Former bartender and server: Don't go on Valentines Day. There's usually an overpriced, mediocre prix fixee menu, the place will be packed, and it won't be the lovely, intimate experience you're aiming for. Celebrate your LO a couple days before or after. Food and service will be better and you won't feel rushed so they can turn the table for the next reservation. Wishing you all the best, Homie!

Is it okay to work in? I’m considering taking a position at UPMC in McKeesport and commuting from Pittsburgh. I’m moving from Europe, and I’m having a hard time judging how rough an area it is.

Expand the T. Restore the Brown and Green lines and the old "street car" lines. Then expand the existing system throughout the whole county by creating new lines and/or putting any disused older rails back into service.

You may be right but I've never noticed it. Probably about 2-3 weeks since I last drove through. All it takes is one car trying to turn right from Shady southbound to Forbes westbound to really gum things up on Shady. I suppose an alternative for Shady southbound would be to make it a no left turn at Forbes (not a ton of cars do that anyway), make the left lane straight only and the right lane a dedicated right turn lane.

Same. It was an ok spot for a burger but I haven't gone back since.

Any business that takes a major stand against something like sick time is not one I'm ever going to spend money at again.
