I want to start my reviews of Pittsburgh stating that I love it. Not for the food, not for the ngiht life, but for the fact that I have such fantastic friends living there who make it an amazing, fun, carefree experience to visit them. They also get really excited about food in Pittsburgh, and after an amazing night out where we slept at 530 AM we woke up and decided to go for brunch at the famous Pamela's. \nWe walked in to a large diner, with the smell of corned beef, eggs and browned sugar welcoming us.\nAfter perusing the menu and looking around me, I decided on the corned beef and swiss omelette, the onion rings and a blueberry crepe order to share with Georges. Andrea ordered eggs with bacon and ham (yes both), as Alejandro, and Georges ordered the chorizo patties with eggs. After adding an extra order of lyonnaise potatoes we decided to start with those.\nThe food was...well disappointing. Everything was covered in margarine (not butter, not olive oil but margarine), the chorizo was greasy, and the pancakes were beyond disappointing, shooting into the land of mediocrity whose anthem starts with \"you must be kidding, these are famous?\"\nThe only things I liked were the onion rings and the lyonnaise potatoes which were only ok, but compared to the rest were-well, better.\nI will be back to Pittsburgh to see everyone I love very much, but I do not think Pamela and I will meet again.
