Dinner Bell - Sweet Home Chicago

Time for another restaurant review:

Sweet Home Chicago
3501 Sycamore School Road
Fort Worth, TX 76134

Like a sign in front of a church, warning those that enter to be respectful, the sign on the front door of Sweet Home Chicago reads, "there are no heat lamps or microwaves in our kitchens." Don't let the strip mall location fool you. While the atmosphere is definitely casual, this is anything but "fast" food. They take their food seriously at Sweet Home Chicago. And that is a good thing.

The food in this kitchen is prepared from scratch, when you order it. On a recent visit, Mrs. Smith and I started our meal with, "Samosa". Think of it as sort of an Indian egg roll, only spicier. The appetizer was served piping hot along with some chutney sauce. It was incredibly delicious and served to tide us over while we awaited the main course.

We ordered personal pizzas, one with thin crust, one thick crust. The thin crust pizza was delicious, with each of the fresh ingredients adding its own flavor to the experience. The dough of the thick crust pizza is almost more of a serving bowl it is so weighed down with rich sauce and toppings.

Having never been to Chicago, I can't attest to the authenticity of the food. But having savored it, I can attest to the deliciousness of it.
