It could quite possibly be a South Florida landmark just like it is in Pennsylvania, but yesterday's GWWE mystery is solved.

They may not claim to be the best at everything, but Primanti Bros. -- this Wilton Manors location in particular -- does quite a few things right: pizza, pastrami sandwiches, and loving Pittsburgh.

One of three South Florida locations (the only Primanti spots outside of Pennsylvania), this Primanti openly shares the love of its hometown team, the Pittsburgh Steelers. Memorabilia line the walls, and when you're not gazing at an artifact to remind you of the Steel City, you'll find press clippings about the restaurant.

And the bragging rights are well-deserved. Although you think you may not be too keen with a pastrami sandwich piled high with meat, cheese, tomato, coleslaw, and French fries, don't be discouraged. The taste alone is worth the indigestion.
