We had deep dish pizza in Chicago at pizzeria uno which is basically the be all and end all of deep dish pizza. It was delicious and had a kind of alluring red wine grease that gave it a luscious quality; but the pizza we had at Matthew's in Baltimore was incredible. This was some kind of genius. It is two deep dish pizzas stacked on top of each other with layered cheese, sauce and proscuitto in between. The crusts have the softness of a pennsylvania dutch cinnamon roll, with puffy air pockets, golden crispyness around the crust, and a kind of wafting yeastiness that rose my heart as much as the dough itself. The proscuitto layered in between the stacks had a floral aroma to it, and I kept hoping my friends would be distracted with conversation so I could steal off their plates. Oh, yeah, these pizzas are served on paper plates and if you want it to go, she hands you another paper plate to serve as the "top of the box"!
