    With that much filling, doesn’t the base get soggy? Can you leat a slice like a normal pizza? Ie: held by the crust

      No the base doesn’t get soggy. Yes you could probably pick it up but it is definitely fork food. How good you think it is might be directly tied to how much you like cheese.

      Locals say they don’t eat it but I have my doubts. There’s just so many places to get it. I hope this makes one of them mad enough to run the numbers on tourism vs deep dish establishments because I’m curious but not curious enough to hyperfixate.

      No, it’s cheese on the bottom then meat then more cheese then sauce. It held up pretty good but not nearly as well as a normal slice of pizza. Think more like a sturdy pie crust in how strong it is.
