Finding the Best Chicago Pizza in San Francisco

shamurai:

Chicago prefers the strong; it’s architecture, winter cold, summer heat, and, most of all, the flavors. As a Chicago expat living in San Francisco, I was excited to see a Chicago style pizza joint open in my sleepy neighborhood. When I shared the news about Patxi’s new Noe Valley location with Daniel Raffel, a friend and also former Chicagoan, a debate about the best local deep dish pizza ensued.  Daniel argued feverently for Little Star.  Very soon we were at an impass, the result of a fiery conversation comparing the San Francisco ‘Chicago facsimiles’ to the likes of Lou Malnati’s, Ginos, and Giradanno’s. There was, in fact, one way to settle it: a show down.

Being from Chicago and also digging both Patxi’s and science, I really enjoyed reading this. I salute you all.
