Had a real nice time in Pittsburgh this weekend.  Only took about 4 and a half hours to get there.  We arrived around 10pm and went directly to Primanti Bros’ original location and ordered a Pastrami sandwich that came with a scoop of cole slaw, a runny egg and a mound of french fries in between two huge slabs of Italian bread.  It was good but I don’t think it was as good as Adam Richman (Man Vs Food) made it seem.  The guy had an orgasm eating it!  This was good but not food orgasm good.  In fact I doused mine in hot sauce just to pick up some flavor.

The next day we rode the Duquesne Incline and toured the Andy Warhol museum.  How could I not go to the Andy Warhol Museum?  He and I share the same heritage!

Right after the museum we drove to Kelly O’s.  We found out about Kelly O’s from Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives.  Guy Fieri visited Kelly and learned all about HALUSKI!  Talk about my heritage!  Watching her fry up all that cabbage, I knew I had to go and partake in some of that gassy loveliness!  Here’s the thing, Kelly makes her Haluski with BACON.  Yes, BACON!  This is pretty crazy since Haluski is typically eaten when you can’t eat meat.  And if you are going to eat meat AND eat Haluski, you just boil some Kielbasa along side it.  Still, the bacon was an interesting addition.  Pookie Bear loved it and ordered seconds.  I enjoyed it but must say that my Haluski is better.

We left Kelly O’s and drove home.  I was surprised I didn’t once have to stick my head out the window for air as I had feared.
