Wow, **Tuba** , that sounds cool. We’d totally go, but we’re leaving to visit the in-laws on Saturday. Can they move it to Friday please? Thanks.

While I’m here, [here’s a previous thread about Chicago pizza](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=657234):

> [@One Shot at Chicago Pizza. Which restaurant?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/one-shot-at-chicago-pizza-which-restaurant/627020/6):
>
> Here they are in order of my recommendation.
> 
> Giordano’s - Probably the best if you’re only going to do one. Their stuffed pizza is classic Chicago and incredibly delicious.
> 
> Lou Malnati’s - My personal favorite, but not quite the iconic Chicago style. A little thinner than the others.
> 
> Gino’s - Often recommended and often disappointing, IMO. Cheese tends to be rubbery. Sauce too much like Chef Boyardee. However, this is the most touristy spot, and has a pretty good atmosphere.
> 
> Uno’s/Due - Pretty good, but doesn’t hold a candle to Giordano’s or LM’s. Claims to have invented Chicago style pizza, but this is hotly disputed.
> 
> Noteworthy, but not really Chicago style:
> 
> Piece - Makes a good New Haven style. Great beer selection.
> 
> Peaquad’s - Best standard style in the city. Not too expensive.
