Pizza in Chicago (Aurelio's)

I dined in at a dominos carry out facilility in Chicago a few years back. Other than being drunk and having to sit on the floor, I remember the pizza being pretty decent.
 
This thread is the very embodiment of that old saying about opinions and azzholes. :rolleyes:

One guy loves Lou Malnati's, and one guy says it's "touristy" (whatever the fk that means).
One guy makes a blanket declarative statement about an entire genre of pizza and it's relative worth.

You think a white car looks good; the other guy says white is horsesh!t, and only a black car is teh kewl. Then there's the guy with the blue car...

So tell me, pilgrim, where will you dine during your Big Weekend in Chicago? :rolleyes:

"Boy golly, this sure is a big place! Why, Grimes would fit neatly inside the River North neighborhood! Good thing I was into scouting and know how to read a compass."

I have to agree here! Piece is my go to spot because of there great beer selection as well. They brew a lot of great beers and always have great guest beers on tap as well.

If you want something in the neighborhood near Soldier, hit up Flo & Santos. Neighborhood spot with excellent thin crust and another good beer list.

I live in South Loop and was thinking of putting something together for Friday night at one of the local bars. Let me know who is interested?
 
Had me some Malnati's a few years back and had me some Gino's this past weekend - both good shiat. Grabbed me an italian beef sammie at Soldier Sat night that was pretty tasty as well. It was a gooood weekend in the Windy City.

July was grossly humid. August started out that way, but the pattern of late has been very pleasant. Wife and I even dined outside yesterday evening, it was so nice.

I don't think "The South" and "Better schools" go together ever.. unless you make a sentence like "I left the South to send my kids to better schools".
