Just wait until you’ve heard about the war crime that is Ohio Valley-style pizza

    1. Cold is wrong and I dunno where the hell you you went. Cold is extremely wrong.

    2. I’m from Chicago and really it would save everyone a lot of trouble if we didn’t call it pizza. Honestly, we usually don’t. If you want pizza, you say pizza. If you want deep dish, you say deep dish. If someone said we were having pizza and then a deep dish pizza showed up, I would be pleasantly surprised, but I would still be surprised.

    3. No, it’s nothing like Sicilian style pizza.

    4. Greasy crust? Seriously where the hell did you go?

      I live in the Chicago burbs but I can confirm we usually just say deep dish pizza instead of Chicago style

      Wish I could remember, but I do recall they set us up in their basement and there were basically no alternatives aside from the pizza and salads. If I ever go back for another try of deep dish, I’ll make sure it’s to a place I don’t recognize 😆 I’m sure it’s not all bad, but maybe it isn’t pizza after all.

        No worries, food is very personal. But yeah, from your description it sounds like you managed to find one of the few places serving bad deep dish. Which, honestly, now that I think of it, is rather impressive. I haven’t been to a bad place yet, but your description sure doesn’t sound good!
