George's Deep Dish

At this small Edgewater spot, the deep dish pizzas are unlike any other in town. Owner George Bumbaris uses a sourdough starter and recipe that’s based on lagana—a Greek flatbread similar to focaccia. The bottom of each pie is also dusted with cornmeal while the edges of the crust are caramelized. And instead of putting the toppings under the sweet red sauce, Bumbaris layers them over it. The menu pays tribute to famous Georges throughout history with fun creations like Weasley’s Spicy Red Top (Italian sausage, fire roasted red peppers, spicy cherry peppers, ricotta) and  Michael’s S&M (spaghetti, meatballs, ricotta, roasted garlic).
