Chicago Essential: Giordano's

I'm pretty sure Kenji isn't a fan of the deep dish, but I would love for The Pizza Lab to try their hand at re-creating a Giordano's pizza.

The Best Surface For Baking Pizza, Part 8: Screen and Stone

I too, am a parchment guy. A couple of minutes for the pizza to "set" and slide the parchment off the pizza and it gets nice and crisp from direct contact with the stone.

Old Crow and Coke = Croke
Just ask any reputable (low brow) bartender for a "Croke" and he or she (mostly he) should be able to pour you one...
