I love forgotten taste and I can't say I've had a bad meal there yet. S&D is also good.

With the passing of old immigrant babas in the city as time naturally goes its hard to find that true good taste. You used to be able to get it everywhere like church and street fairs where they made it in their own kitchens. But these places hold up pretty well.

-someone who grew up eating family recipes as well as this food made by babas and my own.

Edit: op literally named two of the places I would've sent someone.

Hmmmm. Where I come from and where I currently live a lot of stuff keeps weird hours and stuff because of Easter. Thought I’d check. Also PA has super-weird laws about stuff like alcohol so figured they might have some other weird laws.

Anyway, thanks for the warm welcome. Prick.

I can’t remember the exact time but couple years ago my power went out for north of 56 hours. Don’t open your fridge or freezer when your power is out and it’ll stay cold for a shockingly long time.

After we got notice power wasn’t going to be on for a while after 12 hours we started using coolers and what not with ice.

Duquesne light won’t take responsibility for any of your food loss by the way. They will direct you to use your insurance.

If the power's been out long enough that the food in your fridge/freezer went bad, call your homeowner's insurance.

Most homeowner policies have a rider that they'll pay for food spoilage for power outages. Two (?) summers ago we were without power for 10 hours or so and had to toss out everything, right after a major stock up trip, which sucked, but sucked a lot less when we got a reimbursement check after a simple 15 minute phone call.
