Standard cheese that was a proper role player. Crust had a great flavor all on its own. Great stuff and totally uncomplicated. Not many better ways to spend $2.

Had lunch at Uno's Chicago Grill. Last ate some Uno about 10-15 years ago, and it was a sloppy mess. Was not excited to go back, but it was a bidnit lunch.

I got a deep dish, and -- it was not awful. The innards (cheese, sauce, pepperoni) was very tasty. The crust was a tad generic but it had a decently crisp texture. Pretty well executed.

Two of my colleagues ordered "flat breads" which were simply oval thin crust pizzas. Not bad! The crust was much like California Pizza Kitchen, which is one of the few worthy chain pizzas.

This stuff was better than most mom-n-pop places.

Pineapple is my favorite fruit, but I don't want it anywhere near my pizza.

Pepperoni and mushrooms is my perfect pizza.

I don't like mixing fruit with things that aren't fruit, unless we're talking about dessert foods.

I listened to this podcast this morning featuring the ordering computer at Uno's. Pretty interesting.

My whole family got food poisoning from a Canadian bacon and pineapple pizza when I was young. Pretty much ruined that kind of pizza for me.

I've had Regina Pizza and Santarpio's in Boston - both superb old-school pies.

Just had Picco's (Tremont St) and not only is it the best in Boston, it's one of the best pizzas I've ever had. Flawless.

Pizzeria Vetri opens today in Rittenhouse. That place is going to print money.
