I will try it as I'm always up for new combinations but am not holding out much hope that the marriage of pizza & honey will be a winner for me. I disagree with the statement it is like Chicago pizza, Detroit style isn't anywhere close to Chicago thick crust (& to further split hairs, Chicago thick crust consists of two styles, Pan or Stuffed)
Detroit pizza is closer to Sicilian style pizza, which is a thick crust (but a VERY light/airy crust, compared with the denser crust of Chicago thick), sparse sauce/toppings. Buddy's pizza is a good Detroit Style pizza chain, a more nationwide Detroit style would be Jet's.

Also Little Caesar's Deep Deep Dish pizza. (Yes, I'm not ashamed to admit I order it when the kids are having friends over.) Occasionally, I see that they offer packets of a powdered mix of salt, sugar, and spices that you put on top of the pizza. I tried it once, and I probably wouldn't put on a pizza again.

There's a great pizza place called "B Side Pizza" in Hell's Kitchen that has a fantastic pizza with honey:
Killer Bee
tomato, mozzarella, sopressata, garlic puree, chili oil, honey

A side comment: Why should it be named pizza ? What's next: Thanksgiving Dinner with Wild Boar Steak?

I had a lovely pizza in New London at Two Wives with goat cheese, roasted walnuts, sliced pear and drizzled with honey. A while back I had a white pizza (can't remember where) with lots of roasted garlic, duck and honey.

At the Sierra Nevada Taproom I was served some house-made ranch dressing with my pizza, which I never would have tried on my own. Was delicious. Not honey, but worth trying. I just dipped the pizza into the ranch dressing.

I also abhor pineapple and sweet toppings on pizza in general, but for some reason honey works really well. Especially spicy honey when there are meats present

From an early age, Southern children learn to dip everything in ranch dressing. Pizza included. When Mrs BV was a teacher in Tennessee, all cafeteria pizza was served with ranch on the side. I'm pretty sure the children wouldn't have eaten it without.

I had a pepperoni and warm honey pizza the other day. It was pretty good, but I didn't think the honey really added anything to it.
