If you ever make it to the Chicago area, I've heard very good things about the pizza at

http://www.rosesbakery.com/

I haven't had it, but the recommendations come from people I trust. It's quite expensive, though. And, as far as I know, they won't share their recipes.

I have had some of Rose's bread, and while also absurdly expensive, it's come the closest of the things I've tried to tasting like "real" bread. (Their cookies are pretty good, too.)

My impression is that if you want good pizza or bread, your best bet is to make if from scratch, following recipes such as those in "The Gluten Free Gourmet", "The Gluten Free Gourmet Bakes" (or a similar title; my copy's currently loaned out), and the like. And the gluten free doughs tend to be best when freshly baked; they may not hold up as well over time.

As for me, that's all too much effort, right now. So while I have the books, I've just ended up eating rice and other things that are more convenient for me. (So, I hear things, but my first hand experience is limited.)
