  • OK...let me preface this by saying I too was swayed by Adam swooning over a sandwich on Man Vs. Food...I think he nearly passed out from pleasure. So, when my family and I found ourselves in downtown Pittsburgh, hungry as heck, passing this famous restaurant, I said "OMG, there's that place with the fries on the sandwich!!" Wifey said 'why not' and son/man-child mumbled something incoherent about 'hungry'. We were seated quickly (large wood booth...we aren't the slimmest family), since the place was mostly empty. No menu? OHHH...it's one of those places where you just look up on the chalkboard. COOL!! I had the Cheesesteak, wifey had the roast beef something or other, and my son/man-child had the kid's cheeseburger. Cokes all around. No need to order sides of fries or coleslaw, CUZ IT COMES ON THE SANDWICH!! How cool is that? I regaled my family with my knowledge... "they created this sandwich so truckers could eat the thing with one hand..." Wifey rolled her eyes and returned to her texting, and son/man-child kept playing his Nintendo 3DS. Hmmm...maybe I'll keep my knowledge to myself for a while. Looked around: Cool paintings/graphics on the walls, sports icons from SteelTown, USA, etc... Long counter with your typical customers doing typical things.. Food arrives in about 15 minutes...Not bad...ready to chow down!!! Smells great!!! And... Umm... a bunch of coleslaw slid out of my sandwich into my lap. Wifey complained her fries were soggy as h*ll. "should I send it back? are they supposed to soak up the coleslaw liquid?" ManChild ate his cheeseburger in about 3 bites and looked at me in anger, with that "I told you I wanted to go to Taco Bell" accusatory stare... What can I say? I was duped. The sandwiches are flavorless... the fries, had they been crispy, would have been good, but they soak up the coleslaw liquid...so they are mushy. Coleslaw has a TON of vineger, so if you don't like that style (I prefer the mayo-based) you probably won't like it. Interesting concept, but I have no idea why this is Pittsburgh's famous sandwich. Too bad... Adam steered me right in Philly for a cheesesteak, and in Chicago for pizza, and Detroit for a coney dog, but this was a big miss. Pittsburgh needs a new 'must have.' Side note: I was not allowed to choose restaurants the rest of the trip. Thanks Adam!! :-P
