July 23, 2010

Aaron & Ari's – Pittsburgh, PA

February 25, 2010

There aren’t that many Kosher places to eat in my home town, Pittsburgh. The “fancy” sit down place (Pinati’s) closed down last year and that left two places that are more “fast food” types of places (well, two and a half if you count the Dunkin’ Donuts). Aaron & Ari’s is one of the two [...]
