Pepperoni rolls have long been a staple of West Virginia culture and cuisine. They were allegedly invented there a century ago by an Italian baker named Giuseppe Argiro as a portable lunch for the local coal miners, and they remain a ubiquitous favorite throughout the state today. Though just an hour up the road and with plenty of mines of our own, Pittsburgh's pepperoni roll pedigree is less auspicious, but Rolling Pepperoni is hoping to change that.
The local wholesale bakery recently completed a successful crowdfunding campaign and is expanding to a storefront in Upper Lawrenceville near the 62nd Street Bridge. Owner Katt Schuler, a West Virginia native, says the new space will allow her to experiment more with ingredients in the rolls, including salami and different cheeses. She says the extra space will also boost the bakery's efforts to collect local stories about Appalachia.

In late 2017, Kiehl purchased J & H Jaguar Service, another old garage next door. "It probably should have been knocked over," he said of the commercial building, then vacant for three years.

BLOOD MANOR BACK DOOR
A. wrote to say that he saw some action at Blood Manor on Saturday night that implied a party: “The first floor seemed cleared out when I walked by on Thursday. But on Saturday, they had the windows blacked out and I saw them sneaking people in through the grey side doors at 10pm. Two women were let in by a guy who looked like a bouncer.” I have to note: that sounds like a quieter solution than what we have seen on neighbor’s videos!
