.......that make your city your city. i was reading thru a few posts & i mentioned 'quintessential foods' in the 'burgh, & as there's many newer discusscookers, i figured i'd post this so they could contribute.
so i'm a pittsburgher. 1 item that makes us, us is a primanti's sammich- meats, cheeses, other items (eggs & that if ya tack that onto your order)), then fries & slaw, piled on.
then there's pittsburgh-salads- lettuce, tomato, those usuals, then they pile on fries, provolone &/or mozzarella, then chix or beef. me & my mom got these so often when my Dad was busy. i'd drench my salad in bleu cheese.
the pizzas, the're great if made properly. there is mineo's, & aiello's is a competitor. both make great, great pies, although i prefer aiello's as thier crust is thicker & thier dinner salads/dressing, yep!
there's other foods, too, although other (non-pennsylvanian) regions also make these items, too, though. the frozen pierogies, they're produced here, although others make thier own themselves , also haluski (cabbage/drenched in butter/onions,haluski noodles, [2 kinds i've dined on:- thick & rustic, or egg noodles. i so prefer the egg-noodles.] usually some pepper.)
kep-utch, the edible sort- is made here, & clark-bars & klondikes.. hunt's or generic kep-utch makes me shudder.
then we have a dialect aptly named 'pittsburghese.' yins, sammich, dahntahn, jeet yet, 'iggle, chip-chop ham, blitzburgh, pop, spikot, stillers, picksburgh, worsh, there's so many others than these.....
there's the strip district that includes many, many items & eateries. penzy spices sold there. there's the southside, that's where the alcohol is quite abundant, & i'm putting that very gently. the pens & the stillers.
wholey & thier seafoods.
& during Christmas & the remainder of winter, the decorate most of the city so laboriously, amazing.
so, your city is great for.....

But they are prized elsewhere and are sooo good! Especially grilled with a bit of plum sauce.
