CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted June 14, 2022 Author Share Posted June 14, 2022 Top 4 in the lineup had 9 hits. Pollock 2, Vaughn 2 + a BB, Robert 2 and Abreu 3 + a BB. Burger's X-Rays from the HBP/swing were negative . Leury 3 hits. Reese McGuire with a real nice sac bunt on a tough pitch that turned into 2 runs + a double. Mendick with an RBI hit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People that say deep dish isn't pizza haven't tried the unholy abomination that is St. Louis style pizza. Also, since I'm dragging it so much, I should note that their other local foods are the bomb. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPR Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 I once sold my soul to eat at the first aurelios in homewood. Then I moved to Orland Hills, and not the park, and I found jets pizza around 183rd or so. Now I’ve been in mesa for better part of a decade and am glad we have jets out here. Chicago looking overrated with enricos Aurelios of homewood malnatis from the north side.

South Side Hit Men Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 Most Chicagoans eat tavern cut, not stuffed pizza. Mainly limited to the downtown tourist joints. Tony & Lill's and Father and Son's were my favorites but have closed, La Villa and Dino's are the current call. Would love to try Vito & Nick's. Cheese and sausage, and any vegetables except mushrooms work for me. La Villa (on Pulaski between Addison & Irving). Dino's (On Higgins a few blocks east of Harlem) 2 1 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also find it amazing that Chicago people would possibly call deep dish "Chicago Style". What are you, 17? Chicago style is thin crust, tavern style, cut in squares. Almost always well done, with a crunchy crust. Edited June 14, 2022 by Paulie4Pres 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chick Mercedes Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 I worship my Chicago pizza. But there is a place out in Phoenix called Spinato’s, and it’s as good as anything out there in Chicago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 I do really like Detroit style but it’s similar to deep dish for me in that it’s a “mood” pizza. Would much rather have a tavern style most days of the week. But when the jets hits, it hits good. Basically “60% of the time it works every time” type stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogan873 Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 I think my favorite style of pizza is the true Chicago style - thin crust, tavern style. But I really like the Detroit style with the thicker crust and caramelized edges. If I'm in the mood for that, I could demolish a whole pie...and lapse into a pizza coma. When I lived in Baltimore, there was a pizza joint in Fells Point that stayed open after all the bars closed. They sold the New York style thin, floppy slices as big as your head for like $2. After a night of drinking, nothing tasted so good. Back to the game, Lynn's performance overall wasn't bad. If you just look at the stats, you'd be satisfied with it considering it's his first game back from surgery and the IL. It just looked uglier watching it, manly due to the first inning. His blowup at McEwing seemed to energize him and the team. Glad to have the big bastard back. Abreu continues to own Detroit, and that's good to see. Mendick, McGuire, and Leury all had nice games. And the bullpen, against a bad offensive team, did what they needed to do. We'll take the win, and two more against this team would be great.

Stuffed is Chicago style too, it’s for everyone. But week in week out on poker night its thin. A lot of Chicago folks have been saying that about stuffed pizza I don’t understand unless its a way of pizza sneering at out of towners. But you can’t eat it that often unless you want to weigh 255 😎 Edited June 14, 2022 by Chick Mercedes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeC Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 Chicago Style Pizza = thin crust. I grew up on Rosangela's, but then discovered Vito & Nick's later in life. Rosangela's "travels" better (takeout), but V&N is hands-down the best. They'll also half-bake it for you to take home and finish in your oven. Chicago Style Deep Dish = made for tourists and high school kids who learned how to ride the L or Metra on their own for the first time to go out to eat downtown. Detroit Style = also very good. If ever in Detroit, do Buddy's for the "original" experience. If you're looking for Neapolitan pizza, go to Pizzaplex in Detroit's Mexicantown neighborhood. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
