Pizzeria Via Stato

Happy Birthday Mom! Yes, the celebration continued. Took the Monday off after Thanksgiving to take her to the city and visit Chicago's ChristKindle Market in Daley Plaza. It was a chilly day, but what more to spend it with her and a mug of spiced wine. Started the day with lunch at Pizzeria Via Stato. We had small plates of their mixed greens salad with walnuts, dried cherries, parmesan dressed with a walnut vinaigrette; veal meatballs with provolone in a tomato sauce, fonduta of spinach, pecorino and crostini; and a white pizza with cracked black pepper bacon, caramelized onions and an egg. I love a farm fresh egg on pizza! We really enjoyed the food here, tasty and filling for a chilly afternoon. I'd like to come back here to try their other pizzas.
