Pittsburgh is at its best when explored through its food.

You’ll stroll through the central market among produce and spice stalls, discover where locals buy bread, cheese, and sweets, and hear about the foods and drinks that make Pittsburgh unique. Along the way, your guide will share culinary history and the most tempting local specialties you should try. Delicious and authentic, this is Pittsburgh through a culinary lens.
