From Chicago? Tired of only hearing about deep-dish pizza? We found a few alternatives.
This was a bit of a drive, in rush-hour traffic, no less, but it was worth it. Any place that has the gumption to name its establishment “Chicago’s Original Pizza” better live up to that lofty claim, and this place does. The owner is Tom Lease, a transplant from the ‘burbs of Chicago. This is really a takeout-only place, as the only seating is a single picnic table outside, so there was ample time to chat with Lease as we waited for our order.
Lease related a tradition that I had never heard of, in which the delivery driver got to eat one of the round corner slices as a reward for his driving efforts. Apocryphal? Let’s hope so. In any event, this pizza was extremely good, even if we had to eat it while sitting outside in 40-degree weather. It was the right thinness, the sauce was tasty, the cheese perfect and the sausage perfectly chunked. They don’t offer red onion, only white, but at least that wasn’t diced.
If you want a tomato and cheese casserole, by all means, continue ordering Chicago deep dish. If, however, you’d like to be transplanted back to the corner taverns of Chicago, where Old Style flows freely and tourists are non-existent, give these local spots a try., it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we'd like to keep it that way. With local media under siege, it's more important than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism.
