Pens vs, Flames at PPG; Parker’s Pgh Serving Sandwiches and More in Dormont (Tues., 2/7/17)

1) The Pens are playing a home game at PPG Paints Arena tonight against the Calgary Flames. Next up is an away game Thursday against the Colorado Avalanche. The Pens are currently residing in third place in the NHL Metropolitan Division behind the Washington Capitals and the Columbus Blue Jackets.  7 p.m. 1001 Fifth Ave., Uptown.

2) Dormont Dogs may have gone to heaven, but mourners can still order a Dormont dog at Parker’s Pgh, the sandwich-shop now in its place. The menu offers “the original ‘dormont dogs,’” including hot dogs named after Dormont streets, just like the old hotdog shop used to have. Parker’s of course boasts plenty of its own originals. It’s these options that have made it the packed establishment it is today. Located just off Potomac Avenue, Dormont’s main drag, Parker’s specializes in sandwiches, both for breakfast and lunch, plus salads, and sides. Customers can build their own, pick a menu item, or leave their culinary fate in the hands of the artisans with The Lottery Ticket—the staff picks the bun, meats, cheese, and condiments. Their bacon mac and cheese is a hit, and they proudly brew Zeke’s coffee. They also have a limited daily amount of pretzels from the South Side’s Pretzel Shop. Local delivery is available during lunch hours as well. 2911 Glenmore Ave., Dormont. (CM)
