Years ago, while watching PBS, I stumbled across the greatest show I had ever seen. I can't remember the name but it was essentially one mans travel guide of American cities seen through their signature sandwich. This, before the food and travel network onset if foodie travel shows. Needless to say, the chresesteak was prominently featured as well as NYC hot dogs and the Maine Loster Roll, to name a few. I immediately made it my goal to seek some of these gems out. One that caught my eye was the Primanti Brothers sandwich in Pittsburgh. So much so that when a Pittsburgh road trip was mentioned by a friend, even though I couldn't think of any reason other than sports to visit Pittsburgh, I jumped at the chance and reasoned that at least I can cross that pile of deliciousness off my list. I'll interrupt this review to say that there are many cool things to do in Steel City that I was unaware of, so put it on your "To Do" list of places to visit. I visited the Strip location, which is also the original. Here, you have the option of a sit down restaurant experience or just grabbing takeout and or sitting in the cafe section. We chose to order at the counter and sit nearby to eat. Based on my own preferences, as well as the suggestions of others ( both on Yelp and by other patrons there) we both chose the corned beef. It took a matter of minutes and I LOVED that it was delivered to us on a simple square of wax paper. A nice touch, that allowed us to be messy and able to be cleaned up easy afterwards. For the uninitiated, the gimmick of primanti bros is a hot coldcut sandwich on Italian bread slices with L&T and coleslaw and fries pressed in. The Corned Beef Primanti didn't disappoint. In my opinion, it had the perfect meat/bread/cheese/ topping ratio. It really hit the spot. I'd go as far to say that if we did nothing else in PBurgh, it was worth the trip. My friend was a little nonplussed that their bathroom stalls didn't have doors but I didn't go there to poop, I went there to do the opposite! You should too! Put it on your bucket list and get your hands on one.
