I've been living in Chicago since December. I hope you have fun. It's a hell of a town.

Chicago deep dish pizza is not a pizza but a damn awesome casserole.

Pretty much this. Personally, I'll take pizza over a casserole any day.

If you're still interested in finding good pizza places, it's a shame you won't be visiting NYC, which is the pizza capital in all the US.


New York is our next vacation! Smile


Let's assume it's a mixture of the two!

Little Caesars $5 pizza is way better than both Chicago and New York pizza.

I've never had Chicago or New York pizza, so I'm going to have to agree.

The best pizza is left over from Ninja Turtles gangbangs.

Edmonton is lacking in quality pizza, our best pizza joint is called "Chicago Deep Dish" and while it is a delicious thick crusted pizza I am assuming it is nothing close to what real deep dish pizza is like.

my trip is getting closer, im pretty excited, Canada doesnt get things like running water or cars.

I am just fortunate that the princess of canada was rescued from tooth decay in time for the wedding.

The Royal Guard must have worked the most intense magic they had in order to pull that off.

A quick check shows that the US dollar is currently worth .0029 cents more than the Canadian one.

If you seriously believe any kind of franchise pizza is better than local, mom n' pop restaurant pizza, you've obviously never been to the northeast U.S.

anyhow, since im broke most of the time, i can dig the $5 pizza deal more so than other pizza places. is the pizza that great? no.. not really, but for $5 i really dont have much room to complain.

God, I know it's a joke, and it's funny, but there are people who genuinely believe that


So here's to you Mrs. Robinson. People love you more- oh, nevermind.

Well I am back in Canada but Chicago was definitely awesome, thanks everyone for the wonderful suggestions on where to go Smile we really enjoyed the Shedd Aquarium. The Navy Pier was a lot of fun too, I also found a pretty sweet anniversary present for my gf on the Mag Mile. The people were also very friendly, I think its unfair that Americans seem to get this stigma that they are all rude, arrogant and obnoxious because that just simply isnt true. All in all it was a great experience and an amazing trip. I definitely look forward to my trip to NY
