Chicago is famous for its deep dish pizza. Chicago-style deep-dish pizza is baked in a specialized, round pan resembling the type used for baking a cake, typically 1 1/2 inches deep one point five inches (3.8 cm). The pan gives the pizza its characteristically high edge and a deep surface for the large amounts of cheese and chunky tomato sauce. Most pizzerias in Chicago also serve thin-crust pizza in a style characteristic to the city, although Chicago-style pizza is most commonly known for the deep-dish style of pizza outside the Chicago metropolitan area.
Giordano's Pizzeria
if you're looking for the biggest, thickest, meatiest, cheesiest, and most awe-inspiring pizza in the area, it's hard to deny the power of Giordano's. This mammoth pizza weighs almost three pounds, and can easily feed a whole family. Though the sides are tall and imposing, the tender and flaky crust is remarkably thin on the bottom, which leaves more room for toppings and cheese. Speaking of which, prepare to be gobsmacked by the amount of cheese here. This is not a reasonable pizza; this is event pizza. It's designed to leave you speechless.
