It's no secret that pizza is one of America's favorite foods. According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), 1 in 8 Americans consume pizza on any given day. That's a lot of pizza – and it helps there are a lot of different pizza styles to choose from. These different styles are often divided by the region from which they originate. Let's take a closer look at the different regional pizza styles you can try for yourself.
The first type of pizza that we're going to talk about is New York-style. Although it has New York in its name, you can find this style in restaurants all over the nation. What distinguishes New York-style pizza from the rest is its thin crust. This gives way to the popular tradition of folding them in half to take a bite. The classic way most people think about pizza is a circle, cut into triangles. New York-style follows this tradition to make the ultimate meal.
The next type on our list is actually closer in resemblance to a pie: Chicago deep-dish. This style gets its name from the fact that the crust is thick and usually served in a dish instead of a box. Lovers of deep-dish will typically opt for a fork and knife when eating instead of using their hands. Although you can find this style all over the country, it's the most popular choice in the Windy City.
Last on our list is the most different from the other options. A Detroit-style pizza differentiates itself by being made into a square instead of the classic circle pizza that we all think of. It's also notable that the sauce is added over the cheese. With the sauce on top, you may find that Detroit-style is a little messier than the rest.
With all the different styles available to you, you're sure to find a style that suits your preferences. If you're looking to order out from a pizzeria, get in contact with Falco's Pizza today to place your order. Before you do, take a look at our menu to see the options we have available.
