content: Quote from: woody on October 23, 2017, 12:41:42 pmI’ve never been to an Uno in Chicago, but I went to one somewhere else in USA, and mouth-watering is definitely not the memory I have of it... :/Quote from: JPortici on October 23, 2017, 12:15:38 pmI’m American, and Chicago style “pizza” makes me cry. And not tears of joy. It escapes me how anyone could prefer that to real pizza, be it classic Italian, or even a good NY style slice (if it’s of high quality). I mean, it’s not just the thickness, but the having the ingredients in the wrong order... who wants toasty tomato and untoasty cheese?!?

There was only 1 Uno, there was a line every night, and their 'deepdish' pizza, albeit no pizza, was worth waiting for.For all I know they are a chain now and taste like Dominos, but the memory is still intact.

They changed their recipe recently, and now it is really good.However, no pizza, from any place on earth, will beat Bristol Pizza in Bristol, CT. They, hands down, have the absolute BEST pizza. I am over a hundred miles away, otherwise I would eat that stuff every day and night. They are absolutely amazing.

Italian food and the best thin-crusted pizza this side of the North Sea. They have a truffle pizza on the menu that alone is worth the 60k drive I have to make. But then, I really like truffle.

content: Quote from: Nusa on October 23, 2017, 08:17:16 amI think in Australia we call that a "deep dish" pizza. Pie's generally imply they have have some kind of top, normally pastry but in the case of Shepherds Pie, mashed potato.

content: Quote from: tooki on October 23, 2017, 03:52:42 pmBack on the topic of domain names:The best pizza in around boston mass. and has to be owned by greek people. They put a tiny amount of feta (I hate feta but they put in just enough) and they also make really good sauce and crust. Pizza south of new England is terrible. Most are made by indian owners who don't know how to make it. They buy the cheapest Sam's Club bulk cheese and big cans of tomato sauce. They think you just add dough cheese and sauce and that's a pizza. Its worse then dominos or papa johns which to me taste nothing like pizza.

Home made, hand stretched so as to be almost transparent in places in the centre, cooked as hot as the oven will go. Ingredients: flour, water, salt, yeast, tomato passatta, mozzarella, a little parmesan (Reggio), black pepper and some fresh basil. It was, if I do say so myself, delicious.
