History
LocalFoodService.com is the company who brings the City of Pittsburgh Local Restaurant Week!
In March 2009, over 150 Buffalo area operators participated and launched the successful inaugural Local Restaurant Week. A month later, in April 2009, over 75 restaurants in Rochester participated in that area's first Local Restaurant Week. The two cities combined for an event in September 2009 leading to yet another success! In March 2010, 175 Buffalo and Rochester restaurants participated, making the Western New York Local Restaurant Week one of the largest in the country! Check out the press! Because of Western New York's successes of Local Restaurant Week, LocalFoodService.com (the company who brings the City of Pittsburgh Local Restaurant Week) decided it was time to bring the week to Pittsburgh!  Celebrating Independent Operators Across PITTSBURGHCelebrating Independent Operators Across Pittsburgh! Food is Culture. A survivor of wrenching economic change and strategically transformed, the Pittsburgh region has built on its historic strengths in manufacturing, finance, business services and energy to create a dynamic, balanced economy that's outperforming benchmark cities. At the same time, its investments in natural and cultural assets to create an exceptional quality of life are revealing Pittsburgh as a region with a rich past and a city of the future. Because of Pittsburgh's history and future we need to come together now! The locally owned independent operator is the backbone of our community, and provides an essential element to the quality of life here. Currently there are more then 107,000 residents who work in the Food Service Industry. To help Pittsburgh to continue to grow we need to keep the money in our city. Money that is spent with independent operators stays in our community. It is a reinvestment that sustains our identity and we are grateful for your patronage.
