It’s a great time to cook in Pittsburgh—or just to know someone who does and invite yourself over to dinner. The evidence is right here in this guide to the region’s best producers and purveyors of fine foods: 52 different ethnic groceries, bakeries, farmers, speciality stores, places to call when it’s time for takeout and much more. (Eating at home takes many different forms—all of which can be delicious.)

Many of our tastiest destinations are concentrated in the Strip District. From fish to spices, ethnic grocers to that ever-so-famous sandwich, there’s no doubt that Pittsburgh’s culinary solar system orbits around Penn Avenue and Smallman Street, particularly on Saturday mornings. 

But while your epicurean adventure might start in the Strip, do yourself a favor: Don’t let it end there. We found gems on neighborhood corners from Millvale to Monroeville and everywhere in between. Fair warning, though: You might have to cross a river.
