Nothing feeds the soul (and the stomach) better on a freezing cold Chicago day than deep dish Chicago Pizza AND nobody does it better than Gino’s East. So on a recent frigid Chicago afternoon we headed over to Gino’s East @ 2801 N. Lincoln (on the border of Lakeview and Lincoln Park) – did we mention they have free parking – for the ultimate comfort food – Chicago Deep Dish Pizza!
We all know deep dish takes a while to make so we ordered immediately (a large w/ sausage, green peepers, onions and mushrooms) and tried some appetizers. We were pleasantly surprised at how the flavorful BBQ wings fell of the bone – DELICIOUS! We also liked the cheesy garlic bread sticks.
The star arrived piping hot in 40 minutes and it was well worth the wait! First up the crust – cornbread flavored – crunch and perfect! We loved the spicy crumbled Italian Sausage distributed perfectly throughout the pie! Layers of gooey cheese and fresh vegetables completed the perfect pizza!
