text: Why order a sanwich a side of fries and cole slaw when everything can come in one on the cheapnnI was in town for a conference at William Penn and made a point to check out Primanti after learning about their sandwiches from Samantha L Conveniently located nearby the conference hotel on the other side of Macys the place is right off a small tunnel and somewhat easy to miss The decor was interestingly rugged hole in the wall and reminds me of a nononsense working class diner with a few small wobbly tables napkin dispensers and conventional condiments dispersed throughoutnnIt was already pm and my good friend from Texas and I were starving all day so our expectation was fairly high My order of knockwurst sandwhich came with two thick slices of soft white bread with sliced knockwurst cheese cole slaw special sauce and a huge load of french fries tightly stacked in between At first it looked like a tall order to finish it but the delicious spongy white bread made it easy I am a big sausage fan but would have preferred something other than their knockwurst Otherwise the blend of melted cheese on squareshaped hearty fries and slightly tart and the not too saucy pickled slaw made it a sinful and yet delightful experience nnAlbeit the interesting concept it was nonetheless a heart clogging meal so thank goodness that I do not have access to this type of sandwiches all the time It is still a must try however for any first time visitors to Pittsburgh Service was brief and straight forward and my food was served on a paper plate Thanks Samantha for the wonderful recommendation stars for the worthwhile experience I hope to be back
