Too bad Lou Malnati's doesn't open a location in TV...the line would be out the door.
Pizzeria Due, mentioned by Chi-Town, is also great, but I don't get into the city as often as I should, and Due does not have any locations in the NW suburbs that I know of  .
Pizzeria Uno, also started in Chicago, does have some locations in Florida, in the Orlando area -- Winter Garden, Orlando, and Kissimmee, and on the Atlantic side of Florida, in Melbourne.
Just food for thought.  |
If they were around in Schaumburg in 1994 I might have had some of their pizza. I was taking care of my uncle Bill before he went into a nursing home from late August through late November of 1994. Went home after taking an excursion to interview for a reference librarian position at the primarily African-American law school North Carolina Central University in early December of 1994.
Bill lost a leg, arm, and part of his skull to a tank burst from a German tank at the landing at Anzio, Italy. He became kind of a small town hero in Itasca. My uncle Alvin was the Fire Chief of Itasca for a while, etc.
I had to do nursing type chores for Bill while there but we went to the Schaumburg Mall a few times and ordered take out as well every once in a while.
