Three of our planned trips to Europe were cancelled this summer due to the pandemic and the EU travel ban. Since overseas flights are limited, I still dream of returning to favorite destinations, which are a rich source of inspiration for “Stylish Heath”, and with the phased reopening of varying services across the country a few of us were eager to leave home to do a bit of exploring {safely of course} so, a road trip was planned to visit family in Pittsburg.
The beautiful countryside was a gorgeous change of pace to view as we drove from Northern Virginia to Pitt.

We shopped the “Strip District” a neighborhood that is a fabulously vibrant mix of old-style grocers and gourmet food shops, classic Italian eateries and sandwich places. I so enjoy getting spices, cheeses and sweets that we cannot get at home.
The next evening we were in Wholey’s Market back in the Strip District for fruits, veggies and a selection of seafood to throw on the grill for another night of fine dining with family.

Stylish Heath 
One of my favorite cities to visit , very underrated . Three of the places you named are places that I know , the Strip District, Wholey’s Seafood (my girlfriend used to work in the sales and shipping department ) and of course what visit to Da Burgh would be complete without a trip to Primanti Brothers for one of their famous sammiches! I also love visiting for the sporting arenas, walking on one of the many bridges, taking the funicular or visiting one of the many museums .

My mouth is still watering for Primanti Bros. “sammiches” and the fried pickles from the Hofbräuhaus Brewery! This was the perfect getaway because we could site-see and eat!!!
