Pier 23 - San Francisco, CA
Pier
23 was one of the more mediocre Triple D experiences I've had, but I will put a
big asterisk beside this one. The reasons being: We ended up going during their
off-season, at 3:00pm, on a Tuesday. The food was okay, and the
atmosphere was pleasant - but it wasn't all that memorable. I would like
to give this place another shot, preferably on a summer weekend, and I'd bet I
would have a better story to tell. The big problem is, I don't find
myself in Cali all that often... so, to be continued, eventually.

Melt Bar & Grilled - Cleveland Heights, OH
The
seemingly endless selection of grilled cheese variations stumped me for a
while, but I decided to stay true to one of my favorite movies and ordered 'The
Dude Abides' - a sandwich tribute to The Big Lebowski. A meatball and
mozzarella cheese stick concoction complete with additional provolone and marinara
sauce, (the whole thing) dusted in Romano cheese. Of course, it showed up
piled high with French fries... I think I may have eaten one just to try them.
The sandwich was fantastic as was the beer, a very good selection ofUS micro-brews
(about 10 taps and plenty of bottles). I could only finish half of this monster
sandwich, but was it ever good. I would definitely return and recommend
it to anyone in the Cleveland
area.

Deluca's Restaurant - Pittsburgh, PA
Nestled in the market district of Pittsburgh, Deluca's was a busy little spot on a Friday morning! Always a good sign.
Now, when I look at the menu in a diner, my eyes always seem to gravitate towards the corned beef hash; this time was no different. I find that the hash is a pretty good benchmark in judging a diner. Deluca's effort was strong, not the best corned beef hash I've ever had, by far, but it was certainly passable. It did it's job, soaking up the leftover booze from the night before and leaving a notable grease stain on my fork.
Portions, huge. Coffee, fresh. Staff, polite and prompt. If you're looking for a greasy spoon in the Steel City, by all means check out Deluca's, a true hard-working-man's, American diner.
