ecently, Bon Appetit named Pittsburgh the
best new food city of 2014. For the past few
years, Pittsburgh has become a hotbed of
trendy new restaurants with some of the best chefs in
the country. Last year, Bar Marco made Bon Appetit’s
Top 50 New Restaurants and in April, The Huffington
Post claimed Prantl’s burnt almond torte as the best
cake America has to offer. New restaurants are popping up in neighborhoods north, east, south and west
of the city, and we want you to get to know the chefs
behind some of the best food our region has to offer.

And just in time for al fresco season, IN Community
is pleased to bring you a new department called,
“IN Good Taste.” Each quarter, we’ll feature a candid
conversation with one of the local dining scene’s most engaging chefs. In addition, you can
go to icmags.com for your area chef ’s favorite recipe.
Summer is also one of the best times to buy a home. Whether you’re looking for a green,
eco-friendly dwelling, a hassle-free, comfort-rich patio style home, a spacious condo along
the river with walking trails or a spectacular single-family abode, you can find what you’re
looking for in some of the new housing developments in our north, east, south and west
communities. Be sure to check out this issue’s Special Real Estate Section.
