Pizza was invented in Italy. Your casserole was invented in Chicago lol

If you're ever in Italy, go to Al Forno della Soffitta for pizza.

If you're ever in Chicago, don't eat for two days and then find yourself a casserole.

I’ve eaten the casserole at pizza uno. Don’t know if that’s good or bad. But there’s no dough lol the crust is burnt cheese

Very unique, more of an Italian pot pie than pizza but I'd get down... not sure I need that many huge mushrooms hogging up all the space, tho
[Reply]

I'm totally down for them mushrooms. Nice and fresh, but just enough time getting cozy with the meat sauce.

The way that the inversion gives the crust a great way to brown evenly is inspired.

Those are some fat ass mushrooms on that thing. Other than that, it looks fantastic.

Thanks for sharing this. It looks great and I love to visit Chicago and have the standard tourist fare. I'm checking this out on my next visit.

I learned about Gino's East from Frazod. It's probably my favorite pizza dish.

Several chains have been mentioned, but I don't think anyone has mentioned some of those trendier brick-oven places, like YourPie and MyPie. I'm a fan of the Lineage at YourPie.

I guess I’m spoiled because of my location. But the best..the actual best pizza I’ve ever had was at this place, cafe rustico 726 149th St, Whitestone, NY 11357. I could turn their slice upside down and it would not bend, crunchy and gooey. This place has a bakery right next to it that has all kinds of great fattening shit. Freshly stuffed cannolis and cannoli cupcakes and all kinds of cheesecakes.

I’ve also been to pigsknuckle, where I had Casey’s legendary breakfast pizza :-) no comment

Been to Chicago and I’m not a fan of deep dish.

Do they make Sicilian pizza out there in pigsknuckle proper? Anyone? Buehler?

Here’s a funny story (we call the pizza pies here) I ordered a large pie in Florida like 20 years ago over the phone “sir, we don’t sell pies here. We sell pizzas” :-)

That was interesting, KCU. The sauce looked nearly thick enough to be a chili. I wouldn't mind trying one of those pot pies
