The hardest question for a Pittsburgher to answer is “where’s the best pizza in the city?” With hundreds of different styles of pizza, each with their own unique charm and unique elements, it can be overwhelming to figure out where to go to grab a pie. Laine might not be able to answer that question,but with each delicious pic of a local slice (and each cheese pull! #yum) you can guarantee you’ll be one step closer.
