Numero Uno is a chain in California that serves deep
dish something-pizza-like. It's crust is very sweet
and does not have much corn in the flour mix so it is
not the same as Chicago deep dish dough. Numero Uno
is indeed fake, but I recall it being delicious.

Having since discovered that wheat intolerance was
the cause of my endless indigestion by the time I
moved to Chicago metro I have not tried Pizzeria Uno.
I have a local chain that offers a "no dough" version.
The locals are not impressed with Pizzeria Uno based
on my observations of who has good taste in foods.
But large families go there often so they must have a
good price performance ratio.
