#FoodPornFriday The best Crêpes I've ever had came from Pittsburgh

Today's #FoodPornFriday pic comes from Pittsburgh.

Before our tip to Pittsburgh a few weeks back I posted on Google+ asking people from the area what we should try to make sure we did on our trip. The first thing that came up was Primanti Bros. I already wrote about that amazing place. The second thing that was mentioned was Pamela's Diner for breakfast. 

I was warned to expect a long wait and that when I got there I had to try the hot cakes. Quite a few more people jumped into the thread and said the same. Everyone kept going on about the hot cakes with many people noting how unique they are.

Well when I got there I found that people in Pittsburgh haven't really heard of crêpes. That's what these hot cakes were, crêpes. Crêpes are pretty common here in Canada, more so the further north you go. So at first I was a bit disappointed. Then I tried them.

OMG they were so good! I have no idea what they do different down there but these were the best damn crêpes I've ever had. Actually they were the best grilled breakfast item I've ever had. Better then all pancakes and even waffles (I really love waffles. Not the Belgian kind, the kind with the small holes). 

I have to agree with my followers on G+, if you are ever in Pittsburgh you owe it to yourself do at least two things. Get a sandwich from Primanti Bros and try some hot cakes cêpes from Pamela's.

It's #FoodPornFriday and I'm looking for other blogs to join in the fun an link up with me. I'm going to be posting one of these every week and you should stop by and link up. I want to see your awesome pictures! For the faint of heart feel free to use #FoodPicFriday 

Fries, slaw, cheese and tomato on every sandwich at Primanti Bros #FoodPornFriday

This fine # FoodPornFridayI find myself in Pittsburgh PA on a family vacation/media trip. We're down here for three days and being shown the sights. Today was our first day and the first place they took us is a world famous restaurant called Primanti Bros. They are a chain now with multiple locations, but we hit up the original in a neighbourhood called The Strip.

Primanti Bros. makes sandwiches. Big damn sandwiches. Big damn sandwiches with fries, cheese, coleslaw and tomato on them. I think the menu had some other stuff, chilli and a few different ways to order just fries but the reason you go to Primanti is for sandwiches.

What you see here is their current featured sandwich: When Pigs Fly which had turkey, ham and bacon piled high and topped with fried egg. Of course it also had tomato, cheese, fries and slaw. It was fantastic and I totally get why everyone told me I had to try this place when I told them I would be here.

Do you have a blog with a drool worthy food post? Why not join in the #FoodPornFriday fun and link up with us?
