Last night's dinner.

Remember kids, a proper pizza is able to cast a shadow.

**Viva** · 10-03-2006, 10:04 AM

That ain't no pizza, that's a spare tire.

**Sutter** · 10-03-2006, 10:19 AM

That looks so fuggin' good.....

**Tippster** · 10-03-2006, 10:29 AM

Deep Dish - the fat whore of the pizza world.

**Dantheman** · 10-03-2006, 10:30 AM

Did you invite your cardiologist over to help you finish it off?

Never had a real deep dish before but that looks pretty damn good. What kind of goodies is that thing filled with?

Remarkably, the Italians seem to espouse the opposite, and make em as flat as possible.

Where's it from?

On a related note, I heard they cleaned up Gino's. True?

**phUnk** · 10-03-2006, 10:49 AM

And I bet you ate the whole thing.

Giordano's.

They closed the original Gino's East location and moved to the former Rainforest Cafe building. It sucks ass now and is nothing more than a tourist trap.

i bet that'll run through ya like lightning

**Woodsy** · 10-03-2006, 11:03 AM

thats not fuggin pizza thats tomatoe and cheese cake.....

**steve** · 10-03-2006, 11:09 AM

what you have there ain't pizza - but it does remind me a little of pizzarustica - which is more of a pie than pizza. yum.

**shmerham** · 10-03-2006, 11:13 AM

The deep dish is the Ford Expedition of pizza. Bigger is not necessarily better. Nonetheless, that looks infinitely better than any pizza I've seen here in Seattle (save for one at this restaurant I went to last week).

You say that like its a bad thing.

That sucks about Gino's.

Edit: Real pizza or not, the shits gooooooood, and that is the end of the story.

**Schmear** · 10-03-2006, 11:18 AM

I thought you were a Lou Malnati's guy. Sometimes I think I don't even know you.

**mitch buchannon** · 10-03-2006, 12:32 PM

Giordano's is about a block from his house... can't blame him.

I definitely the miss pizza. And copious amount of sluts at clubs.

**quienes?** · 10-03-2006, 01:02 PM

amen Woodsy. That ain't pizza. It's a cheesecake made to look like a pie. Thin crusters unite! A loaf of Wonder bread is never an ingredient in pizza.

**Lurch** · 10-03-2006, 01:10 PM

If you can't find it in Napels it's not pizza!

**Arty50** · 10-03-2006, 01:17 PM

So I've got a question. In my mind, that's not a deep dish pizza, that' Chicago Style. To me, deep dish just means lots of dough with a normal top. Not stuffed like Chitown style pie. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

And while Chigaco style pizza can be very good, the Iwops have it right. Thin with the perfect little hint of crispiness.

ummh yeah...this just in, they cleaned up the South Side, too.

Truth, is that Lou Malnati's?

**Schmear** · 10-03-2006, 01:48 PM

He said it was Giordano's. That ain't Lou's crust.

Lou's crust is a thing of beauty, but truth be told, Giordano's pizza is better as a whole. If they could merge Lou's crust to Giordano's pie you'd have the uber Chi-town pizza.

I did grow up on Lou's, but as mitch said g's is a block from my loft and given last nights hurricane like storm I wasn't going very far.

I thought Deep Dish = Chicago Style. Lots of dough sounds like a half-ass attempt (like Uno's, for the DC/MD mags) of a real Chicago-style deep dish.
