00:00You don't have to venture far from the city to enjoy a farm to fork adventure.

00:05I'm in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and I'm going to show you some of the best spots in the region.

00:09We start with Goat Rodeo Farm, where they make some of the best cheese and some award-winning

00:14lines too. The goats are just lovely, but would you look at this view? This is only 20 minutes

00:20away from Pittsburgh downtown, by the way. And as another foodie spot awaits, head to Palm Palm,

00:26where you can enjoy a classic American-style brunch. If, like me, you need a drink or two to digest,

00:32head to Jackworth Ginger Beer for some alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages,

00:36or go to Scratch & Co, one of my personal favourites, where cocktails are seasonal.

00:41But the one unmissable spot in your farm-to-fork quest should be High Hold. This castle, restaurant,

00:47and fairytale land has been going strong since the 1930s, and the chef really takes good care of you,

00:54with a lovely chef's table dinner set in this wonderful oasis. Continue your exploration of

01:01Pittsburgh by heading to the Strip District, where you will find cosy cafes, sandwich shops,

01:06and everything in between. My personal recommendation is to join the Berg Bites & Bits tour,

01:12where a super passionate local guide will take you to all the best spots. Berg Bites & tours also go to

01:18other neighbourhoods, so go and check out their page. And after you're done with all that eating,

01:23you may want to head to the Duquesne Incline, a wonderful viewpoint where you can see downtown

01:29and Point State Park. Finally, head downtown to learn more about the history of food in this region,

01:34by going to the Heinz History Centre, and then hopping to the Andy Warhol Museum. You will see a few

01:39familiar cans, and you even get to do your own screen printing. If that looks like a lot of fun,

01:45it's because it is.
