Best Pizza to Eat?

I'm not really much of a fan of the chain places at all, but I suppose the most tolerable of them is Pizza Hut. If only because I've had more exposure to PH than anywhere else.

However, as non-chain pizza goes, you cannot beat Chicago Motherfucking Pizza and Oven Grinder Company, located at 2121 N. Clark St. in Lincoln Park. Not so much a traditional pizza as a pizza-derived creation, they have what they call their pizza pot pie which will (mark my words) eventually conquer the world and convert all to cheesy goodness. For those of you who are familiar with Panera Bread's (and other places I'm sure) soup in a bread bowl, think "pizza in a crust bowl." They bake the crust into roughly the shape of a large mushroom and it contains the cheese and sauce. Your choice of veggie sauce or meat sauce, and white or wheat bread for the crust. Plus the most awesome goddamn mushrooms you ever tasted.

On top of that, their appetizer, the Mediterranean Bread, once ended a fight with Chuck Norris in a stalemate. (insert "stale"mate/stale bread jokes here. Done yet? Good.) Huge plate of flatbread with kick-ass seasoning.

However, if you want a traditional pizza pie, there's Joe's Pizzeria, one of the "hole in the wall" places we're so fond of, in the little town of bumblefuck Wheeling, IL. Ordered from them for 17 years and never once had a bad pizza. They don't do deep dish, but if you're like me and enjoy thin crust (I know, sacrilege for a Chicagoan), their thin crust pizzas pretty much own.
