In "Forks" when Richie makes the deep-dish pizza run... does anyone else think the final plating looked like shit? The cheese wasn't even melty at that stage. It just looked sad.

But definitely a cool gesture.

That perfectly describes overthought fine dining for me

Exactly.

And that's why I've been very careful to say Chicago Deep Dish in this conversation and not Chicago style pizza.

that's how pizza got its start here in chigago -- it would be served in taverns (like pretzels are now) to salt the customers up.

usually you don't put the whole fish on -- it's just portions of the fillets added for umami. i actually make my pizza sauce with three processed anchovy fillets.
