More like Geno's East (Chicago). But, it is really like a place in Nashville on West end close to Vandy, "Obies" Pizza from back in the day. It took me a while to get it right, but I have mastered it now.
Edit: Don't eat at Obies now, it was bought by some Indian's and they have ruined it.
Unfortunately, the Gino's East by my house closed. Lou's is all we have now.
Never tried making a deep dish, though. Sounds fun.
We made sushi for the first time last weekend. Turned out amazing. Super easy, too.
Phoenix. We have a ton of Chicago transplants here, though, so we get a lot of restaurants that only exist here outside of Chicago.
First of all, I thought you were in South Carolina and secondly, I didn't know Geno's and Lou's had stores anywhere other than Chicago. If you want to try your hand at Chicago Pizza I'll be happy to share how I do it.
If you don't feel the pain of disciplined, then you'll feel the pain of regret.
South Carolina is way too humid for this guy.
They didn't until Phoenix. It took Lou's years to open their first location here. They wanted to mirror the city of Chicago's water filtration, so that the dough would taste the same. Did the same with all of the ingredients. Gino's tried to rush it after they saw Lou's success and it just wasn't the same. They lasted a couple of years before closing.
Definitely share! What are your go to toppings?
My toppings vary as to who I'm feeding. My husband likes meat, I like veggies.
Sounds like they may be authentic, we have a small Italian restaurant here that is owned by a family from New York that is Sicilian, and they make everything from scratch, dough to sauces. Best Italian food my old butt has eaten. 😎
literally learned about live aid watching the movie. I knew it was a concert for Africa but just thought it was limited to philly, not the whole world. Really good movie, well good music, movie gets a bit weird for me and I’ve been a big rami malik fan since mr Robot.
I remember Phil Collins playing at Europe’s Live Aid, hopping on the concord and then being on stage for the US gathering. Always thought that was cool.
W/O polictics, this will be the best OT thread this offeason.

Probably going to go down as the most undervalued advice today. They'll see.

Pretty sure I was in the middle of Dr. Franenstien and oh shit, it's on fire, when I posted that. BIL is on the couch asleep missing an eyebrow. Wife just left for work.
You're a Panthers fan, right? Whenever you come back to North Carolina, give Cookout a try. The chain started in Greensboro. They're littered all over the state of North Carolina, just not sure if it's branched out much further than the state lines. Great burgers and they have something like 40 different shakes on the menu.
Best fast food restaurant around me, has great burgers, fish, shrimp, andchicken, not to forget the roast beef.
Love Culver's! Okay, so Cookout is probably #1 for me, but Culver's is a close 2nd.
A bit morbid, but this quote always make me laugh.
I will have to make another trip soon. I absolutely loved Charlotte when I was there. Cleanest big city I have ever been to. It was well kept and everyone was super friendly. Even with me wearing me Kentucky blueYou're a Panthers fan, right? Whenever you come back to North Carolina, give Cookout a try. The chain started in Greensboro.

I’m sure people felt very indifferent about me being there. Kentucky fan on Saturday, Panthers fan by Sunday.I will keep Cookout in mind. I also want to try some Carolina BBQ
It's funny. Because it's true.A bit morbid, but this quote always make me laugh.
Eastern North Carolina BBQ. Don't get tricked into western NC or South Carolina BBQ.I will have to make another trip soon. I absolutely loved Charlotte when I was there. Cleanest big city I have ever been to. It was well kept and everyone was super friendly. Even with me wearing me Kentucky blue

If Anyone is ever in the southern mountains of North Carolina there is a really good BBQ spot in Cashiers. They have all 3 Carolina options, but eastern is the only real option.

There's also a really good place in Dillsboro. This is where you will get the best brisket.

My dad has retired to Wilmington. I've been wanting to check out his place. Was trying to do something this summer and compare Carolina bbq to Memphis.
Spent 6 years of my life living in Wilmington. Easily one of my favorite places on this planet.
