[@theneurochemist5267]

Rick Sebak is this one man on earth you need to adore. His voice, his smile, his videos. Just gotta love him.

[@mynameissuelive3191]

He is the original diner drive ins and dives. Great show Rick sebek

[@lawrence142002]

How dare you sully Rick Sebak by comparing him to that hack Guy Fieri!

[@gaylewieneke7084]

He's not nearly as annoying as Guy Fieri.

[@alyssamcclelland3069]

every time i feel homesick or nostalgic rick sebak always comes thru for me. what a wonderful man.

[@matthewickman]

I'm not even from PA and he does that for me somehow, too.

[@pickelbarrelofficial1256]

I'm not even American and I get the same thing.

[@JettBlast]

I have always enjoyed the programming of WQED, Mr. Rodgers Neighborhood, and awesome shows like this one! Pittsburgh has contributed so much great culture to our wonderful country. America we are so fortunate to have all our citizens and thier great history from contributing all the families given to us and have made this incredible land a home of wonderful variety.

[@WilliamSarokon]

👍🏻💯

[@retrocute]

Sebak's voice instantly makes me think of food. Mostly hotdogs

[@awblenko]

Wonderful piece about one of the many things that make our town special. What a treasure we have in Rick Sebak and WQED - thanks!

[@drifter1dc]

Rick you are a Burgh treasure....they all looked great.....what a wonderful concept......other Pgh communities take note!

[@timmysmilesaloto2018]

I love watching these videos. Rick is all burg. Thanks buddy what a pro!

[@jquintosfootgolf4735]

Nobody at 1am: KZbin: hey you wanna watch a 7 year old PBS video about sandwiches from a city you've never been to? Me: of course, let's go.

[@larrysproul9424]

I thought it was well done . A very positive report .

[@jerryskaggs9653]

You need to visit Pittsburgh! We live here and this is just the North Side, or in local vernacular “Norseide”

[@euripidiesupman9755]

You're making me homesick! I moved away in 1970 and have been back a handful of times, but not since 2001. Gotta get back up 'ere soon.

[@matthewickman]

Born and raised in Portland, OR I like to think we used to have it a little bit like Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh, I love you! You too Rick.

[@ChrisMortensonMorty]

I am visiting Pittsburgh next year as a direct result of these really cool food videos! Thank you Mr. Sebak!

[@wmonger]

It's definitely worth a visit. I have lived in Pittsburgh all my life but also traveled a lot. Pittsburgh has it's up's and down's like any mid sized city but it is a true melting pot of people and culture, I wouldn't choose to live anywhere else.

[@shellyrae9281]

Love love love Rick's docs!

[@MrsBowzr86]

Makes me want to go home NOW! Oh Pittsburgh how I do miss you :(

[@Mr.Death101]

Miss u2

[@ramencurry6672]

American northern cities have more charm than southern cities. I can see why people love the cities of Pittsburgh and Chicago.

[@phaedrabacker2004]

Thanks for the tour.

[@soldierofwar666]

What I miss about Pittsburgh is that feeling you could walk into any little corner bar or restaurant and get an amazing meal for a good price.

[@warrenjones376]

Don't forget number 12 Terry Bradshaw, 14 seasons with the Steele Curtain. I'm from Philly (Philadelphia) and a big Eagles fan. Nothing out does 4 Super Bowls in 6 seasons. The pride I felt as a Pennsylvanian, the Steelers put PA on the map . I'm still waiting for a all state Super Bowl between the Curtain and the Birds. If the Birds learn to win one or keep the lead after half time maybe it will come to fruition? Go Pennsylvania!

[@flymomabug]

"an hysterical landmark" ~ love!!!

[@WilliamSarokon]

The wife & myself are coming for a Spartan this weekend. Coming for a Spartan!!! Pittsburgh is a great city. I spent a year of my juvenile life in the North Side. West North Avenue. Thanks for the video. Pittsburgh is diversity personified!!!!💯👍🏻❣

[@tonywestvirginia]

Great show!! Thank You!

[@anniefinch6843]

Nice documentary.

[@WQED]

Thanks, Annie!

[@Mr.Death101]

I literally went to the Northside sandwich festival the year after this where it was at the elks club down in Northside by Sunoco and I voted for those Penn brewery northsiders. Unbelievably great and amazing.

[@verticalhorizon4633]

Rick, always good stuff.

[@matthewmace3566]

i've heard your voice many times for years and today was the first time i can put a face with it. seems like a nice to meetcha.

[@lukkyluciano]

I was in Rick's "Things that are still here" doc, those are my hands flipping donuts

[@pghTC420]

. . . .growing up Steve's was known as the New York Hot Dog and next door was Toula's who once worked at the New York

[@bobbyplummer4415]

Northside rocks Perrysville and federal st ext lovve ityou had to be tuff back in the 60s and 70s

[@bisket2003]

[@j887276]

[@007twm]

[@jmakhlouf422]

Although Dallas is nice, I miss my Lady, Pittsburgh.

[@donnadressler3766]

The fish sandwich at Bobby's on 51 are amazing!!!!

[@MasonryDoctor]

Great outlook for pittsburgh

[@tuckermoreland147]

years ago i was an otr driver. jersey, nyc, and closeby long island places had lot's of roach coaches serving local business. and i would buy their sandwiches. i would be waiting to load or unload and the sandwiches were large. filled with great meat and condiments but almost always served on a hard portuguese buns. the fillings were great the buns were outstanding and they were way beyond affordable. nowhere else in the country seems to have those delicious buns, if anyone has a recipe i would be more than interested!!!!!!!!!

[@JD-te9tj]

Darn Rick...I live in Johnstown PA. now, I sure miss da, burgh.

[@levisanimations9872]

28:35 he is a great family friend!! He opened up a restaurant but it didn’t make it sadly

[@afhyoutube]

I love our yinzers.

[@keith_franz]

Sad to say, but Billys Bistro on Troy Hill closed down a couple years ago. They had an excellent Ruben and the inside of that place was pretty cool. Had a beautiful tin ceiling too.

[@DRACOFURY]

*0:21** THAT PLATE OF FISH & CHIPS IS HUGE*

[@WilliamWonka7777]

Best video ever . USA USA USA

[@bobbyplummer4415]

Oh my grandmother was a school guard for 33 yearsat north Ave and arch st

[@markmccreary9605]

My friend Terry and I would take road trips to Pepi's and pick up a half dozen subs at a time. The meatball and provolone might be the best I ever had plus the chicken parm and the ham and cheese was insane smothered in veggies.

[@FIRSTNAMELASTNAME-zt4kf]

Rip "the o".

[@davidhartding800]

I now want a Sparten! When I lived in Chicago I would get Gyro Cheeseburgers.

[@markriffey8899]

That Roethlisberger sandwich would treat my G.I. system the same way Ben would treat a sorority girl.

[@arthurmorgan9559]

Ben Roethlisberger seems like a guy you don't want to fuck around with

[@wolfyklip]

NOT a Gy-ro, ITS Yee-roh!!! DAMM IT!!!

[@nashvilletennessee3194]

Not in the burg it ain't LOL! Yinz guys should know that!

[@lawrence142002]

Not here it ain't.

[@FIRSTNAMELASTNAME-zt4kf]

Actually it can be pronounced either way both are correct.

[@bobbyplummer4415]

Grew up in Northside perrysville extension I miss home

[@DanielFrost21]

2:07-2:10: Bro, don't push down on hamburgers while they're cooking. It squeezes all the juice out.

[@bonnevillebagger9147]

PikaPresSMC1 I prefer them less “juicy” crispy is the texture I like on burgers(medium rare).

[@cliffcox7643]

Seems to be a culinaire's paradise.

[@Ricopolico]

Oh why did Sebak have to remind me of the Big O? Dammit.

[@lawrence142002]

I'll miss that place...

[@lukkyluciano]

was Steve's called Toula's?, it was either Steve's or El Burro, back in 2000, both buildings were hot dog places

[@LordOfNothingham]

I’m surprised this played through without a pledge drive.

[@davidasher8718]

Oh yes, Pittsburgh, that noted seafood town

[@nadinemcpeak4803]

now im hungry

[@jasonspurley492]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🎯

[@jerryc3240]

This is great i'm hungry for a sammich

[@poefranz]

I thought I'd go with my wife and daughter this year but with every good thing, it's all about the money. Now it's $35/person and beer cost extra. I've lived here for almost 2 years and migrated them LEGALLY into the US. I know this video was several years ago but I'm not paying $105 for bite sized sandwiches! Drinks prob another $10 each

[@inayathkhan100]

Too good yammy sand switched and burgers

[@jmcclelland85]

Every time I visit Pittsburgh I avoid the North Side because I thought i was unsafe thanks to the News Media. I hear almost every night about a shooting or stabbing on the north side If this aint true let me know I may venture there the next time.

[@johnj5726]

Watching this hungrier then ever. But I got a toothache and can’t eat. 😭😭😭

[@animal16365]

I wish he would do a video on Anthrocon

[@loengkeoi]

[@arthurmorgan9559]

The "O" is no more

[@greytoeimp]

Pittsburghers can't say 'chipotle' :P

[@viniciuscalifornia]

Pitts''Burgh'' =)

[@CP-os1pc]

Tessaros loved it Not a better burger or potato salad anywhere

[@miltonjohnson4345]

[@cliffcox7643]

A rolled taco... Does he mean a taquito?

[@MettaChaphiv]

[@justinwhalen9262]

The general gentle october dewailly discover because storm macroscopically mess up near a blushing coin. direful, icky elbow

[@Acer-dh6qm]

Wait a minute, everyone knows a burger is NOT a sandwich. What the heck you doin there?

[@conniebaughman9894]

What with the Polish a Rubin NO Polish sauerkraut? Sacrilege!

[@moogle5388]

Does anyone else feel very uncomfortable that almost no one was using gloves when preparing the sandwiches * shivers *

[@Howiesgirl]

Things in food service were like that back then. I worked in restaurants for many years, in several restaurants & married a highly trained chef who worked at a top resort in Orlando, FLA, & never saw a glove & neither did he. But I can assure you that a LOT of hand washing went on. It's just the way it was. No one but actual surgeons wore gloves in hospitals either. I can remember when HIV/AIDS first hit- it was so odd to see the phlebotomists at the lab putting on gloves before drawing people's blood. Now all that is just standard procedure. Yeah, that makes me kinda old... I'm 55.

[@tomifost]

Gloves dont end up carrying any less pathogens than washed hands do. Sometimes even more.

[@shuralbaskerville9754]

That's a nice SALAD on bread. Really ppl.

[@rentatrip1videos]

Los Angeles , ...Philippe’s / Tommy's _///// El Terasco / Mickey's(Hermosa Bch) /

[@kevinlavallee2432]

far to many eat samples Rick. Talk about pork belly.

[@Lisa-ps2rv]

🤦‍♀️ that girl's chipped nail polish while preparing food.

[@arthurmorgan9559]

I don't think people really care about anything back in those days

[@NurseSue425]

I probably will be banned from the Burgh after this. But I thought primamtis hamburgers sucked !!! The bread is cold. Yuk. I’m sure there are better

[@alaskiss848]

I grew up in the Pittsburgh area and never ate there once. I moved away in the early 90’s. In the early 2000s, I saw it on one of the Food Network shows so I decided to try it. Not impressed at all. I don’t get the hype.

[@emailfilter7107]

Nice to see the small restaurateurs, but how about some food prep HYGIENE. SO GROSS to see no gloves on the people making sandwiches by hand. What is wrong with these folks? And this is how they behave on camera, let alone when they're not on display. Yuck!
