[ThePresence]

Obviously inspired by this thread.

NY

Not that I live in either place, but I prefer NY style over Chicago.

 

[nageov3t]

NY ftw.

deep-dish pizza is just too.... I don't know. heavy.

 

[mugs]

NY style
then California style (very thin, flaky crust)
THEN Chicago style

 

[Syringer]

Italian.

 

[StevenYoo]

New York.

 

[b0mbrman]

Chicago can be extremely good or extremely bad (in terms of pizza)

New York is always a safe bet for decent pizza...

Is that a style? There's Neopolitan and Sicilian, but I've never heard of just "Italian" style pizza. FWIW all of the pizza I had in Italy sucked.

They are both good. I like them both, but I chose Chicago.

However, people out here (Kansas) tend to think of thin crust as Pizza Hut Thin, with the thin cracker crust, NOT the NY style.

Thin cracker crust pizza = crap.

just to be clear, pizza hut, dominos, little ceasar , <fill in chain store here>

is not pizza and should not be used to determine your choice in this poll.

Undoubtedly, NY style is better.

 

[mpitts]

Both

Your poll is missing New Haven style brick oven pizza.

You know, the BEST kind

I agree. Sicilian style is overall my favorite.

 

[HeroOfPellinor]

Missing California style.

 

[jdini76]

Add "Uncompareable".

Repost!

NY

Hmmm, I don't want to answer this without deep thought and research. Looks like I have to go out and get me some more pizza.

NY style pizza is much better here in NJ than it is in NY.

So what exactly defines NY style?

thin crust, brick oven baked, closer to traditional italian style pizza (think italian margarita pizza)

 

[ActuaryTm]

I'll take one with extra intolerance, FTW.

 

[Mo0o]

NY, I want it so thin and wide I can just use it as a delicious pizza blanket

 

[elektrolokomotive]

Isn't this like almost a monthly occurence now?

Chicago, as I've indicated previously. Can't let the NY lovers win.
