output: This laundromat absolutely blew my mind the first time I stepped into it. Yeah, I'm kind of lame but still! They keep the laundromat incredibly clean, notably their front loading washers. Front loaders tend to adopt a mildewy, moldy odor if the gasket is not cleaned properly. This isn't a huge problem at home but in a public laundromat it can really be a disaster. I can name a few places that have had this disgusting odor and did not appear to care. The Laundry Factory does not have this. They also have two mini lounges with full cable TV. It's a nice reprieve to be able to sit down in a comfy chair and watch some TV while your clothes are washing or drying. They don't just stop at cable, however. They also offer free wifi. They have HUGE front loader washers which is what I use. When our big bedspreads and blankets need a good washing, I take it to the Laundry Factory. Their big washers can even handle TWO queen bed spreads at a time and it still has enough elbow room to agitate the clothes to get them nice and clean. Their dryers also come in different sizes, their largest can handle about four loads of laundry and dry them fast. Honestly, I don't go to the laundromat often, but I'm glad this place exists for when I do. Not only are their facilities in awesome condition, but the amenities they offer while cleaning your clothes give them a huge edge over any other laundromat in Pittsburgh.

output: Yuck. I was in the area and hungry so I decided to stop in for the Sunday brunch buffet, which is $11.99 pp with a players card. It was a little after noon when we got there but the brunch is supposed to be until 3. All the breakfast items were cold, old and hard. I tried the eggs and they were hard and crusty. The French toast was rock hard and the sausage patties were inedible. The best thing I had was a bagel with lox and cream cheese! The dessert section was lame, but they did have gelato and a variety of soft cookies. I tried the spumomi gelato and added little mini marshmallows on top and I almost broke my tooth chewing on one of the marshmallows. I will not be back.

OK, what is everyone else seeing here that I didn't? Yeah, I went for a weekday lunch instead of for Sunday brunch but shouldn't it still be at least a good experience? On the plus side, the physical space is special - lots of exposed brick, high ceilings, worn wood floors, lots of windows for natural light. The restaurant was only about 1/3 full at 12:30 pm on a Wednesday. It is definitely NOT handicapped accessible. The only access to the space is a very long, very steep flight of stairs. (Even the server told us that cases of food, wine and beer kegs have to be lugged up those stairs, there isn't even a freight elevator in the building.) I ordered the potato bisque (a menu staple) and the chef salad special. Our server forgot my soup and brought it out after she'd served my entree salad. The meats in the salad seemed like cold cuts - in fact, rather than being served julienned or chopped in the salad, they were simply layered on - rounds pieces of cold cuts in the salad! The ranch dressing was likely homemade but was runny in texture and bland in flavor. My chocolate cake dessert was okay - but not $7 worth of okay. My companion enjoyed the crab cake on top of an otherwise ordinary looking salad and she raved about the tiramisu. Our server does get points for assisting my companion with a wine selection. She brought out two bottles, let my aunt try both and make a selection. She even let the unchosed sample stay on the table instead of quickly whisking it back to the bar. Parking is a private lot off of South Blvd - but it's very easy to miss the entrance to the parking lot - and once you miss it, you can't access it from any of the neighboring parking lots either! Maybe I'll try again with a Sunday brunch - but the experience will have to be world class amazing to erase my memory of this lunch.
