World's Best Pizza Maker is in Chicago

The Italians created pizza, but can you believe that they had never heard of deep dish? That's until Leo Spizzirri made some noise amongst the best pizza makers in the world. Leo, the Executive Chef for Giordano's 46 locations, is now a member of the United States Pizza Team. He is considered to be one of the best pizza makers in the world, and his specialty is deep dish.

Leo has been trained by 9 time pizza champion, Tony Gemignani, and is also certified in Classic Italian Pizza, Pizza in Pala, and Pizza in Taglia from the Scuola Italiana Pizzaioli in Carole, Italy. Gemigiani tagged Leo to be a part of the U.S. team after many conversations about deep dish and tasting the Chicago style pizza. Chicago style deep dish wasn't recognized in any of the World Championship competitions, but Gemigiani wanted to change that. When the Italians refused to acknowledge the deep dish pizza the USA threatened to boycott the games. After much controversy, Chicago style pizza was added. Now the pizza is the biggest story at the games.
