Like, Hype, and Share this video, please! Thank you so much<br><br>I can’t begin to tell you how special this project is to me. Not only is this my first mini-documentary that isn’t about a restaurant cooking with live fire, but pizza is actually my favorite food.<br>Earlier this year, Robert reached out and invited me to visit his restaurant to film, and I knew I had to make this video happen. I was first introduced to Rob through Alvin Zhou Films' incredible video on Milly’s, and it inspired me to put my own spin on telling Robert’s amazing story.<br><br>Even though this one isn’t BBQ, I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it.<br><br>I’d love to hear your thoughts! Would you be interested in seeing me occasionally feature other great food stories on this channel during the BBQ offseason, or would you rather keep things strictly BBQ?<br><br>Thanks for watching and for continuing to support my work. It truly means a lot.

The caramelised cheese on the edges is the best bit no matter if you are eating pizza, lasagna or macaroni & cheese.

I love a dude who makes good food and has a great taste in background music. As soon as I heard the sonic adv. 2 track I popped up in my chair.

I visited Chicago last year for the first time for a work event. I stayed in the loop, but made sure to take the train up to Milly's. It was definitely worth the visit. So good.

Thank you SO much. Im a huge fan of Robert, not from his Pizza shops, but from a few youtube videos like this. His willingness to share aspects of his process is unmatched in the Chicago pizza landscape. His education has elevated my home pizza making to huge new levels. I very much hope to meet him someday, try his pizza, and thank him in person!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I watched a video on Milly's last year and have been searching for a reason to visit Chicago to try it. We finally took a day trip down a few weeks ago and made a point to preorder a pizza first thing in the morning for dinner. It was phenomenal. I enjoy a good Chicago style pizza. This is different. It's like a cross between Detroit and Chicago. When I saw this video pop up all I could think about was how good the pizza was the entire time I was watching it.
