RE: Pizza Night in Addison, TX at Taste of Chicago
"Never met a pizza, I didn't like..." -W.C.Fieldds
That looks really good, and I'm pretty sure the deep dish will fill you up even more. I grew up in the midwest, so the deep dish was pretty popular. That Chicago influence, I suppose. But it's ALL so tasty.
To me, there is never enough pizza. I guess my favorite is the one I make. Think we talked about it last time (but I never answered your ??, if I remember correctly...). It's homemade, with Kalamata olives, mushrooms, artichokes, and red sauce. No cheese, which is the odd part. But a vegan friend of mine came up with that, and since I try not to eat too much fat, I just left it off. And actually, the flavours come out stronger. Though I LOVE cheese, and Feta is really good on this one. Think I could eat about 27 pounds without too much trouble. Then add some of that La Croix coconut soda, with a bit of coconut or vanilla Tourani (sp?)syrup on ice, and a movie? Look out everybody! The small joys of life.
You grew up in the Midwest? I didn't know that. For some erroneous reason I thought you had always been from where you are now. I found a 'famous' Chicago pizza restaurant this weekend, it's coming soon to a Pizza Night near you.
The DD special with feta sounds really delicious, especially with the accoutrements you named. Food is such a fun canvas. May I ask why you prefer to eat low-fat? Just out of curiosity :^)
Howdy. Nice to hear from you. No, I'm a midwesterner from times past. But now consider myself a Northwesterner. Been here longer than anyplace else in my life. Plus, I didn't fit in as well back there, so this is a good fit.
I look forward to your look in at the Chicago Pizzaria. Love that stuff, as we've established already ( :
I try to watch my fat intake to attempt to keep healthy. High cholesterol runs in my family. So it's to try to keep that at a useful level. Though I still eat too much sugar. THAT one is a doozy to deal with. (Cookies now and then, mainly. Not in BATCHES, but still, try to watch my boyish figure.)
"I wasn't born in the Pacific Northwest, but I got here as fast as I could".
Lol, Your boyish figure. You ain't lyin about the sugar, its effects are very powerful. And it's in almost everything twad, of course. From the looks of your food posts, you do well with incorporating mindful ingredients, and in a fun, whimsical way. Thanks for the chat, it's always refreshing, Herr Schteinn!
