Chicago deep dish is awesome, but I wouldn't really consider it pizza. I went to school in the midwest (Grinnell, Iowa) so Chicago was only 2 hours away. I ate at all the spots, including Lou's; really good. The best place I had in NYC was Lombardi's. This was the most similar to pizza I had in Italy, only better. Cooked to a cripsy perfection, seasoned, and having an amazingly sweet sauce from the imported San Marzano tomatoes. Also I'm from South Florida so I have no hometown bias.
