Drroogh Posted August 16, 2019 Report Share Posted August 16, 2019 So here is a writer that claims Detroit style pizza is superior to both Chicago and New York style! What is your favorite style? https://www.msn.com/en-us/foodanddrink/foodnews/sorry-detroit-style-pizza-is-way-better-than-deep-dish-or-a-new-york-slice/ar-AAFRh3h?ocid=spartandhp Have to say I'm not a fan of either Chicago or New York so this writer may be on to something. Although, after attending my son's October wedding in the Chicago area I may change my mind! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zlinedavid Posted August 16, 2019 Report Share Posted August 16, 2019 Going to betray my Midwestern roots here and say I like NY style better. Why? Portability. Pizza is often eaten while doing other things. A big slice of NY style can be eaten one handed while walking. Chicago style is good, but I tend to think about it more like lasagna VS pizza. Need to be sitting down, fork required and its going to be a big meal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milehiiu Posted August 16, 2019 Report Share Posted August 16, 2019 I grew up in NW Indiana. Where ii was thin crust. Always cut in squares. Have even driven back to NW Indiana in the past. To frequent the places I grew up, serving thin crust, cut into square. Most of the thin crust pizza placed here in Denver, look at me like I am crazy, if I ask to cut it into squares. However, there is a place in Englewood, Colorado, not far from my house. Been in business for 50 years. When I ask to have thin crust (all they sell), cut into squares, say : "squares it is, it tastes better that way". Introduced to Chicago Deep dish years later. I love that as well. Lou Malnati. Then I got to Colorado. And was introduced to my favorite of all. Colorado Mountain Pie. Served with honey. To pour on your crust. As a desert.

Drroogh Posted August 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 Who remembers Anchovies? When I was young it seemed like every pizza place in the Region had Anchovies as a Standard ingredient! Now a days nobody knows what Anchovies are?

Drroogh Posted August 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 Have to say I am a Pizza fan! Although I am not even close to being any kind of Pizza expert! I just enjoy pizza even if it isn't close to being on a Keto diet! Have to say of all the pizzas I've eaten the 'Tackle Box' at Anglers Haven south of Hayward Wisconsin is still my all time favorite! http://www.anglershavenresort.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can understand, just by reading the menu, why you feel the way you do about that place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 Couple things. Betraying my Chicago roots on 2 fronts. First.....IF I eat any kind of pizza it has to be thin. I enjoy tasting the ingredients, meats,etc...besides just bread, sauce, cheese. Secondly though and this is the biggest. I'm not really a pizza guy.

milehiiu Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 So funny. We have a "Pizza King", close to my house. Not a chain. His name is Frank. Mentioned him in my first post in this thread. Where they don't look at you as if you are crazy, if you ask them to cut your pizza into squares. Frank is my "Pizza King".

milehiiu Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 24 minutes ago, btownqb said: Pizza king would work then Neat. Not every pizza place goes to the effort of getting Provel cheese. And good to know, especially if you can take advantage of it We used to have two legit St. Louis style pizza joints here in the Denver area, who flew in Provel Cheese, to insure authenticity. One. Called Arches, for the St. Louis Arch. Opened and closed before I could make it there. The other, City Pizza, in Arvada, just closed after many years. I did make it there, though it was a drive. Some people don't care for the taste of the provel cheese, nor the cracker thin crust. It's for sure, not New York style. However, I love it. And if another true St. Louis style pizza place would open close to me, I would be there in a flash. Also, I believe, Colonial Crester, the creator and owner of Hoosier Sports Nation, and who used to live in Missouri, before moving to Arizona, could tell us more, I am sure.
