't quite like, deep fry the sucker.

Born & raised in NYC, Al; I know my pizza. Entirely too well, according to my wife.

Deep dish soup maybe. That stuff is not even pizza in my book. Been to the supposed best places in Chicago. Soup.

I think wherever you’re from that’s where the best pizza is! Being from the East Coast there is no question New York style pizza is the best. Now I live in Minnesota and they cheese the shit out of everything… even when I ask for light cheese it’s way too much cheese. Chicago style pizza is disgusting it’s cheese soup in a breadbowl!!

We ordered a pizza here on Wednesday not sure from who now but it was just horrible. Someone local close to the convention center.

Giordano's right down the street from the Convention center has great deep dish pizza. I think I have been there every single time I (and groups of friends) have gone to the show there.

Yeah, LA is the last place on earth I'd expect to find even decent pizza.
It reminds me of an Entourage episode where the main character Vince cringes over "California" pizza with guacamole 🤢 lol
