    stumbled across this thread and had a bit of nostalgia for home. i grew up there and stayed until 21 or 22. i really probably know less about pittsburgh than others as growing up there i kind of fell into routine/comfortable habits but here are a few of my fonder memories (if they still exist...i haven't lived there for five years now):

    -the harris grill in shadyside: great place for drinks (and food) with a pretty diverse/welcoming crowd. they have a nice big patio out front which is nice in summer. in shadyside but not quite a "shadyside bar" if that makes sense

    -the william penn tavern in shadyside: a bit of a "sports" bar with a bit more drunkards than the harris, but a good vibe and again, a nice outdoor area out back which is nice in summer

    -gooskis in polish hill: a bit of a hipster haunt, but it's a nice local bar with a good beer selection/good beer specials and occasional live music.

    -mineo's or aiello's in squirrel hill: every city needs a good food rivalry. either one probably gets my vote for the best pizza in pittsburgh. there's definitely a bit of hype feeding the popularity, but you can't deny that either one is great. just down the street from eachother.

    -kazansky's deli in squirrel hill: good jewish deli/restaurant and six-pack shop with a good menu and a decent selection of beer.

    -spice island tea house in oakland: good thai food and a nice mellow vibe afternoon/night in a neighborhood filled with drunk college kids. that was a nice safe haven for lunch when i was a student at pitt

    -pamela's in squirrel hill or the strip district: just a nice local neighborhood breakfast spot. nothing fancy, nothing too "cool" either. the one in the strip gets pretty packed. the squirrel hill location usually isn't bad.

    it's pretty evident that most of my time was spent in the squirrel hill/shadyside area, but that was for good reason. squirrel hill was a great place to live...fairly central, good neighborhood vibe, quiet but entertaining at the same time. shadyside was good for nights...just far away enough from the college madness, cute girls, a good mix of bars with good style and atmosphere. there are lots of other great areas that i never explored though because i was sort of stuck (in a good way?) in my little circles. but i always liked my route in shadyside/squirrel hill because everywhere i went, there were always people i knew and it was always a good mix of styles i'd say...

    either way, it's a great city and damn, after typing this, i think i'd love to get back there...

    it's been said already that the shopping isn't great...which i can vouch for that. however, i haven't been there for five years, so i'm sure a bit (if not a lot) has changed in that time.

    winstonrodeny: much appreciated

    for others who'd like to cry the tired old "proxy/reseller" argument as vinnie, the noragi was bought as a customer had requested a similar item (luxsic). it was the last one available so i decided to pick it up for them in the off chance that it would be an ok alternative. turns out it wasn't, which is no problem. however i figured i'd see if anyone else is interested in it...for a fraction of Union/other "non-reseller" shop prices. sincere apologies, vinnie.
