To be fair, we intended to have Total Indian Culture Night by hitting Taj Mahal in the North Hills and then a Bollywood flick at the cinemaplexithon down [...]
This is just a quick message to say Happy Gobbler Day! It seems fitting that TastyBurgher post a special message about Thanksgiving, because it is on this holiday that we stuff our faces with good home cookin’ just for the sake of the food. We get all of our most favorite autumn treats and whip [...]
Udipi Café 4141 Old William Penn Hwy Monroeville, 15146 412-373-5581 Sun-M, W-Th: 11:30-9:30; F-Sat: 11:30-10 (closed Tu) I know I have said this a zillion times, and you are probably getting sick of it, but we are blessed, blessed I tell you! to have so many darned Indian restaurants here. In fact, Pittsburgh is more [...]
Crazy Mocha For locations and hours, check: http://crazymocha.com/ Ahhh….to be a dancing goat! Spending idyllic hours frolicking in the meadows, high on caffeine while their shepherd drifts away in an unaware sleep. Nibbling on little buzzing berries all the livelong day, with their freaky horizontal pupils. Doing continuous backflips over fences, with their backward facing [...]

Umi 5849 Ellsworth Ave Shadyside, 15232 412-362-6198 Tu-Th: 5-9:30; F-Sat: 5-10:30 In honor of our recent trip to Italy (literally, we just stepped off the plane yesterday), I’d like to review…..a sushi place? What? What’s wrong with me? I just ate my way through fifteen days of incredible Italian food and I come home to [...]
Korea Garden 414 Semple Street Oakland, 15213 412-681-6460 M-Sat: 11-10 In legend it is said there exists a hole-in-the-wall restaurant deep in the netherworld of South Oakland on the insidious Semple Street. This restaurant serves Korean food, but not just any – the BEST. It has been passed down that native Koreans proclaim it to [...]
Eat’N Park Everywhere and all the time. Check: http://www.eatnpark.com/index.asp So today, worlds collided: my coworker Rich W. discovered that I write TastyBurgher, and I discovered that he reads it. Hurrah! I love to meet my TastyReaders! I asked him for all kinds of feedback, and he wondered why, with all the other Pittsburgh-centric reviews, had [...]
Leena’s Food “World’s Best Falafel” 121 Oakland Ave Oakland, 15213 412-682-1919 M-F: 10-10; Sat 10-? (will close early if it’s slow) Let me ask you: How often is there truth in advertising? Especially when the advertisement is so in your face? I mean, Gullifty’s doesn’t really have the best desserts, Thighmasters don’t really shape your [...]
Mexico City 111 Smithfield Street Downtown, 15222 412-391-2591 M-F: 11-8pm; Sat: 11-4pm Just as I was prepping to write about Taco Loco — along comes Mexico City. You’ve all heard me complain about the abysmal state of affairs in regards to the availability of tasty Mexican food in Pittsburgh. It is no surprise to me [...]
