In the fan-favorite "Forks" episode, a tasting menu chef fancily re-plates a Pequod's pizza for diners who want to try deep dish. The show, which airs on Hulu, brought in an army of crew members to shoot a short scene where the pizza is picked up at the restaurant. Pequod's pies are widely regarded as one of Chicago's best versions of deep dish, routinely being featured in news articles and listicles from food blogs. Since 1970, their signature, caramelized cheese edge has helped them stand out from other spots making deep dish, pan or stuffed pizzas.
