There's even more bad Chicago pizza in Chicago than there is good.


EXACTLY, that's exactly what I am trying to say too....there's plenty of bad "NY Pizza" in NY too. ESPECIALLY outside the city like on Long Island. You have trouble finding good pizza in NYC itself, and on LI, forget about outside the area.

There are really only a handful of places that make good deep-dish pizza, and almost all of them that aren't Pizzeria Uno were started by people who used to work at Pizzeria Uno.

I like Pizza Uno, does that mean I "experienced" "Chicago Pizza"??? :)

In seriousness though, I do like Chicago UNO (the chain), but I don't for a minute think that it's remotely comparable to real Chicago pizza, just because it's deep dish, just like Sabarro, etc isn't "NY Pizza", even if it was started in NY. People eat stuff like Sabarro, or "NY Style" pizza, and then "that" is real NY pizza.

I was using those cities as examples because they're rust belt cities where the culture is similar to Chicago and there are probably a fair number ex-Chicagoans around. The only online reviews I read by Chicagoans were some other random non-Yelp sites, and they specifically cited things that were wrong with the food itself (fake cheese, still-frozen toppings) and not authenticity problems.

That's one of the things wrong with "NY Style" pizza outside NY, and sometimes right in NY's metro area itself...ingredients mean a lot. One of the biggest things that are wrong is the cheese is wrong. The sauce has a lot to do with it, and the crust also. There is some really bad crust out there.
