5.0 out of 5 stars As a Chicagoan, I can attest to this book!, Jan 24 2004

By	Jeffrey N. Rothbart "No floor show, just a go... (chicago, il United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this book years ago and can attest to its authentic roots and, most of all, authentic TASTE to Chicago's best deep dish pizzerias! If you really want to duplicate these Chicago pizzerias, this book does it easily--i'm an accomplished cook, baker and cookbook collector and you will not be disappointed. TRUST ME.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's good to be back, May 5 2003

By A Customer

As former Chicagoans who have been forced east into a pizza wasteland, we found exactly what we were looking for in this book! Yesterday we sat down to the first genuinely delicious pizza we have had in the last two years. The dough was delicious and the sauce was perfect. We can't wait to make more.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not Restaurant Recipes, Dec 20 2002

By A Customer

If you try these recipes, you will not duplicate pizzas cooked at Uno's, Gino's, Giordano's, etc. You will make a decent pizza (and I've had to experiment quite a bit to improve on Bruno's recipes), but don't be fooled into thinking that these are the real thing. And the basic deep dish recipe is just the same as the one you can get free at many sites on the internet. A better book is Evelyn Slomon's, but hers suffers, too.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not Perfect Pizza, but Very Good!
First of all, NO, these are not the secret recipes of Giordano's, Gino's, Pizzeria Uno, or the others.

They are, however, very good pizza recipes. Read more
