Thick - Chicago style Deep Dish Pizza - SW 3rd and Stark

I know, it's been a LONG time since I posted a food cart blog... sorry..

==============
Today, I discovered a new Chicago style pizza cart... replacing the former Sabra's burger cart on SW 3rd and Stark.

I arrived slightly before official opening time, and the owner informed me it would be a few minutes, as he'd just pulled the pies out of the oven and the cheese needed to 'set.' - he tried a slice out while I waited, and the cheese, indeed, hadn't set yet... oops.

I am no expert on Chicago style pizza, but the combination of a new cart, and deep dish pizza - sounded appetizing today.
December is a ballsy time of year to open a new food cart, and several in this particular pod have closed in the last month.

In a few minutes, the cheese had set, and I was presented with a very heavy slice of Sausage deep-dish. $5 per slice. Today's offerings were Sausage, or Cheese. Perhaps with time there will be more options.

While waiting, a friend of the owner came up, and I learned he'd been one of the testing subjects while ramping up for opening. I'll take it as a good sign that he came up to try it out on opening day.

I hurried back to my cubicle, and, with the provided (and necessary) knife and fork, began to dig in... thick crust, topped by a very thick layer of cheese, then topped with chunks of sausage and sauce. No doubt, quite tasty.
[ ..and, look, a smiley face on the inside... :) ]

I could have gone for a bit more sauce on top, but overall (and being the first day) - this was impressive, and filling. I'll be back...
