Speaking as a Chicago native, I never heard if Chicago-style deep dish pizza until I left Chicago. So go figure, actually thin crust is more Chicago style as far as I can tell. New York pizza sucks IMHO.

Ike Sewell invented the deep dish "Chicago" pizza in 1943 at the corner of Ohio Street and Wabash Avenue in Chicago. I like it myself, but I hear you when you say it's not authentic Chicago pizza. Thin crust is good too.

Now as for New York pizza, to each his own. ;-)

Same here. Now, if you want a treat once in a while you have to go to Geno's East for a deep dish pie. Unbelievable.

Chicago pizza is Giordano's stuffed pizza. Since 1974 there is no other.
