20 Restaurants Worth the Drive From Chicago | Eater Chicago

"St. Joseph, Michigan is a ways away from the South Side but tavern-style pizza has found a home there nonetheless. Housed inside a 100-year-old train depot, Silver Beach Pizza delivers crisp and airy thin crust slices to beach-goers and just about anyone who appreciates a good pie. Best-selling combinations include The Carousel (pepperoni, sausage, ham, bell peppers, mushrooms) and the Garlic Greek (pepperoni, garlic, crushed red pepper). It’s a popular destination with locals so to avoid a long wait, make a reservation for the adults-only upper deck section. Don’t have a means of transportation? No worries. The restaurant is located right next to an Amtrak station." - Jeffy Mai
