Perhaps DNC could get one for Curry.

Want. Fits in a bear locker and easy to use.

It would be awesome at, say, Onion Valley, TM or Lake Sabrina as a reward after a long day of trekking around.

I could do better than Curry Pizza Deck any day of the week by driving to Oakhurst to Pizza Factory...

Giordano's Pizza to Yosemite Village: 31 hours 2,013 miles

Admittedly there is no Giordano's in the Valley, but we have the next best thing at the Curry Pizza Deck---about a 3 minute walk from your Curry Village canvas tent.
(Side Note: Walking distance to Giordano's from Yosemite Valley is 642 hours, 1,963 miles)

Giordano's on W. Jackson Blvd makes the best pizza ever. IMHO to say that Curry Pizza Deck is the next best thing is sacrilegious and I am not even from Chicago.

If you're comparing "California Pizza Kitchen" with Curry Village, then sure, I'll pick Curry. I assumed the comparisons were restricted to edible substances.

Aren't you from Fresno? Me n Ed's is pretty decent for a chain.

Who serves the best pizza is pretty subjective in my mind, it is all about personal taste. It has also been a hot topic on this forum. My mother was sick the whole time she was pregnant with me and one thing she could eat was pizza so I must have gotten that love in vitro. Pizza is one of my favorite foods and I am always searching for good places any where I go. I have eaten a lot of pizza in a lot of places, some great and some really bad.

As for Chicago style pizza in Chicago, I prefer Giordano’s while some like Lou Malnati’s better. Actually, I like New York style pizza better than Chicago style pizza and there was a place near Time Square ( I can’t remember the name and it is gone now) that I felt was best representative of that type in any city I have had pizza. The Italian section of Pittsburgh has some great pizza and so does the Little Italy section of San Francisco. I can’t find any great pizza in Los Angeles anymore. I don’t think of the pizza at California Pizza Kitchen as being true pizza.

As for my Yosemite and Yosemite area rankings, I was ranking them against each other. Frankly, I would not consider any of them great pizza’s, good but not great. The ambiance at Curry is certainly better than the Loft. For many years we mostly ate Curry pizza. My current choosing of the Loft over Curry it not just due to the taste, since they are basically the same, but the fact that we had too many bad Curry pizzas over the past few years and only once did I get a bad pizza at the Loft. The Loft not only gave me a new one without any hesitation, they did not charge me for either pizza. I had to argue to get a new pizza at Curry. I have also found that the Loft is more generous with it’s cheese and it’s toppings. By the way, I had a conversation with a Curry manager recently about what I have been experiencing at Curry and he is looking into it. One thing I think we all can agree with is not to get the pizza at the Lodge Cafeteria. They use a cheese blend and put some sort of herb mix on the crust.

Pizza at Pizza Factory in Lone Pine is a bit "greasier" but it sure is acceptable after coming down the big hill...

Tried a small pizza at Curry last week. It was actually pretty good. Didn't eat on the pizza deck, though...instead opted for the tables near the grill, where we could drink our beer purchased from the store.
