𝗣𝗶𝘁𝘁𝘀𝗯𝘂𝗿𝗴𝗵'𝘀 𝗕𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗕𝘂𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗿!
I've lived down the block from @jamisons_west_liberty for a while now. I finally visited for some beers, baseball, wings and most of all their @the_pittsburgher First Place winning Stout and Straw Burger. Their new trophy was displayed and even though I already ate some wings I had to go for it. This burger is amazing and topped with beer cheese, mushrooms, thick cut bacon and onion straws. First time in a while a meal basically beat me. That said, I'll be back and often.

𝗣𝗶𝘁𝘁𝘀𝗯𝘂𝗿𝗴𝗵 𝗣𝗶𝘇𝘇𝗮 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝘄𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻!!! Last week I attend the Pittsburgh Pizza Showdown and beer pairing at @bierport. I love when they do these beer pairing events and I get to try some different foods. For the Pittsburgh Pizza Showdown they went with some of the true classics from Mineos, Vincent's Pizza Park, Beto's and Fiori's. It was definitely great to have some of these some of these again or for the first time. For a couple I don't think I need to try them again for a while.

If looking for an alternative to the usual brunch options, check out @overedenpgh at the @tryppgh. They just started offering their amazing menu for weekend lunch. I got a wide range of different starters like the pickled veggies and the brussel sprouts. My pita was overflowing with lamb shawarma. Best of all is getting to see that awesome view during the day!

I swear every time I go to @fogo De Chao I get to try new dishes and experience new things. This time they just added new items for Fall to the menu like NY Strip Steak (which is one of my favorite cuts), Butternut & Kale Salad and Pear & Endive Salad. These add in so well with the usual items like the different cuts of beef pichana top sirloin & ribeye, pork chops and ribs. I also got a ton of my favorite bacon of all time! After dinner we were able to get a full tour or the restaurant and meet Rudy who runs their grills.

Yesterday @pghcitypaper hosted Brunched! I think I ate so many baked goods, tasted so much coffee and downed a few mimosas. What a delicious way to spend those hours that were too late for breakfast but not quite right for lunch. Here are some of my favorite items and pics from the day. More are in the Stories! #Brunched

I finally made my way over to @honeygrow in East Liberty for lunch the other day. I decided to go with their seasonal Harvest Soba Stir-fry. My diet has been lacking something called vegetables lately and this stir-fry was a great way for me to get some veggies without eating a salad. It was made with soba noodles, carrots, parsnips, rutabaga and kale. Cooked in a ginger garlic scallion sauce this dish was full of flavor. I'll have to try out more soon!

I'm currently in the Poconos where I grew up attending the wedding of my friends @krh205 & @robtaggart. After a beautiful outdoor ceremony we were well fed with this amazing dinner buffet with flank steak and chicken with a wide range of veggies! More amazing was the whole dinner was catered by her uncle. She joking asked if I was going to post the meal. It was all so fantastic that's how could I not.

𝗣𝗔 𝗥𝗼𝗮𝗱 𝗧𝗿𝗶𝗽 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗦𝗵𝗲𝗲𝘁𝘇!!! Heading across Pennsylvania from Pittsburgh to NEPA can be a long drive. Luckily I had @Sheetz available to me the whole drive. I started with a Kona Frozen Mocha on my way out of town. Then a turkey & bacon on a pretzel roll for a Midway dinner stop. Later when I stopped for gas I got some Cinnapopperz for dessert. And finally the next morning I got myself a loaded breakfast sandwich and coffee to get my day going! Sheetz definitely made my drive so much easier! #sponsored #sheetzpartner

Oh man. What a day at @pghpierogifestival at @kennywoodpark! I got to try so many different pierogis and styles of being prepared. I got a pretty great pic with @pittsburghpierogies Oliver Onion (even if Potato Pete is my favorite). I learned that Holy Ghost Byzantine Church has the best Pirohi in the city without a doubt. @mrstspierogies still makes a great classic potato and cheese pierogi. This was just a small bit of what I got to try today. I even managed to get in one ride on a rollercoaster. #cityofdumplings
