(between Michigan Ave & St Clair St)
Chicago, IL 60611
Occasion: After some souvenir shopping on Michigan, we decided to try Gino's East for some deep dish pizza. We just had to compare it with Giordano's and Lou Malnati's. Our last meal in Chicago. 07.04.11
Sausage and mushroom deep dish pizza
After trying this deep dish pizza...I rank Lou Malnati's #1, Giordano's #2 and Gino's East #3. When we first brought up the topic of deep dish pizza...way back in San Francisco, Thomas had mentioned that he disliked Little Star's deep dish because of the cornmeal crust. He talked about deep dish with cornmeal crust and deep dish without. For me I didn't think the cornmeal crust was bad at Little Star Pizza in San Francisco and thought it was no big deal. Here at Gino's East, you can really taste and feel the cornmeal crust. It's definitely noticeable and I can see how some people may not be a fan of that. The cornmeal crust just didn't do it for me here. In Chicago, I'd much rather prefer non cornmeal crust because it makes the crust less crispy and crunchy. Too soft for me.
