A sunny afternoon with surprise babysitting coverage (thanks Mom!), and Ted and I have a few minutes to spend around Squirrel Hill. We popped into our favorite deli, the classic Smallman Street Deli with fantastic sandwiches, pickles, and even a great selection of craft beers.
Aladdin’s Eatery: Everything you could wish for!
It’s tough to count the number of times or various occasions we’ve gone to Aladdin’s—it’s by far the best middle eastern food we’ve had in Pittsburgh, and quite probably our go-to favorite restaurant. We’ve celebrated many occasions here, from birthdays to Mother’s Day, to Valentine’s Day, to just-because day. It’s an easy ambiance to dress up or down, and it never disappoints.
