WBEZ putting the work in so we don't have to.

As an east coast boy, slice joints are a way of life. I'm excited to try some of these spots out over the Summer (probably via bike because driving in this city is a nightmare. Could be a good group ride idea!?)

Glad to see one of my favorite spots right now getting some much deserved attention: Pizza Friendly Pizza in the UK next to The Empty Bottle. I love a good Sicilian slice.

Im a new york native coming in from the all feed because I like pizza and I was curious to check out your slice culture. Whats up with half the list being NY style? I would expect a list with so much out of town pizza to be more controversial.

Chicago style pizzas arent cut out for a to go slice. Im surprised someone is even doing a deep dish slice to go, sounds like a mess. And as a Jersey kid the crackery thin crust style they got out here just isnt worth the trouble, and they don’t reheat very well.

Im actually not surprised NY style slices dominate this list, they just do it better and are more forgiving to a reheat.
