Deep dish pizza was invented in the Windy City in 1943 by Ike Sewell, founder of Uno’s Pizzeria. It became so popular that it spun into a huge national chain and inspired dozens upon dozens of other deep dish pizzerias in major cities across the world. So tuck a napkin into your collar, grab a fork and knife (you’ll need them), and celebrate.

Uno’s is offering their deep dish deal all month long! You can get an individual deep dish pizza and a side house or caesar salad for $10 with the purchase of a a beverage. Coupon available to insider’s club members- join here.

If your children cannot stop talking about Santa Claus, you are not alone. That’s why restaurants all over town have put together some special opportunities to allow your kids to meet one of Santa’s helpers.

But here’s a tip for you. Don’t spring Santa on them. Let your child know they are going to meet a very special visitor. Ask them what they think Santa will wear and talk about how he has a big beard. Sometimes children will feel more secure of they have siblings or friends accompanying them, however you are the best gauge of your child’s needs. And be sure and have fresh batteries in the camera!
