we went to slate bistro while visiting some friends in pittsburgh - what a great meal! every appetizer, salad, entree, and dessert was outstanding! the fried calamari (steak, not the normal rings and baby squids) was amongst the best i've ever had, as were the scallops (though being that they change their menu very frequently, i can't say they'll be there when you go). and the DESSERTS!!! the key lime cheese cake and the nutella mouse cake were AMAZING! add this place to the list of things i miss about this great city!
