Saturday Chicago Pizza History and Tastings Bus Tour

Overview

Created by 13-time James Beard Award-winning food journalist Steve Dolinsky, this series of tours is based on his book, "Pizza City, USA" and features four different styles of pizza. Learn about Chicago's 10 pizza styles, and discover why there's more to The Windy City than just deep-dish. Learn how pizzas are made, talk to some owners and taste the differences. Expert doughcents will share the history of Chicago pizza as well other interesting tidbits about the neighborhood you're exploring.

You'll try deep-dish, artisan, Chicago's most popular - tavern-style - and finally, a Detroit-style slice. We return to Labriola no later than 2:30pm. PLEASE LET US KNOW AT TIME OF BOOKING IF YOU EAT PORK OR PREFER VEGETARIAN.

Keith our guide was great: very personable; knowledgeable & interesting. The 4 pizza places were quaint. I did ask for vegetarian but didn’t get until I had to remind guide but pizzas were tasty.

Kevin our guide was a wealth of information about anything pizza. He knew the histories of the various types of pizzas. He knew everything. He was super considerate with my mom who is elderly and physically challenged.

Steve was very informative and a fun tour guide. Getting to meet the business owners and hear their stories and passion for pizza was an extra special treat. Learning interesting facts about Chicago on the bus ride was great as well. All four pizzas were delicious and different styles. Highly recommend this tour!
