What are you thinking Jeff?  Big sandwiches at Primanti Brothers down in the Strip for some local flavor?

That is one of my favorites, Forester, or we could shock 'em with some O fries and dogs (Original hotdog shop) in beautiful Oakland, on Pitt's campus.  Or maybe something down at Station square in full view of the Point.  Lots of options in Pittsburgh.

"O" the memories...maybe we shouldn't go there  :)  ....Station Square could be a good option.

Not really a mall, but not what Rick is thinking of either...it's a market district downtown with fresh goods during the day and several eateries.  There are a few night spots and clubs but I can't speak to the entertainment venues.  Primanti Brothers is one of the restaurants down on the Strip, if you want fries with your sandwich you will likely find them on the sandwich...It's a good thing.

Welcome Brad!  Yes, Monty and Mark will both be there.  Better brace yourself, you might have a lot more friends after that weekend is over.
Heck, if we knew you lived so close, we could have had it at your place!  
Glad you are coming!

Unfortunately will not be able to attend :^(  To many things happened last year, moving, new job, getting married.  I am planning ahead for the next one though.  I will not be caught off guard again!  Jack, have fun at Hooters and eat some wings for me!   Joseph

Joseph, we will miss you.  I hope the move, job and marriage are all good things.  Congratulations!  Looking forward to seeing you at the next one if not in-between. Happy New Year to you.

I almost forgot about the Penn Brewery.  Jack could be a very happy guy....

We bumpkins in the midwest pile our fries on the side of the plate...not on top of the sandwhich.  I didn't realize that I've been doing it wrong all this time!

Joseph do you mean I have to eat all those wings and drink all that beer all by myself. I don't know if I am up to that.  :help:  
Hooters and Penn Brewery wow this could be a heavenly trip.  ;)

When we were in Pittsburgh for the Council meeting last March, we ate one night at a large church that was converted into a brewery/restaurant.  Really good food there!  Can't think of the name of it...do you know of it, Duane?  
My wife and I also ate lunch one day at the Walnut Street Grill.  Good grub and drinks there as well.

A bunch of us went to a Brazialian steakhouse in SLC and it was awesome.  I love those places and not a vegetarian in sight!  But, I thnk that was the night (Thurs?) that we have the BBQ in P-burgh.
