Wowzers! Smart, smart little place in Leslieville. The venue is quite small but the pizza experience is XXL! I am more familiar with Chicago style deep dish and was anticipating the typical round 2" deep, weighs as much as a bowling ball pizza pie but after tasting the Descendant Detroit style, rectangular shaped, tastes like Angels laughing in your mouth pie I am a convert. The square or rectangle shape comes from the original use of industrial trays found in Detroit factories to hold small parts and I must say that crispy golden squares of this divine pizza is much easier to wield than the floppy triangle sections of a traditional round one.
My sweetie is a pizza gourmand and will "prime" his stomach and palate by eating very little on the day he is to try a new place and fretted that the smaller 8x10 size wasn't likely to fill the void but was greatly surprised to find that it was the perfectest choice (don't laugh, Shakespeare used "perfectest" in several sonnets and got away with it!) and was completely satisfied.
We were with 2 other friends so got to sample 4 pies in total, each one as good as the last!
Bravo Chef Getchell!
