Goodbye Windy City Pizza...

It is with great sadness I inform the blogosphere that Windy City Pizza in Tampa is no more.

For 20 years, Tampa was the beneficiary of Windy City pie. I loved it. It was good pie. Flat crust, Chicago style pie. And it was Chicago style too. I've been to Chi-town, I know the damn deal.

Flat crust, spicy and cut into squares. Fraggin' A. I'll miss you Windy City.

This now begins the great pizza search. Me and Citizen Frisky will be on the case. Any suggestions will be entertained.

I'm told that there is a pizza place in A-Dale, The Pizza Connection, that uses the same recipe as the old J Burns pie. Anyone that grew up in my era in town remembers J Burns. Windy City was a lot like J Burns.

One day I'll find it, the Pizza Connection... J Burns, Windy City... and meeeeeeee.
