Stopped into the Pizza Center and had two slices and a diet Coke at the counter a couple of weeks ago. Just like being a kid again... and still boxes and boxes all over the place.

Except when we were kids that would have cost what, a buck, maybe $1.25 for 2 slices and a drink.
Obviously haven't been into the PC in some time, but I'll guess its a little more these days.

First of all Chicago >>>> NY pizza any day.

My fav in Chicago is Pequod's. Deep dish is good, but especially like their thin crust. Mmmm!

I made some awesome homemade grilled pizza last night.
Spicy tomato sauce, really nice motz, a little smoked gouda, red peppers, caramelized onions, kalamata olives, and some sliced tomato.

Mmmmm!

We make our own pizza.

The best pizza I ever bought was in 2006. After the PJ show in Bologna we were walking in the rain to get back to our hotel in Casalecchio di Reno. We found a restaurant (name?) open even though it was late.

The pizza was magnificent! It was right from a very hot, wood fired oven and was topped with simple tomato sauce, basil leaves and slices of fresh buffalo mozzarella melted on a deeply browned crust. Bellissimo!

i had pizza friday....it was served cold, although the waitress said she watched it come out of the oven and grabbed it as soon as it did....what a lie.

it ended up being free....

I hate this argument/debate - chicago-style/New York-style(which isn't a style, it's just the regular version a/k/a not Chicago-style) = Apples/Oranges

oranges > apples

Kalamatas are a tasty purple olive from Greece. They are more of a table olive, but they're also awesome on pizza! Mmmmm!

Pequod's is so good. The deep dish is the best...that crust is to die for!

Pizza there and pizza here is probably way different. The only place you can get a large pizza for $10 is like Dominos...or $5 at Little Ceasers..but that is NOT "real" pizza (not by Chicago standards at least!!)

I remember getting pizza for $10. Back in college and while wasted after the bars. We'd order up the cheapest pizza we could get our hands on. At the time (drunk as shit) it was good, but MAN...it was terrible pizza!

Chicago has some of the best pizza I've ever had.... Your homemade one sounds pretty good too. Its a good vegetarian one.

Grimaldi's...once you've had it all other pizza just seems so whatever.

Grimaldi's opened a location here in Fort Myers last winter and I must say it is definitely good. That said, the best here was Salvatore's before they closed down. Now, my favorite is Birdies Pizza.

My favorite pizza place ever is Mario's Pizza in Winston-Salem and Greensboro, NC. Mmm.

Dominos / Pizza Hut here cost $5-$7.

The very high quality real pizza's at restaurants here are $10 average.

Yeah, I don't eat red meat...and even when I did I preferred veggies on my pizza anyways. You also have a many more creative options using veggies than you do meat.

I'm already hungry for more pizza! hahaha!
