| - Perogie's fit in the New and "Old" World.
My first experience at Szmidt's was semi optimistic. The yelp reviews would never steer me wrong, would they? Nope, they didn't...again. Was in the mood for Perogie's one day (actually, months ago), and started surfing for some "homemade" perogie's. A lot of Pittsburgh deli's, and diners have perogie's on the menu, but are 90% of the time Mrs. T's. Don't get me wrong, in a fix, I'll plow some Mrs. T's. But this day I wanted real, authentic, roge's.
I searched the google net for some action, but the only thing that was popping up in the 10 mile search was the same old, same old. There is a joint not a block from me that has GREAT rog's. But I do not dig there style of operation, so I move on in my search. Expanding to 15 miles goes google maps. Then there is a dot on the screen, not a huge arrow, but a small google dot. Me being a small business owner, i like little dots. Little dots smell, passion, care, determination..that is where the jedi was headed.
To Szmidt's, I finally made the journey. LOVE the vibe! Open kitchen, everything aged. I mean not dirty, but aged. There are stories that can be told from this equipment. The love was showing. But now to the order.....
We went around the house for me and the crew at SpitfireZ. Classic Potato and cheese, Jalpaeno & Cheese, Santa fe Chicken, Roast Beef, & the dessert roge picked by the wife .... peanut butter & chocolate. Not a super sweet/chocolate fan, but there was something fun about them. They all were great with there signature sauces.
I love the feel of a small, non-corporate joint. The young vibrations from the staff, makes it fell kinda cool to order from them.....
There MENU IS VAST, I will be reporting more on this place. This Jedi wants to experience it all.
