What To Eat (and Avoid) at PNC Park

from City Cast Pittsburgh · host City Cast

Let's be honest, the Pirates aren't always the main draw at PNC Park. Many of us go for the views, the pierogi race, and inventive ballpark food. So what's worth trying this season? Axios Pittsburgh's Ryan Deto and Alexis Johnson sampled the stadium's new offerings. They join host Megan Harris to share their picks for the best (and worst) new fare, from chipped ham fries and a foot-long corn dog to smoked turkey legs and Nutella beignets. Plus, don't miss John Oliver’s take on Pgh newscasters’ (poor) attempts to pronounce “boricua.” Learn more about the sponsors of this Tuesday, May 12th episode: AIDS Free Pittsburgh Fulton Commons City Winery Pittsburgh PGH Cultural Trust Pittsburgh Power & Fitness Festival Become a member of City Cast Pittsburgh at membership.citycast.fm.
