FoodBurgh in the Post Gazette
Posted by mike | Filed under Community
Last week, I was interviewed by China Millman for an article in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Today, her article appeared in the PG’s Sunday magazine (and, of course, online). The spelling of my name is off—I spell it “Beattie,” not “Beatty”); other than that, it’s a good representation of what I had to say in the interview.
I’m actually somewhat surprised that the entire first half of her article focused on FoodBurgh, but it was a welcome bit of PR for the site. That said, I owe it to everyone else to list a few of my favorite food blogs.
- Bite of the ‘Burgh (w/ Julie, Laura, Sarah, and Mandy)
- Snickie: “Just another foodie blog”
- Burghilicious: “Pittsburgh’s yummiest blog”
- Pittsburgh Needs Eated: “Cooking, Baking, and Eating in Pgh”
It’s worth nothing that China missed “Bite of the Burgh.” That one is probably the most recent addition to the local food blog scene, but the four contributors have been throwing up great content so far. Definitely check them out!
The article also mentioned a few blogs I hadn’t heard of and will definitely be following. My favorite new finds: “Eat the Cookie” and “Brown Eyed Baker.”
We all owe a big thanks to the PG’s China Millman for shining a brief spotlight on the new media contributors to Pittsburgh’s food scene. Thanks China!

Given the lack of attention to details of the PG, and CM’s spotty reporting, it’s a miracle that there weren’t more crimes. In any event, it was good that she featured you. Foodburgh is really the best of the Burgh blogs. Keep up the good work.
