      <![CDATA[@DENIS: AS SOMEONE WHO GREW UP WITHIN THE RADIUS OF CHICAGO'S INFLUENCE, I FIND SQUARE CUT PIZZA TO BE AN ABOMINATION SIMILAR TO 'PISS CHRIST'. HOWEVER, I MISS MISS MISS MISS A GOOD PAN PIZZA. EVERYONE ON THE WEST COAST IS MAKING THOSE STUPID SCICILIAN STYLE PIZZAS OR NEW YORK STYLE.

      <![CDATA[So I'm a Chicagoan, and while I don't loathe deep-dish/stuffed pizzas, I don't make a beeline for them, either. Why not? Because it's not what real Chicagoans crave when they return home.<br>
<br>
It's more like our version of Voodoo Doughnuts—the thing we trot out for all the tourists who don't know any better (and only occasionally, if guiltily, enjoy ourselves). <br>
<br>
Real Chicago pizza is thin and crispy: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicago-style_pizza#Thin-crust_pizza" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicago-style&hellip;</a><br>
<br>
And even that can't compare to a good Chicago-style beef sandwich, dripping in juice and slathered in fried green peppers.<br>
<br>
(But Alex *is* correct about the denizens. Especially if he was haunting Rush Street or the Clark Street corridor slinking up through the North Side.)

      <![CDATA["Chicago in the summer feels like you're nestled in the country's underwear." = well said.  <br>
<br>
This is a very perceptive piece on Chicago and Chicagoans.
