A trip to Little Star

Well, the wings were not deep-fried, but dinner at Little Star was nonetheless outstanding. After all, we were there for the pie. After weeks of anticipation, I waded into both the Chicago-style deep-dish and the New York-style thin: each was yummuy, with really good crust. And the wings? Although baked, they were hot and spicy, just not dripping with Durkee's and butter. I think I'll stick to Burger Meister for their wings, quite probably the best in town.
The atmosphere at Little Star was overwhelmingly cool: a mix of retro-80s pop and current hipster tunes on their jukebox, four great beers (including Racer 5 on tap a nd obligatory PBR in $1 cans), and found-object art on the walls.
