Global Pizza chain Pizza Hut says the true pizza of Chicago is tavern-style -- not deep dish.
The chain recently announced the pizza on its website, describing the new Chicago pie with a"crispy thin crust" and"square-cut for snacking and sharing." Days before the announcement, the chain teased the new pizza on social media, with an age-old crust debate."Deep dish is not the true pizza of Chicago," the post shows in a photo, with a phone number listed for the crust curious to call.
When NBC Chicago called the number, it lead to a 30-second recorded message."It's time you all knew the truth," the voice said in part, in a thick Chicago accent."That deep dish is not the true Chicago-style pizza.""Deep dish is what we give to tourists," one comment read."Thin cut into squares thats where its at.
According to Pizza Hut, the tavern-style pizza is available at participating locations for a limited time. Feeling out of the loop? We'll catch you up on the Chicago news you need to know. Sign up for the weekly
