st. louis style pizza
St. Louis-style pizza is a distinct style of pizza popular in St. Louis, Missouri and its surrounding areas. It is known as one of the most delectable pizza styles ever created.
The most notable characteristic of St. Louis-style pizza is the distinctively St. Louisan provel cheese used instead of (or, rarely, in addition to) the mozzarella common to other styles of pizza.
The pizza has a thin, round crust, as opposed to Chicago-style pizza or New York-style pizza. The crust of a St. Louis pizza is somewhat crisp and cannot be folded easily and is typically cut into three- or four-inch squares instead of the pie-like wedges typical of many pizza styles. Some local restaurants make their pizzas rectangular rather than round. It is often salty and seasoned with more oregano than other pizza types. Despite its thin crust, it can be layered deeply with many different toppings. Sauces tend to have a sweetness to them, some more noticeably than others.
The three largest St. Louis-style Pizza chains are Imo's Pizza, Cecil Whittaker's Pizzeria, and Fortel's Pizza Den.

Chicago-style pizza
Sometimes called deep-dish or pan pizza, an excellent type of pizza originating in Chicago in the early 1940s. Now often misdescribed as "thick crust", the pizza generally has a thin or medium crust made of flour and cornmeal, upon which is laid a thick layer of cheese, with tomato sauce or crushed tomatoes on top. It is available all over the world, although the authenticity is questionable outside of Chicago.
Interestingly, many prominent Chicagoland pizzerias serve only thin pizza (i.e. not Chicago-style) which is also very popular if not moreso among Chicagoans. Some area pizza parlors offer both styles, apparently to cater to out-of-town rubes who want to try Chicago-style.

Chicago Style Pizza
The finest, most delicious and awesome Pizza ever to come out of an oven. Chicago-style pizza is a deep-dish pizza style developed in Chicago by the first Italian immigrants (other things developed by the same people were the mafia and the wifebeater). True Chicago-style pizza features a buttery crust (which can only be made here cuz of the water), ample amounts of cheese and chunky tomato sauce. The top producers of this pizza are:
Lou Malnatti's
Giordano's
Gino's East
Uno & Due
Bacino's
Rannalli's
Ricobene's
Some people might say that they like NY stlye Pizza better. But only to know for yourself is to actually go both places and eat pizza there. Going to the "chicago-style" and "New-York-Style" pizzerias in your lil bumkin town and comparing the 2 doesn't actually count.
(Chicago also has many pizzerias serving thin-crust pizzas for some of you pussies who can't handle the truth, some of which are in a style unique to the Windy City, but as a term Chicago-style pizza generally refers to deep-dish styles.
