“Best Breakfast in Town” T-shirt & a Stack of Eggs
DeLuca’s on Penn Ave in the Strip District. Varied reviews online and some folks don’t think it worth the wait on a Saturday morning. We did! I had two eggs over easy and Italian toast to dip, some homefries. Everything arrived hot and tasty. Best part was conversation over traditional breakfast in an energetic Pittsburghy atmosphere. Walked across the street to Pennsylvania Macaroni Company and then a chocolate covered macaroon from Enrico’s Biscotti. My friend Tess suggested I photograph the stack of eggs and I asked at the register if it would be okay. Then Tess said, “get the back of the shirt, too.” Good idea. You could spend the day in the Strip with the camera. Lots to see. Thanks Tess.(and Thom, too!)
How about this stack of eggs?
I remember going there before Erika picked out her wedding flowers

When we shop at the Strip, it’s always a decision – should we have breakfast at DeLuca’s or Pamela’s!!
We try to give them equal business!! Eggs are Mike’s all time favorites!! There are so many great places to eat and shop in The Strip District. We try to go on a week day – vibrant place!

Love the stacked eggs….I never see that anymore! I could go to a “Mom & Pop” diner anytime! The locals are always there, everyone is friendly, no one makes you hurry, and you can order breakfast any time of the day!!
Miss you always, Ruthie!

Have been to DeLuca’s just once but still remember that breakfast. One year at Long Beach Island, NJ we had dinner regularly at Noller’s Diner and daughter Betsy wrote about it and drew a picture in second grade of “Noller’s Dinner.”
