Oh dear god. You lost me at Pizza Hut and Dominos. Do me a favor and take whatever corn syrup beverage bottle they brought with your last order, fill it with gasoline, stuff a rag in the top and go firebomb whichever outlet you bought from. Those two places shouldn't be allowed to call what they serve "pizza".

There are some chains I like - Giordano's, Lou Malnati's, for instance - but I tend to go for the neighborhood places because they're a whole lot better. I live a 10 minute walk away from what's supposed to be the "Best Pizza in America" (Great Lakes Pizza Co - at least according to GQ), and it's next door to my favorite neighborhood French restaurant (La Tache). It's Great Lakes Pizza, and it's not even the best pizza in the neighborhood (it is on that block, though).

But what do I get on mine? Depends, really. There's a really good margarheta pizza that I like at one place, and a really good goat cheese and tomato one at another. My wife is picky about sausage (which I love), so there's yet another place that we get sausage and mushrooms from when we're both in the mood. Great Lakes has a damn good pepperoni that they use on their pizza, and when I'm ready to invest the time it takes to get one from them, that's where I like to go.
