Chicago's Best Dining Experiences
Thanks for posting this list.
I didnt even know the ladies liked sushi.... a lot are squeamish about it. Can I really get laid from this obsession?
what is this?? I am new to the slice game, oh man this sounds good. I hope to see you next year.
I will not fall for another april fools day joke. I swear I hate this holiday, there's not even any food to go along with it!
wow. that looks wild. I wonder how many rings of onions are inside of it or if it's chopped.
I've heard its the greatest pizza ever. yeah yeah... but I still want to find out. I heard word from some old forge aficionados that teh places to go are "arcaro & genell" and Revellos. My next trip upstate I am going on an old forge food adventure.
That tuna with mashed on top was certainly a trip. I probably should have had it at the beginning rather than the end of the night.
I hope they do it again.
Not a fire. Even the pic on MetroMix NYC shows a long that long and the people are different.
If this was taken Saturday afternoon, as I believe it was, the crowd was much augmented by a fire, which caused the evacuation of the YMCA down the block.
I am researching a paper on Pennsylvania pizzerias inspired by an article I found linked from Slice:

I assume--but have not confirmed--that the state's oldest pizzerias are in Philly and Pittsburgh. However, outside these metropolitan areas, my sifting through old city directories in the State Library showed that Hazleton appears to have some of the earliest pizzerias. The three listed in 1948 (under bakeries, not restaurants) are Petruzzi's Home Delivery Pizzeria, Neapolitan Pizzeria and Tas-tee Pizzeria.
Damn my procrastination! Maybe I'll just walk by and wave at ya'll in the window as I drool on the pavement. Bon appétit, kids!
I've had Old Forge Pizza before --- you need to go to the right places. Try Old Forge Pizza Express --- they're new but I had it the last time I was in town and it was fantastic. They sell it as a take and bake so you can make it in your home --- nothing like a hot pizza coming out of your oven.
Adam- I went last year. You and ed have to investigate. see my report from last august. www.chowhound.com/topics/305174
^ Ellios = Old Forge Pizza? What did you do for a living? Fire eater? Do you have any taste buds left? The Wyoming Valle which contains the town of Old Forge, host some of the best pizza in the country . I've had pizza in NYC, NJ, Md. Fla. Ca. Nothing comes close. Its not only the square pizza thats great around here we also have the most variety of round pizza. I have friends and relatives all over this country and they all tell me theres nothing like our pizza. Anyone that says contrary are far and few between. Don't take ^ post serious as he must have a pizza shop in NYC.
Benlee, as I stated in my post, gas was the very least of my problems! Cold sweat, cramping, and other things too gross to get into here.
The comments on this post have really degenerated into an all-out shetshow in just a matter of minutes. You fart-huffers need to get it figured out before you finish off what's left of the ozone layer.
