Chicago Deep Dish Pizza

Author: admin

Unless you grew up in Chicago, sauce on the top of a pizza may seem a bit strange. Well, not for Lou Malnati! In the business since the early 1940’s, Lou himself worked in Chicago’s very first deep dish pizzeria with his father. After opening his first restaurant in 1971, Lou and his family have continued the tradition, recently opening their 28th pizzeria in the Chicago area. Luckily, for the rest of the nation, Lou’s pizzas can be delivered to your doorstep! With a flaky, buttery crust, rich, whole milk mozzarella, and signature pizza sauce on top, you haven’t experienced a deep dish pizza until you have tried one of Lou’s. My favorite flavor is sausage, which has a large sausage “disc” that covers the entire surface area of the pizza. The spices in the sausage are perfectly blended, and are not too spicy but not too sweet either. I suggest the 4 pizza package for a price of $74.95 (which includes shipping). You will then understand why Lou Malnati’s pizza has been voted “City’s Best” pizza by AOL Cityguide.
