Being an IUP Alum from Philly; I have made MANY wknd trips to Pgh over the past 10 years to visit my college friends. We usually frequent South Side for our dining pleasures but my friend took us to Meat & Potatoes for brunch after our marathon style Saint Patrick's Day rage-fest last year.
Not being a huge breakfast food person but still looking for something to "soak up the booze"; I opted for the five-cheese grilled cheese and tomato soup! It was HUGE and DELICIOUS! I'm pretty sure someone at the table had Chicken & Waffles and another had Huevos Rancheros which were also amazing! I also remember diving into someone else's left over fried taters. Yum! I needed a nap after this one.
It has been a while since I was at Meat & Potatoes but I remember a large make-your-own Bloody Mary bar. Great for the Sunday Funday hangy cure.
Next time I am in Pgh, I may request a return visit to Meat & Potatoes!
