This is my favorite traditional Chicago-style pizza (see my review of Caffe Florian for a discussion of my favorite pizza in the world). Anybody who lives in Chicago who hasn't had a Giordano's pizza should be ashamed of themselves. Visitors to Chicago should eat at Giordano's. For many people, a single slice is enough, since it's about 3 inches thick and weighs half a pound. Deep dish pizza takes a while, but the Giordano's in Hyde Park is supernaturally slow. I mean slooooooooooooooooow. Soooooo slooooooooow. So B yer own B and be prepared to wait for you pizza, and your menus, and glasses, and the check, and anything else that you might reasonably expect to be delivered to your table in the course of an evening of dining.
