But ultimately what I’ve learned about being somewhere, you gotta learn to love what they eat there (bar and pub food) else you ain’t gonna be happy at all.

Daniel: I do actually love indian food — haven’t had a lot here yet (one truck so far which was mediocre). There is actually a place on campus, in the UC that has indian food, but as most of my other experiences with food in the UC have been mediocre, I haven’t actually gotten around to trying it yet. Perhaps I am spoiled coming from a midwestern town with a high asian population, but without my high-quality chinese, korean, and thai places within a stone’s throw, I start to panic a bit. I still need to try the Pitt trucks and one other indian restaurant on Craig before I give up food altogether :)

And yea, I love fries as much (or almost as much) as the next gal, but going to Primanti’s for dinner is not really a valid option more than say, once in a lifetime, with a group of like-minded pittsburgh n00bs. There’s a crepe place in Oakland and in Shadyside — I wonder if they used to have a truck or it’s separate?

CMU taught me to love Indian food, but yeah, you’re right, when I think back a lot of the other stuff was eh. I mean, yeah I do like fries forced into my sandwich, but that’s kind of after drinking food. There was a good Thai place when I was there, but not really within walking distance…

Oh and it was nice to be able to get a crepe from a truck in between afternoon classes. Don’t know if that’s still around.
