Evil gourmet delight hiding a cheese waterfall: Chicago’s "Deep Dish Pizza" now available in Taipei

If pizza is considered an indulgent treat, then the Chicago-originated “deep dish pizza” is downright evil to the core—its thickness is two to three times that of a regular pizza, loaded with excessive meat, vegetables, and cheese. Lifting a slice reveals a cheesy waterfall as grand as Niagara. Now, there's no need to stare at online images and fantasize—you can try it in Taipei’s East District.

Our ‘Classic Chicago Deep Dish Pizza’ is topped with sausages, handmade beef meatballs, and a mix of vegetables,” Jenny explained.
