Chicago Pizza Recommendations
I will be in downtown Chicago (based around Amtrak station) on Thursday 10/20 awaiting my night time departure on the train.
I would like to try a classic pizza while in Chicago and have about 8 hours (11 AM till 6 PM) to do it. What are the names and nearby locations of some of Chicago's better pizza pies?
Thanks!

Post a thread in CommunityBuzz for lunch or lunch/dinner. There are some great Chicago based FTers that might be willing to join you. ^

This is obviously after the fact, but I'm going to put in a vote for Giordano's - I've been to both the Rush/Superior and Prudential Plaza locations. Excellent deep-dish with sausage!
