The Pittsburgh Dish

093 Ken of Point State Fork


Listen Later

We sit down with Ken of Point State Fork to trace the roots of a lovingly curated feed that blends Pittsburgh eats, travel snapshots, and bakes that carry a personal legacy. From a dried sourdough starter gifted by Third Space Bakery to Earl Grey scones with rose glaze, Ken shows how documenting meals can honor a partner’s creative spirit while lifting up local businesses that make a neighborhood feel like home.

We widen the lens with Sarah of Sarah Loves Yinz, who spotlights Rocco’s Slice House hidden inside a Shop ‘n Save in Greensburg. Think high-quality olive oil, house-shredded cheese, and a 72-hour dough ferment that delivers New York-style pies.  

Then Chef Joe Peroney teaches homemade ricotta you’ll actually make. He also announces a Mother’s Day–weekend pasta class at Goat Rodeo Farm, complete with baby goats and a professional photo keepsake—because the best food memories are the ones we get to hold.
