DAY 21: OCTOBER 21st, 2020

LOCATION: Chicago Guys Pizza Co. (6640 N Durango Dr, Las Vegas, NV 89149)

GUEST(S): Robin Rothman, Lily Rothman, Paul Rothman

ORDER: 10 pieces of a 16" party cut thin cheese pizza with sausage, 1.5 slices of deep dish cheese

REVIEW:
Chicago deep and thin. Although their menu offers more, the name Chicago Guys Pizza Company says it all. This Las Vegas area carry out and delivery outpost bakes up authentic Chicago style pizza in every shape and size from the fried dough deep-dish to the crispy thin crust. Consistent with the trademark deep-dish style, expect a massive amount of cheese, sauce, and bread. Regardless of your personal opinions on the style, deep-dish makes for some impressive melted mozzarella cheese-pulls. Chicago Guys' organic tomato sauce, my favorite component, elevates each bite. The thin crust is "party cut" into squared off sectors instead of slices so you can share with more people. Over order on the thin crust and under order on the deep dish. All pizzas include a generous amount of flavorful tomato sauce and Wisconsin mozzarella cheese. Since I associate Chicago with sausage, I recommend adding sausage as a topping. Through the power of pizza, Chicago Guys Pizza Company virtually transports every patron half-way across the country.

1. Since Chicago Guys Pizza Co, is a take-out and delivery pizzeria, found an outside dining area in the parking lot. Robin, Lily, Paul and I had a picnic on the hood of my in-laws' car.
