Pittsburgh PA – A real steelworker town

Pittsburgh Pennsylvania is a town with its own unique character.  The three rivers area when we visited there was not as clean or sophisticated as many other cities in the region but it had a raw edge that proved enticing.  The Primanti Brothers restaurant located near downtown in the warehouse district is uniquely suited to the city. Where else can you buy a “Pitts-burger” which is made up of a pound of fatty hamburger between who thick pieces of sliced bread and topped with a mammoth portion of french fries and Cole slaw. To me it was a gross concoction but they filled the place everyday with loyal Steeler fans who gobbled them up.
