Pamela's is a Pittsburgh institution. The food is cheap, plentiful and definitely not for dieters, but delicious for that very reason. My biggest quandary is whether to get the Strawberry Pancakes or the eggs with their unbelievable home fries.
It does get very busy, especially on weekends, and every location is cash only, so be aware of that. But I'd be hard-pressed to find a breakfast place anywhere that can match Pamela's.
