Pittsburgh classic: Primanti Bros.

Pittsburgh's own unique take on the art form of sandwich-making – the Primanti Bros. They make their sandwiches with the standard meat, cheese, and tomato, but also with the more unusual cole slaw and French fries, all on big hunks of Italian bread. I had a capicola sandwich with a fried egg on it and a little hot sauce... I want another one right now. That was a damn fine sandwich. The cured pork and egg were rich a just a little spicy, the cole slaw cool and tangy, and the combination with the fries and all was just fantastic. Tom ordered the cheese steak sandwich, advertised at their #2 best seller (after beer), and was not nearly as enamored with the final product as me. He was expecting a more Philly style steak and received something closer to meatloaf. I can't say if it was just expectations or the flavor or what, I did not try it, all I can say is that mine was great. Don't miss eating here if you are around Pittsburgh. Then buy another sandwich and send me one.
