Dirty Pasta, Swedish Candy & Dinner Under a Volcano?
Still mourning Stuntpig's closure in Squirrel Hill? Executive producer Mallory Falk and producer Sophia Lo have recommendations for new sandwich shops and some hot takes about what's considered an ideal pool sandwich. We're also talking about Butcher and the Rye's triumphant return to Downtown, rumors that we may finally be getting a restaurant with a volcano, and why you should splurge on sour gummy candy from a truck.
