NY Style Pizza vs Chicago Pizza (1 Viewer)

I tripped over this link while checking out the wikipedia page on St. Louis style pizza.

Cuisine of the Midwestern United States.

I like this stuff on occasions. It reminds me of the cafeteria pizza we had in school.

Little Caesar's is actually a pretty good discussion point in determining this once and for all. Based on my understanding, the thin pizzas are New York style while the pan pizzas are more Chicago Style. The New York pizzas cost $5 but the Chicago pizzas are $8. That seems to indicate the Chicago ones are better, since they can charge more for them. They're also usually out of stock on the Chicago ones and I have to wait for one but the New York ones are always ready which seems to indicate they sell more Chicago ones as well.

I think anyone that is using Little Caesar's as the barometer here should be excluded from participation in this discussion to begin with.

I'm doubting they make the same number of each each day. They could be out of stock of Chicago because no one evers order them, so they do not make them. Not because they sell more.

They advertise hot and ready so they have to be selling faster than they can make them.

Can we agree that we all like boobs?

I'm not a fan of man boobs.

Or knee slappers.

Or wrinkly old ones.

Not really a big fan of pancake areola or freaky long nipples that you can hang your car keys off of either (but perhaps those are separate categories).

Those pan pizzas are not Chicago style, probably closer to Detroit style.

A lot of people getting all uppity about their inferior pizza in here.

Yeah, probably. But my experience with Chicago Pizza indicates there isn't one true style. For instance here in Lake County the double decker pizza is a relatively popular phenomenon that I haven't seen other places. (I've eaten them in more than one restaurant here - Bill's Pub, RJ's Eatery, and Rosati's - but never anywhere else). So I kind of consider that a Chicago style. Nancy's has their stuffed pizza, which as other people have indicated is distinct from what people consider "Chicago Style", but I consider that to really be in the same family. I don't really think New York "style" is an actual style native to their area either. That's just a hand tossed pizza, everybody does that.

Personally I'd say that no matter what style, Lake County IL is where I want to be for pizza. Last night Giordano's was on the menu, Lou's and Geno's right by as well. I can do a double decker if the mood strikes me, and outside of the magical water you can get a hand tossed pizza anywhere. Every option at my disposal whereas I guess "Chicago Style" is hard to replicate outside of this region. A true pizza Mecca.

 

[shuke]

I ####ing love it all.

Marrion's (Dayton Style?) is my all time favorite.

I've probably only had one pizza in my life that I didn't like. We were on spring break in Daytona Beach in '91 and found a photocopied menu for some place that delivered at 4 AM. There were maybe a dozen pieces of shredded cheese on it. Probably some dude making chef boyardee at his house.

[Woogie Lee]

Just had two slices of Lou M's today for a company lunch. I like one piece and that's it. I had and now I feel like ####. That first piece is really good, but if I want to eat pizza for a meal chicago style is out of the equation.

What is St. Louis style pizza?

Here

Very similar to what we get in Minnesota, and it really is the best.

Can't get into a bunch of toppings piled on a body of christ wafer.

There is a pizza place in the aiport that actually smells bad. I mean, how do you make pizza smell unappetizing?

I think it might be a Sbarro.

Mainly by serving styles that few people would want to eat. This is another downside to what from this thread seems to be "NY Style" distribution. They have to make things like spinach pizza for the few freaks that order stuff like these. And other random topping blends that make no sense to me. Rosati's by me has fallen into the same trap. They do slices at lunch so you go in asking for a normal slice of Pepperoni. Sorry, we're all out, you can wait 10 minutes or we've got a pile of this perfectly disgusting bacon, onion, pineapple travesty that some idiot thought was a good idea but no one has bought.

Bacon, onion and pineapple? Let's not be too hasty. Where can I try some?

 

[Chadstroma]

As someone born and bred in So Cal- I don't understand the NY pizza love, I mean, sure, I like it but nothing special. Chicago style is amazing.

I could go the rest of my life without having NY pizza again. For the period of time that I had moved back to California before moving back to Chicago, I had to have my fix Chicago style fix and had it shipped to me in dry ice.

Why do people try to judge what other people tastes or likes?? Be it pizza, beer, wine, cars,women, if you like it eat it..drink it,drive it, and #### it.

Pizza here blows. The only people in MN who like MN pizza are the rubes who have barely ventured out of their own zipcode.They cut the ####### pizza into squares. ####### squares. So dumb

That has to be one of the worst attempts at applying logic I have ever seen and we are all dumber for having been forced to read it as a part of this thread.

Get out!!! Get out now!!! You know nothing of pizza and you couldn't find logic if it were in your pants.

So, is it time I start the "sauce" vs "gravy" discussion?

 

[fantasycurse42]

Going to Lucali's tonight... Zagat rates it as number 1 in NY - While I'm excited bc it is beyond delicious & I haven't had it in months, I'd prob put it in the top 5 but not 1.

If you're in NY, this place should be on your short list though.

[Soulfly3]

after I rip a bowl, I could eat pizza made of shoe-leather, cigarette butts, and shredded maxi pads - as long as it had solid cheese and sauce on it.

ya'll noogas be way too picky with stoner food.
