9-29-18 / Musa / Pittsburgh, PA (Beechview)
Saturday around noon, I went with my wife and met a friend at a place that I've been wanting to visit for quite a while.

I've been posting pictures and quick reviews over on my Instagram, but it's been too long since I've done a full write-up. On Wednesday, we met some friends for … Continue reading 9-27-17 / Huszar / Pittsburgh, PA (North Side)
3-15-17 / Cenacolo / Irwin, PA
Located only a 20 minute drive away from Pittsburgh, Cenacolo is an authentic, high-quality Italian restaurant focusing primarily on fresh, homemade pastas. I recently met some friends for an incredible meal and while we ordered quite a bit, the leftovers made for a wonderful reminder of the lovely meal we shared. An outstanding find just a … Continue reading 3-15-17 / Cenacolo / Irwin, PA
