The growth of the Pittsburgh restaurant and bar scene has flourished over the last couple of years and this book really shows it. Shannon made it so easy to find what you're looking for whether it be where to eat in which neighborhood or icons that show if the place is known for brunch, IG-worthy dishes or special occasions. I love seeing some of my favorite traditional spots (looking at you Pbros & Pamela's) alongside some of the non-traditional Pittsburgh joints like Gaucho and the Federal and Smallman Galley. P.S. Don't read this book hungry!
