I’m from the UK, and I’m looking to go over to Pittsburgh later this year (I’m a Steelers fan). This was brilliant and made me look forward to it

@jjboyd01 2 месяца назад

don't listen to them. I would not want to drive all over P-burgh for a Pierogi, a steak dinner yes. When you go, we used to park near he bars, restaurant at Union Station then take the clipper ferry to the ball-game,,,do a night game.

@gaylekillian3899 3 года назад

Welcome to The Burgh! Two places that you must try are Pamela’s Diner for breakfast and Mineos Pizza. You will love them both.

Lived in Pittsburgh for over 50 years. Started going to Nicholas Tea and Coffee back in the 1970's. I love Pittsburgh. I worked in a major hotel downtown and I even drive a cab at night in downtown Pittsburgh. This was all through the 1970's. So, I was there during it's best and wildest years. Hahaha

Hahaha Heinz Baked Bean Pizza; I definitely remember them! They showed up in the UK around 25 years ago & weren't around for long.....consigned to the books of history where they belong IMO!!!

@chiltburgergaming2572 14 дней назад

Fun fact, mancinis bread is what you had at Primanti’s. So you did in fact, have other bread products from them.

Oh, man... That almond cake was amazing!

@NadoriKaija 2 года назад

my mom used to get the burnt almond torte from the closed location. ALL the time. She used to go to Mancini's quite a bit too. I've come to favor Emporio, especially in July with their bacon meatball. Put those suckers on poutine........omg yum! DeLuca's Diner in the strip has some amazing breakfast options with HUGE portions. I can't wait to go back just for the food. And a little north of the city is Sushi Bomb....all you can eat sushi off the menu, cooked to order, for one price. All kinds of juice and sake are available and the quality is amazing. Very yummy.

@TheMagicGeekdom 2 года назад

That sushi sounds amazing!

@davidorme1993 Год назад

Beto's pizza on 51. And don't dare ask them to melt the cheese. That's just how it is.

@loisperillo6672 3 года назад

Welcome to Pittsburgh!! I live just north in Avalon, about a 10 min drive up 279 or down Rt 65! You need to do breakfast at Pamela's and get some biscotti from Enrico's, both in the strip! Grandpa's candy store has all kinds of old candy and Penzeys has wonderful spices to take home with you!! Have fun and I hope you enjoy Pittsburgh as much as we (Pittsburgh and near Pittsburgh) residents do!

@TheMagicGeekdom 3 года назад

Pamela's is great!

Mancini's is the best bread ever:) I pick up a twist loaf every visit back.

@zachperkins688 2 года назад

Nice video! I grew up an hour away from Pittsburgh and it blew my mind when I realized most of the country doesn't have pepperoni rolls! I never knew they were regional to West Virginia/Pittsburgh originally. And the reason they usually aren't heated up at most places it because people will buy a bunch and take them to work or on road trips and stuff instead of bringing sandwiches.

@TheMagicGeekdom 2 года назад

Oh neat! We had a great time in Pittsburgh. Some of the best food around!

@kayd731 Год назад

I'm from Eastern Ohio and you see pepperoni rolls but its nothing like Pitt

@TheMagicGeekdom 2 года назад

That sounds wonderful. Thank you for the suggestion!

Yearly visitor to Pgh since 06. Primanti's, German food at Penn Brew (prefer their pilsner to Ahrn City), pierogis at Starlite in Blawnox, Pamela's, Bits & Bites tour in the strip, Mineo's pizza Sq Hill

@bestofflorida7650 3 месяца назад

Doritos in South Park for the hands down best fish sandwich.

@TheMagicGeekdom 2 года назад

Their food looks good!

@theowensshow33 2 года назад

this is great. I'm going to Pennsylvania in September. I'll be between Pittsburgh and monroeville/penn hills. first time ever!

@hizzydollars 2 года назад

Pittsburgh is a really small "big" city. You can get to all the places on this video rather quickly from Monroeville. I would also recommend... Mineos Pizza (Squirrel Hill) Triangle Hoagie (Swissvale) Kelly O's (Strip District) Rodos (White Oak) Ritter's Diner (Bloomfield) ..and I dont reccomend the Pittsburgher at Primantis...but rather go with Cap'n Cheese with egg!! Way better sandwich!

@TheMagicGeekdom 2 года назад

Thanks for the recommendations!

@TheMagicGeekdom 2 года назад

It's a really cool city. Monroeville has some interesting stuff too! Hope you enjoy it!

@nugguht Год назад

@@hizzydollars ok but what about jim’s hot dogs in west mifflin

@highdef8152 2 года назад

The key to the primanti sandwiches is the mancini bread they use on it. I've had other Pittsburgh style sandwiches in various places but that Mancinis bread is the thing that sets it off. Mancinis is Egg bread.

@TheMagicGeekdom 2 года назад

Oh good to know. Thanks!

@wmonger Год назад

Primanti uses bread from Cibrone & Sons.

@rapp.p4724 2 года назад

Two other places to check out are Gaucho downtown and Salem's Market & Grill in the strip.

The pepperoni roll is up for debate so many places make them and many are just as good as the other.

Just information, but you can buy a Black & Decker coffee maker for less than $25.00. Then purchase any drip coffee in the world. You can also purchase any high end cappuccino maker and it would still be much less than $7.00 per cup.

There are a few places you could have gone. Mile and Tony’s Gyro is the best gyro in PA. Pamela’s Diner has the most amazing breakfast. It’s lyonnaise potatoes are the best ever. As for Pizza I would say Bishop’s or Campiti’s. Both the best.

A Pittsburgher has nothing to do with a Philly Cheesesteak. I don’t know where you got such a thought. They are two wholly different yet delicious Quaker State options. True pepperoni rolls originate from County Club Bakery in Fairmont West Virginia. As a Pennsylvanian with a wife from WV my soul hurt.

You Also Should Of Showed Perogies Plus Stuffed Cabbage Aswell .. Pittsburgh's Changed Alot But It's Always Been Known For Being A Melting Pot Of Heritages .. Their Foods & Festivals .. Just Based On That .. Should Give You A Huge Variety Of Ideas For More Videos In The Future .. Just Make Sure You Give Plenty Of Information So When Viewers Watch Around The Country They Know Where To Go If They Visit 😊
