Welcome to Pittsburgh! What do you want to do first? Not sure yet? Well what about plans for tomorrow?
…Well you still have time to decide… Where are you staying? You haven't booked a hotel yet?!?!
The soup in Pittsburgh is not to be missed. Here are a few of our favorites.
As the air gets colder in the Burgh', nothing tastes better than a hearty bowl of homemade soup – and Pittsburgh has lots of places to get your soup on.
Soups to try: Tom Yum - spicy and sour lemongrass soup with spinach and mushrooms and Tom Kha - creamy coconut milk, mushroom, cabbage, carrot and spinach. Another delicious dish is the glass noodle soup with napa cabbage in a clear broth.
Soups to try: Tofu Soup – a fresh tofu and napa in vegetable clear soup. Also try the Thai Style Chicken Noodle, and the Spicy Dill Soup with Beef (Om Nue) which is beef soup with herbs and spices topped with dill.
Soups to try: Again, you can't go wrong at Patti's. Try their Stuffed Pepper, Butternut Soup with Italian Sausage, Italian Beef & Pepperoni Soup. Head to their calendar to check out the amazing choices!
Soup to try: Italian Wedding Soup. Big Jim's in Greenfield is a hidden gem with big flavor. They are known for their wedding soup, and it's recommended to order the large portion.
Soups to try: Mung Bean Noodle or Saigon soups. A no-frills favorite where you really can't go wrong with anything. Be sure to load them up with chili and hoisin sauce, and get an order of the fresh spring rolls while you’re there!
Bonus "soup": Shrimp with Loofah Soup Dumplings. Try your soup a new way by eating it inside a handmade steamed dumpling! The soup dumplings at Everyday Noodles are a specialty and not to be missed.
There are plenty of souper places in and around Pittsburgh to warm you up on a cold day. Share with us your favorite spots on social media using #LovePGH. Enjoy!
