College towns and pizza joints go together like peanut butter and jelly. In Morgantown, another one entered the scenee: 2G Brothers Pizza.



Based in Uniontown, Pennsylvania, 2G Brothers Pizza opened their second location in Cheat Lake.



"2G Brothers Pizza comes from 45 years of experience starting from Italy to Brooklyn, to now Uniontown. Gio and Giuseppe Schiano's father is the reason they're the proud owners of 2G Brothers Pizza. The brothers started helping their dad as young as 5-years-old making pizza, fetching ice, and other odd jobs they could find. Now it's time for the boys to carry on their father's proud legacy," reads the website.



"The Schiano brothers pride themselves on authentic cuisine that isn't made by machines but with labor and love. At 2G Brothers Pizza nothing is frozen and everything is fresh. Enjoy food from an actual Italian kitchen, made the Schiano way for nearly 50 years."



Even though pizza is the namesake, 2G Brothers Pizza offers fried apps, wings, salads, strombolis, calzones, subs, sanndwiches, burgers, wraps, paninis, pasta, soup, and more. I ordered the hot pepper cheese balls (guilty pleasure - always delish) andn the gnocchi to try something different. I went with the oil & garlic sauce, which was less of a sauce and just more of a "coating." I loved the huge chunks of garlic though and a kick of chili pepper. It ate a bit dry because there wasn't much of a "sauce," but I did enjoy the flavor.

Hello Vietnam is a locally owned restaurant in Bridgeport that highlights pho and banh mi.



The small restaurant has minimal seating, so I placed an order to go.



Instead of pho or banh mi, though, I went with something different.



Bun Thit Nuong - or vermicelli bowl - consists of rice noodles, grilled pork, vegetables, shrimp and pickles.



I love noodles in every cuisine. And here, they are served in the light, vinegary way. The dish eats very clean and fresh. Absolutely delightful.

"At The ROQ, we provide a completely unique atmosphere paired with exceptional service. Customize your evening entirely!" reads the website.



Located in the basement of The Quarrier Diner, The Roq has been hosting a salsa band and serving up specialty drinks for over a year now.



More recently, they added food - bar bites and flatbreads. Bar bites consist of bacon-wrapped dates, pulled pork sliders, and shrimp cocktail.



The flatbreads include cheese, three meats, caprese, annd the portobello & garlic onion - which is what I chose. Portobello mushrooms, roasted red peppers, garlic onions, shredded provolone, smoked bleu cheese andn garlic oil base.



Paired with my "Lychee Drank," which has vodka, St. Germainn, lychee puree and lemon, this was really quite good. I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised with this little bite. It had enough flavor to be satisfying and just enough funk to keep it interesting. Just know that your breath will never be the same.

Cheri's Sugar Shack was a pop-up bakery shop at the Charleston Coliseum & Convention Center. Cheri moved onto a new role recently, so it's unclear what that means for the sugar shack. But while it was here, it was wonderful. You could get pepperoni rolls, cakes, pastries and even quick lunches - like potato soup and a hunk of bread. One of my favorites was a white cheddar & thyme scone. A slice of cookies & cream cake was a like an Oreo, but even better. The hours and parking were a bit limiting, but most of the food I tried was worth it. Did you get a chance to go? Grade: B
