Chicago's 12 Best New Restaurants Of 2022 - Chicago - The Infatuation

"We're not beholden to the antiquated idea that a restaurant needs to have chairs, a door, or its own separate address to be on this guide. Which explains the presence of Professor Pizza, which has a now-familiar origin story: It began as a home kitchen pop-up and is now operating out of a takeout-only ghost kitchen in Humboldt Park. Professor Pizza makes several varieties of pizza (including Detroit and Sicilian) but their tavern and NY-style pies are the reason we made burner Instagram handles to troll Infatuation NYC. It has a flavorful crust, with a puffy edge and a beautifully charred undercarriage. Equally good is the tavern-style’s cracker crust that’s thin enough to have a snap, but can still hold up to the toppings. The only drawback is that pies can sell out, so order a few days ahead of time, and then send @infatuationnyc team a message about how great it was." - adrian kane, john ringor
