same question as to which do you prefer white red or rose wine
there is no definitive answer
each day and each place is unique
enjoy it all.

ok, well if the pizza is coming from gas ovens, i actually prefer "sicilians"
if coal or wood then def round. sicilians wouldn't cook right in very high heat ovens.
speaking of sicily, i will be gone for the last 2 weeks of september for a week in sicily to baptize my godson, and then i'm off to see my family in salerno, near naples.

Though I prefer round, Ledo Pizza's is awesome even though they cut it in squares!

Sicilian crust must be prepared right in order to be good!

@gianluca. Do you know Roberto from Zero Otto Nove?

@jlewfoodie, Is there more than one Ledo's, or are you talking about the one on LaGrange Rd. in Countryside, IL?

Papa's, Ledo's, Home Run Inn--most of the non-chain pizzas around Chicago are baked round but cut square.

Square pizza is pizza? ;)

Okay, I haven't had that much Sicilian...but in my mind, square is associated with school cafeterias and pizza parties where big pizzas are cut into little squares for tiny appetites!

alberto
you're damn skippy i stole forza pizza from you, my apologies for not crediting you
my bad
off for three nights of the pizza patrol, heading into the final third of eating
a day without pizza is like a day without sunshine
and remember the first 100 years are the hardest
be and stay well

@ paulie, i knew him when i was a kid, my brother went on a wine trip with hime in the 90's...but there's no way he remembers us. i do know his brother who has caffe tino down the block. why? you know him?

@gianluca. I've met him once. I ask because he named Zero Otto Nove after the area code for his hometown of Salerno.

Ciao,
