Unable to fathom a trip to Chicago without pizza but realistic enough to know deep dish was not a logical option for a snack with family following Fat Rice it was at the suggestion of my sister\u2019s fianc\u00e9 that we found ourselves at well-regarded West Side staple Coalfire just prior to 10pm on Black Friday for a late night pie. Decidedly dark and expectedly trendy with a straight forward menu and smiling service it was without much effort that we agreed on a simple Margherita topped with house cured Mortadella and watching each step of the process from stretching of the dough to a final drizzle of olive oil from our seats I had little doubt the results would shine, the end product supple and lightly charred with a slightly open crumb more than capable of holding up to the ample toppings with a slight fold and outperforming any New York slice I\u2019ve encountered to date, coal fired or not. Clearly a \u2018do one thing and do it well\u2019 sort of place with a focus on the pizzas while sweets are outsourced it was admittedly with caution that we placed trust in our waitress that the $4 cupcakes from locally owned \u201cChicago Cupcakes\u201d were worth the price and selected four of the six daily options but true to her word each filled and frosted choice was excellent, the cookie dough particularly impressive with top notes of vanilla and cinnamon plus dark chocolate chips adding a bitter, crunchy finish.<\/p>\n
