Super Hungry Destination: Pittsburgh, Primanti Bros

I spent a few days in Pittsburgh in June for work.  On the last day in Pitt, I hit a hot spot, known in Pittsburgh as Primanti Bros.  I got a "sandwich" made of roast beef and cheese...and fries...and cole slaw...and onions...and peppers...and tomatoes...all for less than $7.  This place don't joke.  It was the perfect sized sandwich for the Beninator and about three meals for me.  I knew this was possibly the last time I would ever eat here (I love to travel to new places, not old ones).  So I made the most of it and ate at least half.  Also, what I am trying to say here, do not order a side.  You are stupid to do that.

The sandwich was fantisimo!  The texture of the fries, the vinegar dressing on the slaw, the melty cheese, the almost there of some roast beef...magical.  I vaguely remember regretting asking for the 50 cent extra grilled peppers and onions when I saw the size of the sandwich, but I would do it again!  The burst of flavors was heaven in my mouth.  Primanti Bros has five generous locations, so you have no excuse not to make a trip when in Pittsburgh!


That's just half!  And three times the size of my mouth!

Happy faces in apprectiation of satisfied bellies!
