I don't have any recommendations as I've only been to Pittsburgh once, several years ago, but I do remember not looking forward to my trip because I kind of pictured Pittsburgh to be sort of like Detroit (No offense Detroiters!) but I was totally shocked on how awesome Pittsburgh was. Clean vibrant city, filled with lots of good bars and young good looking people! I went to a Pirates game 1 night and just had a blast. The people there were fantastic and that was when the Pirates were absolutely dreadful.

Pittsburgh is a pretty cool city. I liked the museum at the fort in the middle of the three rivers junction. The museum is a little light on artifacts, but the displays are great if you have the time to read them. I learned a lot about colonial time history, along with indian and French history of the area.

Every sandwich I ate in Pittsburgh was the best sandwich I've had in my life. Yuengling beer is generally very good, but varies a little as it is sometimes flat.
