Steelers-Themed KFCs, Pittsburgh Tea Shops, and a New Women's Sports Bar
If you need a pick-me-up on a dreary and windy day, the solution could be a visit to one of Pittsburgh’s tea shops. The choices can be overwhelming when you’re looking at a long list, but luckily, we found a local seller with a quiz to match you to your perfect brew. Plus, we’ve got plenty of new restaurants opening up all around town — and one fried chicken chain bringing the Steelers abroad.
We’re doing a survey to learn more about our listeners. We’d be grateful if you took the survey at citycast.fm/survey—it’s only 7 minutes long. You’ll be doing us a big favor. Plus, anyone who takes the survey will be eligible to win a $250 Visa gift card–and City Cast City swag.
