What part of Pittsburgh you and Max from? Primanti’s aside, what are/were your favorite places to eat in Pittsburgh?
Squirrel Hill, then Fox Chapel.
My dad used to have a little fry joint called Sly’s Fries that made the best fries ever and once he let me bake a GIGANTIC batch of chocolate chip cookies in the industrial oven. Which has nothing to do with your question, really.
I had a serious thing for the moo shu at a restaurant called Tai Pei that’s a bit down from the Water Works. I think it used to be better than it is now but I haven’t been in years and years. I really like Toast!, which is new, and Kaya, which is a block from my cousin’s shop, Mon Aimee Chocolat, at Penn and 21st. Ali Baba’s was another childhood favorite but I hear it’s also gone a tad downhill.
