Pittsburgh’s Farm-to-Table Food Renaissance
Two years ago Zagat declared Pittsburgh the best food city in America, an accolade earned by a wave of young chefs boldly reinventing the city’s culinary scene with creative takes on local, farm-to-table fare. Bethany Zozula, the executive chef of the Ace Hotel’s Whitfield, is a rising star among them, making the Ace the perfect spot from which to explore the city’s food movement.
Located in a century-old YMCA, Pittsburgh’s Ace is also an exemplar of adaptive reuse; we’ll dine in the hotel’s vintage gymnasium with ping pong and corn hole at our disposal. Zozula has planned a family-style, three-course meal (menu below) featuring both a vegetarian dish and trout that was farm-raised in circulating cold water at the family-owned Laurel Hill Trout Farm. The Whitfield Sommelier, Joslynne McDonough, will walk us through a tasting of a sustainable wine, and the pastry chef, Casey Renee, has concocted some ingenious adaptive reuse of her own for dessert. The $40 cost includes tax and tip (but not drinks). 
MENU:
The meal is served family style with a portion of all selections for every guest
Mixed Green Salad with mesclun greens, cucumber, radish, and house lemon viniagrette
Smoked Trout (sourced locally from the Laurel Hill Trout Farm) with tallow potatoes, lemon salsa, and rouille.
Rice cakes with grilled escarolle, roasted squash, chimichuri, and lentil viniagrette
Dessert: Chocolate cashew cakes scrap truffles
