Pittsburgh Excursion: Waffles Incaffeinated

Me and my fiance love travel. And since we only live a short three hour drive to Pittsburgh, we decided to take a minication there over a weekend. I had also heard Pittsburgh is a foodie's dream come true. And I was not disappointed. Our first stop was Waffles Incaffeinated. And it was delicious.

When we arrived we had decided we wanted to try something both sweet and savory. We ended up waiting in line here for about 30 minutes. It was worth the wait. My choice was the "Funky Monkey"

So now you're probably wondering what all this beautiful waffle incorporates. The inside of the waffle was filled with chocolate chips, and it also has a peanut butter chiffon on top (the best thing like ever)..(no, seriously), and then it was also topped with bananas, powdered sugar, and a light chocolate drizzle. The BEST waffle I have ever had.

Next in line, our savory pick. We chose the Southern waffle. This waffle was filled with a spicy chorizo sausage and cheddar cheese. Upon the top was fresh pico, jalapeño, and we decided to go with the poached eggs. (You get to decide which kind of eggs you would like, typically they use fried) Along the side they placed a small dollop of sour cream. It was beautifully constructed.

And last, but DEFINITELY not least, we had decided to order a side of potatoes. These were soooo flavorful. They did not need salt nor ketchup. All in all this place was very good. And I was really impressed. We also did not use the syrup that was brought out to us, the waffles were too good! I do believe they make their own syrup as well!

Roosters, it's an Ohio thing!

We are so proud to be from Ohio for so many reasons, and Roosters being one of them! Roosters is a restaurant that only 'Ohioans' or Ohio visitors know about. It's not a five star fancy schmansy restaurant, just a tasty and fun place to eat at on a weekend or after a long days work. The famous slogan really speaks for itself "A fun, casual, joint", but it doesn't happen to mention the delicious food they have available! We are regular Rooster customers, we usually go a couple of times a month. We usually stick with our favorites from the menu, but you really can't go wrong with anything they have to offer. Whether it's the loaded nachos, a burger, or their tender boneless wings dipped in your choice of TOP OF THE LINE wing sauce, you wont be disappointed. Most of the time we go with the boneless wings drenched in tangy sweet Thai chili sauce. The quality of the meat is unbeatable, but the big kicker for us is the sauce. The sweet...

Amorino has the Gelato

Oh gelato, you make me smile, especially in the form of a beautiful rose. Yes, you read that correctly, gelato in the shape of a rose. You can find this so called rose shaped gelato at Amarino in Chicago. After hearing about this place, I HAD to add it to our itinerary while we were back in the Windy City. Amarino is downtown, and we didn’t have that much trouble finding parking. We went later in the afternoon; I would say around 5 p.m. and found Amarino to be especially empty. When you enter the double sliding doors (cool touch) you will be right in front of their gelato selections. They have a wide selection. We came for the rose, but you are able to get a simple bowl instead as well. When finally deciding what flavors we wanted we ended up with Pistachio, cookie butter, and chocolate. The flavors went very well together. We watched in awe as the server sculpted a beautiful rose master piece in front of us. It turned out so ...

Picklesburgh!

Pittsburgh, PA is not only a fun city to visit, but they have one of most unique traditions of many, the Picklesburgh pickle festival!! We are huge fans of pickles, and we had a blast on previous travels to Pittsburgh, so this event was perfect for us! In this particular post we are going to be telling you about all of our delicious encounters of Picklesburgh. Picklesburgh has everything pickles! Name it and most likely they have it. Anything from pickle brine chicken, pickle soda, to even pickle moonshine, and pickle cupcakes. We were lucky enough to try a good handful of these pickled creations. When we first arrived in Pittsburgh we kept our eyes peeled for the giant pickle floating in the sky! It was surely there floating above all of the delicious pickle stands and happy festival goers. It had a very fun feel being there because of the fact that it is all located on the famous Roberto Clement Bridge. Our first goal when we arrived was getting a one of a kind selfie with t...
