I love pizza. Thin crust. Chicago deep dish. NY pizzas. Detroit pan pizza. I love it all…

California

Vesta, in Redwood City was delicious. Also, BTS ate there three times. We missed them by 30 minutes. Le sigh.

Ozzy’s Apizza in Glendale has awesome New Haven style pizza. It looks basic but it’s anything but.

Truly pizza in Orange County has really great thin crust pizza. Of all the pizzas I ate there, the Skinny Margherita was the best. Don’t waste your money on the other ones.

Illinois

For me, it’s a toss up between Pequod’s and Gino’s East. I absolutely love Chicago deep dish pizza. That thick buttery crust and San Marzano sauce on top is so fucking good.

The next time I’m in Chicago, I want to try Burt’s Place for pizza (recommended by the late Anthony Bourdain)… plus they have cheese curds.

Minnesota

Pow Wow Grounds Coffee has a unique type of pizza made with fry bread instead of regular pizza dough. Their menu and ingredients aren’t always stocked adequately so you get what you get. Side note, I haven’t been there in two years so IDK if they still offer the fry bread pizzas anymore.

During my vegetarian phase, I was obsessed with Davanni’s. Don’t judge. It’s a chain but tell me why their veggie pizza, cheese hoagie, and garlic cheese bread were so good? I was a working student at the time but damn if it didn’t hit the spot. I might have to go back the next time I’m in MSP just for nostalgia’s sake.

New York

Joe’s Pizza Broadway, there’s always a line out the door but rest assured, the line goes by quick. The place is chaotic in a good way. Five Star and I got the veggie pie. The pizza slices are huge and foldable without getting soggy. There are a lot of celebrities that frequent the joint and it’s also where Peter Parker (Spider-Man 2) worked as a delivery boy.

There was a pizza place in Brooklyn that I really liked that my friend took me to but they closed up shop since the pandemic.

    I used to buy frozen pizza at the grocery store and ALWAYS hated it! But I kept buying it right? Thinking it was some treat…..nein! Here, we have Louis Pizza across the street, I talk to the dough guy, I worked with the wife of another cook there. It’s GOOD!!! And there’s Sukkar House https://share.google/UBwTUKBCoifxDlTBP
    AMAZING thin crust!!!

    I was brought up for the most part by an Italian family, so anything pizza or pasta related? I’m 10000% in. Even though, Econos, for the most part, have these ginormous calzones (drooling now 😂) I like Pizza Pizza for their stuffed crust and their gooey panzos yum 🤤 but Palace Pizza is soooooo good too omggggg 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

    1. justrojie Avatar

      calzones are good too but for some reason i do prefer pizzas!

      Thank you!!

    These photos look good.

    I eat pizza once in a very blue moon. Maybe that explains why I’m not fussy about the toppings. 😀

    1. justrojie Avatar

      Sometimes I’ll get gluten free pizza too but usually they don’t taste the same lol

    No comment on Davanni’s! But I’m sad that there wasn’t a louder shoutout to Minnesota style pizza. That thin, pliable, slightly greasy, slightly crispy, super foldable crust that’s topped with cheese from border to border. And then cut into squares instead of slices. My favorite pizza is homemade but I’m still working on getting the crust right.

    1. justrojie Avatar

      Any places in mn that you would recommend?? I’ll try to check it out the next time I’m there

      😂 oh noooo maybe you can order something??

    There are those who say that sex and pizza are a lot alike. Even when they’re bad, they’re still pretty good.

    1. justrojie Avatar

      Ain’t that the truth 🤣

    There was an Italian restaurant that had an ‘off menu’ pizza – Sicilian style, or rectangular and halfway between thin crust and deep dish. You paid more for it, but it was good.

    Sadly, the place closed a couple of years ago.

    But on the bright side, even bad pizza is better than no pizza, and there are plenty of other pizza places around here.

    1. justrojie Avatar

      that is true! i don’t think i’ve had pizza so bad that i had to stop eating it

      1. ianmdudley Avatar

        Even Little Caesars is worth finishing.

        If it’s still warm, anyway…

        1. justrojie Avatar

          only the puffs with extra sauce on the side

    Also, a friend introduced me to Indian pizza not too long ago – a fusion of Indian cuisine and the Italian pie.

    I was skeptical, but it turned out to be pretty good!

      ooh i’ve had pizza on naan before and it was quite tasty!

      1. ianmdudley Avatar

        Ooh. I’ve never had it on naan. That sounds good!

        1. justrojie Avatar

          make it a garlic naan and you’re in business

          1. ianmdudley Avatar

            Ooh! That’s a great idea!

    Fry bread looks so interesting and delicious. But it doesn’t look the healthiest. Fry bread pizza…. I’m going to look it up because I’m dying to see what it looks like.
