#thin crust

LIVE

There’s a long, storied history surrounding Chicago deep dish pizza, and I’ve done my fare share of “research” into it over the years. While Pequod’s is a personal favorite, I’ve always enjoyed the pies at Lou Malnati’s as well, which many of my friend’s feel is the best. But just last week I discovered that there’s another Malnati, Rudy Malnati Jr., who runs a small chain of Pizano’s Pizza restaurants around the Windy City!

With one shop just a short walk from the McCormick Convention Center, I popped in with a few colleagues for a Meat Lover’s deep dish…

Packed with sausage, bacon, pepperoni and Canadian bacon, the spinkle of dried oregano on top was a nice touch.

The menu also claims that Oprah herself voted Pizano’s thin crust pizza the best in Chicago, so we ordered and enjoyed a sausage and mushroom pie…

Everything was delicious, the staff was delightful, and we had a lunch to remember. Pizano’s definitely lives up to their legacy, which you can read about here:https://www.pizanoschicago.com/about-pizanos/
