Most of us are used to the standard thin-crust American pizza or Chicago-style deep dish, but the St. Louis area also has it's own variant: Extremely thin, crispy-crust pizza that's well-baked and cut into small squares. It's addictive and even fun to eat.

If you're making a large pizza order, it's a good idea to write everything down before you make the call. This will make everything much simpler for you and the order-taker to understand, and you limit the possibility of mistakes. You'll also keep their phone tied up for a shorter time.

In most cases, takeout pizza is somewhat cheaper if you pick it up yourself instead of waiting for delivery. Not only that, you'll get the pizza much quicker (often in as little as fifteen minutes or so), and you don't have to tip anyone unless you want to.
