Which do you prefer? For those unfamiliar with those terms, New York style is thin crust so you can fold it and Chicago style is deep dish, sometimes so deep you need a fork!
Personally I am a New York style kind of girl. I grew up near Philly and that was the predominant pizza style found there.

Sorry to say that I can not know if pizza is better with New York style or Chicago style. Pizza has to be in Italian style, the original, the best, the only one. I remember the pizza in US (specially in NY) and I think is not bad at all but again I have to say: Italian style, please

I love Chicago style pizza. I have been to Chicago several times and I always make sure that I can get some. I don't think that I have ever had New York style pizza.

I had been to both places and tasted Pizza at Pizza hut. I ordered for vegetarian pizza with tomatoes, capcisum and mushroom toppings and I did not find any difference. Probably If I ordered for different variety, then I would have known. During my 1 month stay at States, I never left the opportunity to have pizzas

I years ago I would have said that pizza is pizza and that there is no difference. After visiting family in New York, I have to say the big foldable New York style pizza is much better.

I can't pick only one because I love both style and both
has a unique and great thing that we all can enjoy;)
I was living in Ohio before and liked deep dish Chicago style
pizza and now I have been living in NY for over 3 years and
love NY style as well.
I love pizza in general..:)

I love them both. I love pizza in all its forms! But I am slightly partial to Chicago style, because I love the thick crust. I'll use the crust edge like a breadstick sometimes, once I've eaten the rest of the piece of pizza. I dip it in sauce. :D Plus, the thick crusts can be filled with cheese!

i love pizza it's probably one of my favorite foods. there's something about eating a chicago deep dish sold at the navy pier that makes it amazing. but the folding of the new york style pizza with it's big slices just makes me go crazve it right at the moment. but i love them both.
