Pittsburgh Magazine Review

For a great article to read about Meat and Potatoes, check out Pittsburgh Magazine. The restaurant was just written about in the December 2011 issue for our modern-day "Pittsburgh Speakeasy and Gastropub." From this article, you can see the picture of our Bone Marrow, Devils on Horseback, Pate, and others. It also shows our "cow diagram."

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! We spent our holiday in NYC this past week, eating and researching. Come back next week for a great post and pictures!

Celebrities at Meat & Potatoes

We have been getting some celebs in Meat & Potatoes, but we normally do not talk a lot about it. We have had Tom Cruise (BTW our favorite Tom Cruise skit is the dance scene from Tropic Thunder) with wife Katie Holmes, and the band Anthrax, along with a lot of other people from Los Angelos, have been visiting in the past few weeks. How great is it to get a few icons in here to enjoy our food? What do you all think we can do to get more?

We went to the Anthrax concert - Don't worry - we have pictures Here.

P.S. - We got Momofuku KO reservations for this Wednesday in NYC. I think we are pretty lucky, don't you??

Loving Life And Limb

Marie and I love to eat. We like to check out new restaurants in Pittsburgh every week, and especially to help support the Pittsburgh Chefs and Restaurants. This past week, we went to Arlecchino, a restaurant by Jonathon Vlasic from Alla Famiglia. The food was extremely good, and we even had this intense pasta course, where the server would put hot pasta and cream into a large cheese wheel and scrape the cheese until it created an Alfredo-like sauce. It was like your favorite Macaroni and Cheese created in front of you. Check out Pictures here.

We also ended up at KAYA this week, one of our favorite Big Burrito restaurants. We ran into our friend Erica there (who is Chef Keith Fuller's girlfriend), and she bought us a bottle of "Life and Limb" (Version 2) a collaboration of Sierra Nevada and Dogfish Head that they re-did a second time for the beer lovers in us. We always have terrific meals at KAYA, so thanks!

As for the rest of our fun-filled week - we ended up going to the Pittsburgh Steeler game on Sunday, thanks to our good friend Bruce Arians. Here are some pictures from our Sunday Funday together with our friends.
