Malnati’s only has one crust. You must be thinking of Giordano’s or Edwardo’s or something if you’re talking about a stuffed pizza. Lou’s makes a standard single-crust deep dish. Also, a Chicago deep dish is supposed to have cheese on the bottom.
But it mixes with the dough and becomes tasteless glop. Not that pizza dough and mozzarella don’t start out as tasteless glops, but the dough should be cooked and the cheese dried and browned.
Um, not that I won’t eat and enjoy any of those pizzas. I just won’t go out of my way for them.
That’s fine, but that’s just not how a Chicago-style deep dish is made. You’re basically asking for a pan pizza, not a deep dish. Tomato sauce always goes over the cheese in a deep dish. I know you’re from Minnesota, so I’ll give you a pass on this and for thinking Lou’s has a double crust. 
(For the record, I’m actually a much, much bigger fan of Chicago-style thin crust pizza. Deep dish is usually way too much for me. I can only have it maybe twice a year. Thin crust I’d eat every other day if my waistline allowed it.)
Also, it’s been ages since I’ve been to My Pie, but isn’t it just a normal Chicago deep dish with the cheese on the bottom and the sauce on top? It sure looks like it from all the pictures.
It’s been 35 years and I’m not sure anymore.
It’s Greek to Me closed just a few years ago, after two location changes a general trailing off of quality.
DeKalb does have a rather good new restaurant called Mediterraneo downtown that serves excellent gyros. I’m pretty sure it’s cut from a processed meat roast (like most gyros), but their meat is definitely a cut above average.
With all this talk of gyros, I’d be remiss not to mention the absolutely best gyros on the planet. That’s right, the planet. They are at Five Faces on Division Street. Nothing better after a hard night of drinking on Rush, especially when paired with an order of cheese fries.
FAIL
Any mention of gyros in the same post as “cheese fries” is immediatly invalidated.
No proper Greek joint with actuall gyros serves “cheese fries”.
Try Hella’s under the Bryn Mawr L sometime. I’ve been goin’ in there for more than 35 years and they have had a consistently REALLY good gyro. If they didn’t, they’d have closed their doors long ago. The place ain’t exactly Alexander the Great’s dining hall. In fact one of the few things that’s changed there over the decades is the angle of the floor. It used to pitch downward to the northeast about six degrees. Now I’m sure it’s up to ten. Besides that, the swarthy young grillmen of the seventies have become a little grayer, and a little less hircine. Oh, and the never-ending soccer match has migrated from a Zenith portable to some Asian-made, high def thing.
Less hircine, or less hirsute? If they’ve become less hircine, that would definitely be an improvement.
–No, I said what I meant, and yes it is.
Stupid nitpick, but this being the Dope, what the hell. It’s Hellas, which is another name for Greece. (Actually, a transliteration of the ancient Greek name for Greece, as in the Hellenic empire.)
Fine. More for me!
Anna, with a user name like that and lacking any side names on my part, one is forced to dump you among the posters who are now, though theoretically well past average, were not fully distracting my hat.
