    Whatcha got there Speedy? Another Lou's?
    It is. 
    1st time trying spinach and mushroom. 
    It was pretty disappointing. On a scale of 1/10? It gets a 4.

    I would guess you cannot go veg with Lou's. The problem with tomatoes, spinach and mushrooms is the water. It dilutes the sauce makes it mushy if not cooked down before building the pizza. Oil from sausage, pepperoni, or cheese crisps the crust and is full of flavor. I probably would have given that more time in the oven and then a blast under the broiler. But still probably better than any deep dish or frozen pizza available near you!

    say what you will about chains, but man, I grabbed a Domino's last night and I love it. 

    There is a time and place for Domino's. Like when you land at an airport and get to your hotel room starving at 12 am and there are no other options. Or if you are in the middle of nowhere and everything closes at 7pm. And I have to get their tiny soft wings with ranch and mango habanero dipping sauce even if I order a large pie. Last time ordered was near Norcross Georgia and the bill was like $56! Plus tip. But I was glad to have hot food.

    But Crojam is 100% right about the output. You can still perceive those processed ingredients in the air. And maybe other places. TMI I know. 
    I don't have the same output issues with Domino's. haha. Maybe Canadian domino's is different. 
    Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer

    I am the opposite. There are tons of local pizza places within a short walk from me. But no chains. There used to be this one Dominoes in my neighborhood. But it closed down. No need for it.

    You live in the city correct? There should never ever ever be a need for you to have any chain pizza. And skip the $1.50 slices unless you have overindulged.

    Yes. I live in Manhattan. I never do the $1.50 slices. The place I go to the most has $3-4 dollar slices depending on what you get. It is really good. I was in Seattle recently and there was a place that advertised New York style slices. It was $7.00 a slice. I told them that I have never seen a pizza place in NYC charge $7.00 a slice. That is crazy.

    Yeah that happens. Even an artichoke slice by the highline is pricey. I know some NY folks will not agree, but I love Two Boots. The Tony Clifton is one of my favorite slices ever.  I miss their GCT location. It was perfect for the train. And they made great takeaway cocktails.

    Two Boots in the East Village is right down the block from me. They used to have a full on restaurant as well but it closed over 20 years ago. There used to also be a video rental area in the pizza place. Lots of cool Indie films to rent. In the last few years the sizes of the pizzas have shrunk and the prices have gone up. They also got rid of the whole wheat crust option. It’s still good but I find myself going there less and less.

    The Highline turned into a tourist trap and Gentrified the whole area so I can see that being a $7 slice around there.  It runs through Chelsea, Hudson yards and into the Meat packing district.  Nice places to eat but not exactly something I'd consider affordable.

    I'd try that slice just because it's an Andy Kaufman homage!

    I love tomatoes on everything...except pizza. I just can't do it. 
    The tomatoes were not good.
    They entire pie was kinda yuck! 

    I assumed that you added some of your own ingredients. That's what came on Lou's?

    I always order the "Chicago Classic" from Lou's. Sausage, extra cheese and a butter-crust. But for some reason its no longer available on the frozen that I have shipped.
    So now I just order the sausage, and its delicious. I just prefer the butter crust.

    Anyway, I decided to order 4 sausage and 2 spinach and mushroom. Something different. Spinach was not good.

    But if I want deep dish spinach from Chicago delivered I will order from Giordano's. Its the best spinach deep dish I have ever had. 

    And that spinach with the tomato slices is exactly how that pie arrived.
    Take me piece by piece.....
    Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....

    This is a place I'd try once after reading the other slices.  Not much I would enjoy as I like traditional pizzas.

    This is something I could picture in Williamsburg.

    The Meg had me cracking up though.

    The Tony Clifton is my go to with Two Boots. They have a crust that is different from many NYC places. In a good way. $34 for a large pie. Yowza!

    It's a specialty place, not a pizza shop, in the heart of expensive city, lol.  
    When we were working on the WTC and getting B'fast in the morning a B&E was $6.  This was 12 years ago too!
    Location, location, location.

    We ended up finding a cart that was half the price.  Last time we went in that ripoff deli.
