| - Yum. That should say it all, but I guess more would be helpful. Salims simply has the best, least-expensive, healthy, portable, study-time food, ever.
When you need to concentrate, but need to eat and are afraid of ending up with something that either will make you feel over-stuffed, heavy and sleepy or, conversely, leave you feeling hungry in an hour, you need to go to Salim's on Center Ave (convenient parking off-street on the side of the building).
Get a container of Mujadera (lentils and rice with browned onions. He will heat it for you. If you eat meat, you can have some added to it.
Get another container of chilled and flavourful tabouli salad and eat them alternating bites.
Buy a container of Salim's delicious rice pudding, but save it as a celebration for completing tasks/finishing your project or paper.
Buy extra containers of everything if you are pulling an all-nighter. This is absolutely the best study/writing food ever. And so delicious!
Salims also has a whole selection of other wonderful foods - both prepared, and hard-to-find grocery items such as Halaal meats, lokum, and various grains and canned goods.
There is also a dining room separate from the main part of the store so you may enjoy your meal in peace.
Whether you are new to the Pittsburgh area, or needing a new favorite place, Salim's is a "must experience" place - one of Pittsburgh's most delightful hidden culinary treasures.
