I got the awesome opportunity to visit @jeanlouispgh the other day and experience many of the awesome new and updated dishes by Chef Vincent. This is the Grilled Octopus with Purple Potatoes and garnishes of baba ganoush, caramelized onions and arugula and tomato. The octopus had a nice char on the outside and still very soft on the inside. I'm so excited to keep sharing about these dishes. Definitely make the trip to the South Hills. New blog post will be coming soon!

Last night I visited @bridgesandbourbonpgh to experience items from their upcoming new menu launching sometime in March. My favorites were the pork belly with kimchi brussels and smoked tofu puree and the pillow gnocchi with lemon ricotta and oyster mushrooms. The pork belly was so savory and the gnocchi had great texture and flavor after being lightly fried. We also got to try a new amuse bouche, palette cleanser and desserts. All of these items were very exciting and created an elevated dining experience.

Yesterday was another fantastic Sunny Side Up Brunch by @pghsandwichsociety and @verylocalpgh. This time it was held at the @hitchhikerbrewing Allentown Pop-up. I got a Donut Brunch Burger made with a smashed burger, fried egg, cheddar cheese and a @justgooddonutspgh glazed donut. My brother opted for the fried chicken and biscuit sandwich. I look forward to these pop up brunches every month. Keep an eye out for the next one in March.

I spent my Valentine's Day at @fairlanepgh with friends eating a fantastic meal and drinking some cocktails. It is definitely becoming one of my favorite South Hills restaurants. I got the duck breast as my main course which was tender and sweet with a nice maple glaze. Also pictured is the fried Halloumi we shared as one of the many appetizers from the table, the shrimp and grits ordered as one of the other main dishes and the Bronx Bomber bourbon based cocktail.

Because @sheetz ❤️ me back 😢. I just got in the mail this lovely (and only) valentine from Sheetz by @sendacakenow. I'm so excited to dig into this pile of cake and chocolate later. Thanks Sheetz and I'm looking forward to working with you again soon!

While in Philly last week, friends brought me to @continental_midtown for an exciting meal of shared plates, innovative main dishes, refreshing cocktails and their children getting "awwwed" by the multiple tables around us. I ordered the braised short rib with a Tex Mex flair of refried beans, salsa and cheese. We shared some brussel sprouts and carrots. My martini was gin based with sake, vermouth and walnut bitters. I'm glad my friends have good taste in food to suggest this place!

I was recently at @overedenpgh again for happy hour and a meal. The Shawarma rice bowl had nice Mediterranean flavors and probably the healthiest thing I ate that week. The cocktails were flavorful and packed a kick. I can't wait for warmer weather to hang out on their rooftop deck.

𝗜 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘀𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘄𝗶𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘀 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗣𝗶𝘁𝘁𝘀𝗯𝘂𝗿𝗴𝗵!
I was in Philly this past week and visited Reading Terminal Market for lunch. I got this fresh smoked and sliced pastrami on marbled rye from @hershelseastsidedeli. I really wish there was a deli in Pittsburgh making their own pastrami and doing a thick slice. I would eat this regularly.
