In the 20 plus years I lived in Chicago I tried to be a good local and
eat the deep-dish. Most places, it's a wad of soggy bread. As in any
other town, I've had good and bad thin.

Mostly, if I had to eat that kind of food, I'd go for a dog, italian
beef, gyros or maybe a great ChopPac burger platter at Chopper's in
Wicker Park. Or, preferably, go to a neighborhood for real food.
Ribs? I think that's just for tourists. Like Uno and Duo.
