If I'm ever in Chicago, I will be going there for sure. The pies on the site look oh so tasty. :)

Edit: Holy crap! THEY WILL SHIP A PIZZA NATION WIDE! Before the week's end, I will be ordering one of these babys!

Oh man, I never even noticed that! I'm going to have to jump on that boat as well. Good catch!

Take a flight to Chicago and stand in line for 2 hours to get into Giordano's. No matter how much time or money it takes to get in there, it's so worth it:

http://www.giordanos.com/

I make it my business to get down there once or twice a year. Gino's also makes a good deep dish.

:drools more: aaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwww I'm soo tempted to get one shipped to me, those look delicious

Where's the pepperoni option.. surely that should have made the list!

I like thick crusts, with pepperoni, [...]

[...]

Pepperoni, bacon, and jalape?os is good too.

[...]

null vote, you didnt include pepperoni

Included pepperoni now.

Vote away, guys.

Although pepperoni is obsolete in my book...

Salami and extra peppers, pepper flakes and possibly more hot craziness beats pepperoni hands down!

As a Chicagoan, I would say (along with a lot of people I know) Giordano's is not one of the best places to get deep dish.

Places better than Giordanos:

Lou Malnati's, Uno, and Gino's East (my favorite because they use a corn meal crust)

I agree that Gino's is damn good. I wasn't a big fan of Lou's because the crust isn't as extravagant as some of the other places. And Uno is a pretty big chain, so naturally it doesn't put out the shear quality of an exclusive pizza place. We have a few of those up here and they always neighbor Applebees since it's basically the same idea.

The original locations in Chicago (Uno and Due) are nothing like chain Unos. As a matter of fact, I don't think the chains even serve the same pizza as the originals.

BLT pizza is my favorite.

That's not a pizza, that's a sandwich.

A Chicago-style deep dish pizza is to die for!

And that's not a pizza, that's a pie!

I didn't realise that a Hawaiian pizza was so unheard of...

I had a pizza last night with a work colleague. I just went for ham since we were in a bit of a rush. Normally though I like all kinds. I find the Hawaiian to be a safe bet at new places, but I tend to mix it up quite a bit and try new things. Recently I seem to have taken a liking to this pizzeria which does Gorgonzola and spicy salami. I ask him to throw on some hot peppers as well, it's ace. (Y)

I'll be completely honest--while pepperoni and cheese is pretty much the 'default' or 'go-to' pizza here in North America (well, at least everywhere I've been), I'm not a huge fan of pepperoni anymore. If I have the choice, I'll usually get something without it.

That said, my favourite is probably a mixture of cheddar, mozzarella, and parm, along with bacon (actual bacon strips, not that crumble stuff) and chicken. It's so good. Simple, but tasty.

    • This is how much iPhone 18 Pro could cost after Apple's price hike confirmed

      By Phillip0web · Posted

      They aren't going to want to. Most would just go with the 17 Pro and save money. Why would they want to spend $300 for basically the same thing? It's not worth it if there are hardly any changes from year to year.
    • Windows 11 version 26H2 is now available for testing in the latest preview build

      By Steven P. · Posted

      24H2 rolled out to the Release Preview Channel in early June 2024, so this coming a bit later in the Experimental Channel (formerly Dev) doesn't really say much more than earlier H2 releases that came out in October. I am not sure what the thinking is here by putting it in Experimental, one would think that the 26H2 stamp means features are locked down and it's now bug tested until October? I don't even pretend to understand Microsoft's strategy for Windows Insider Program though
    • Nothing Ear (a) and CMF Buds Pro 2 with active noise cancellation drop to lowest price ever

      By Fiza Ali · Posted

      Nothing Ear (a) and CMF Buds Pro 2 with active noise cancellation drop to lowest price ever by Fiza Ali With Prime Day 2026 scheduled to run from Tuesday 23 to Friday 26 June, Amazon has already begun rolling out early access offers ahead of the main event. Particularly, Nothing Ear (a) and CMF Buds Pro 2 wireless earbuds have dropped to their lowest price ever with limited Prime deal offering 33% and 24% discounts, respectively. Nothing Ear (a) are equipped with 11mm dynamic drivers featuring a PM1 + TPU diaphragm. For noise control, the earbuds offer active noise cancellation (ANC) of up to 45dB across frequencies reaching 5,000Hz. The smart ANC algorithm adapts to surrounding noise levels, while a Transparency Mode allows users to remain aware of their environment when needed. Connectivity is handled via Bluetooth 5.3, with support for AAC, SBC, and LDAC audio codecs. Additional features include IP54-rated earbuds for dust and splash resistance, paired with an IPX2-rated charging case. Furthermore, users also benefit from pinch controls, in-ear detection, Google Fast Pair, Microsoft Swift Pair, dual-device connectivity, and a low-latency mode designed for gaming and video playback. The Nothing X app unlocks a range of customisation options, including a personalised equaliser, bass enhancement, control remapping, ear tip fit testing, firmware updates, dual-device management, a Find My Earbuds feature, and low-latency mode settings. When it comes to the battery, the earbuds house a 46mAh lithium-ion battery, while the charging case contains a 500mAh cell. With ANC disabled, users can expect up to 9.5 hours of playback from the earbuds and up to 42.5 hours in total with the charging case. With ANC enabled, battery life is rated at up to 5.5 hours per charge and up to 24.5 hours combined with the case. Finally, fast charging is also supported that should provide up to 10 hours of playback from a 10-minute charge with ANC turned off. Nothing Ear (a) Wireless Earbuds (Black): $53.20 (Amazon US) - 33% The CMF Buds Pro 2 feature a dual-driver audio system consisting of an 11mm bass driver and a 6mm micro-planar tweeter. The earbuds use PU (polyurethane) and PET (polyethylene terephthalate) titanium-coated diaphragms and are tuned by Nothing to deliver balanced audio performance. They further support active noise cancellation of up to 50dB across a frequency range of up to 5,000Hz, and noise control features include a Smart ANC algorithm, Adaptive ANC, Transparency Mode, and Clear Voice Technology 2.0. For calls, the CMF Buds Pro 2 use a total of six microphones and feature an environmental noise-cancelling algorithm, Clear Voice Technology 3.0, and Wind Noise Reduction 3.0 that should improve voice clarity during conversations. Furthermore, when it comes to the connectivity, it is provided through Bluetooth 5.4. Additional features include an IP55 rating for dust and water resistance, Google Fast Pair, Microsoft Swift Pair, in-ear detection, a low-latency mode, and a Find My Earbuds function. Moreover, through the Nothing X app for Android and iOS, users can access custom EQ settings, a bass enhancement algorithm, customisable controls, Find My Earbuds, low-latency mode, dual-device connectivity, an ear tip fit test, and firmware updates. The earbuds contain a 60mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery, while the charging case houses a 460mAh battery. A full charge of the earbuds and case via USB-C should take approximately 85 minutes, while the earbuds alone should be fully recharged in the case in around 60 minutes. Battery life is rated at up to 11 hours of playback on a single charge and up to 43 hours with the charging case when ANC is turned off. With ANC enabled, playback time is reduced to up to 6.5 hours on the earbuds and up to 26 hours with the charging case. Talk time is rated at up to 6 hours on the earbuds and 25 hours with the case with ANC disabled, or up to 4.8 hours and 18.6 hours, respectively, with ANC enabled.
