    Chicago..giordano's pizza.

    I can't be dealing with having a communion wafer as a crust, either.

    I'm from Long Island and I've been to Chicago many times, frequented Giordano's and Gino's. I love Chicago.

    But that's not pizza. It's like a pie with tomato filling and cheese for icing. I can eat about once slice before I feel like I'm going to puke.

    This. If you can't eat it with your hands, it's not pizza!

    I totally prefer New York pizza. But I live in NC, so I can't get REAL NY pizza down here.

    Neither. They both suck. I grew up in Louisiana though,so the food sucks everywhere else you go from there.

    Though, stylistically, I like both depending on my mood...my favorite pizza in LA(and that's Louisiana as opposed to L.A.) is a New York style from a local chain, whereas here in TX it's more deep dish style.

    From a resteraunt/pizzeria, it's Chicago style all the way if I'm eating to enjoy it.

    Would that be Brooklyn Pizzeria on Vets?? I'm from N.O. and think the same as you; anywhere outside of LA does not compare to the flavor and variety of our food!

    Okay...Chicago has the best hands down. You want deep dish...Giordano's have everyone beat. You like thin crust...Beggar's Pizza is the place to go. You want to try something different...get shrimp and sausage on your pizza. Oh yeah..it's that good!

    If I have to pick between those two, definitely New York style!

    But I love a real, authentic Neapolitan pizza even more!

    So you say NY style pizza sucks, but your favorite place is a pizzeria that serves NY style pizza and is even called Brooklyn.... Makes no sense. :huh: :noway:

    I like both... deep dish with pepperoni from Gino's in Chicago is pretty yummy BUT my favorite is a good ol New York slice! No one does it like NYC.
