Savoring the Season
I love summer — and not just because my birthday is June 21, the first official day of the season! The luxurious, extended hours of sunshine invite us to slow down our pace a little bit and really savor every moment. Whether these moments are crossing a new restaurant off your culinary bucket list or taking advantage of warm summer nights with friends or family, now is the time to make some memories. When digging in to a dish for the first time, it’s almost second nature to want to capture the experience with a photo to throw on social media later. That’s why we’ve started a new section in the magazine called #FoodGrams, showcasing the most Instagram-worthy eats in the city. See what we’re sampling this summer on page 24. If you’re looking to wind down your sunny days with a night cap, we suggest pouring something with a pop of flavor — or the popping sensation of a bubbly beverage! Sip on a sparkling spritzer, like one of the drinks featured on page 26. Then, add the recipes to your collection, as we know you’ll want to serve these again at your next picnic or al fresco dinner party. For something a little smoother, try the Smokey Robinson Cabernet Sauvignon or Smokey Robinson Riesling. Made by Enginehouse 25 Wines in direct collaboration with the singer, the vinos boast rich flavors that pair well with good conversations. We chatted with Smokey himself — over a glass of the Smokey Robinson Cab, of course! — about his new endeavor into the world of wines. Read all about it on page 22, and get ready to cruise on over to the Lawrenceville locale to pick up a bottle for yourself.

5. Heat the rice wine vinegar, sugar, kosher salt, mustard seeds, and shallots in a saucepan to a simmer to dissolve. Let cool until just warm. 6. Pour the vinegar mixture over the honeydew, and marinate for 2 hours. 7. To serve, place the pork belly on the plate. Pour the reduced glaze on top until the bottom of the dish is covered. Place the pickled honeydew on top. Garnish with minced, crystallized ginger and Maldon sea salt. Add a few small dollops of mustard seeds in the glaze.

STEVE LANZILOTTI BY MATTHEW HACKE PHOTOGRAPHS BY MICHAEL FORNATARO
S
teve Lanzilotti’s love of cooking and love of tattoos started at a young age. “As a real little kid, I was always in the kitchen with my grandparents. And as soon as I turned 18, I was at the tattoo shop,” he says with a laugh. The Pittsburgh native’s German, Italian, and Polish roots meant that growing up, he was always trying out new dishes in the kitchen, as he fondly recalls. “My great-grandmother on my mom’s side — the German-Polish side — was the baker. You went over to her house and she always had five different pies and two different cakes freshly made. It was awesome,” he says. “My dad’s side of the family — the Italian side — had Sunday dinner every week. So, I remember being involved with food and appreciating it at that age.” Even though Lanzilotti was always in the kitchen and drawn to food, it wasn’t always a focus. When he was considering his future after graduation, though, his interest in cooking resurfaced. “I tried going to college, but it didn’t work out,” he says. “So then, I turned back to cooking and said, ‘Let’s give it a go.’ I went to culinary school and have been involved ever since.”
18
Over 15 years later, Lanzilotti is now the executive chef at the newly opened Talia Cucina & Rosticceria in Downtown. While he has yet to take a break from cooking, Lanzilotti has taken a ten-year hiatus from getting tattoos done. “I started getting tattoos at 18 and I was finished with my seventh tattoo [my most recent one] by 22. I got everything done in a four-year span,” he says. “I haven’t gotten another tattoo in about ten years — for no specific reason. I think it was because I didn’t want to start getting a bunch of things that I was going to regret later on and had no meaning behind them.” Now, he’s ready to get back to it and is currently planning his next piece of body art. But, like many aspects of his life and career, he wants to take his time to plan it out thoroughly. “I do want to get more tattoos, but it would just be a matter of time, money, and meaning.”

NUMBER OF TATTOOS: Seven
FIRST TATTOO: The first tattoo I got was a star. I was 18. I was just a young kid who wanted something and stars were in at the time, so that’s what I got. It wasn’t anything sentimental.
NEXT TATTOO: I’ve been thinking about getting a spoon tattoo because I always carry a spoon with me in the front pocket of my shirt. I’ve had one spoon that I’ve had for the last 12 years. It’s not lucky, per se, I just picked it up one day. I’m always either tasting things or cooking things with the spoon — which I make sure to clean [laughs]! There have even been times I’ve had to use the other end of the spoon as a screwdriver! I would like to finish up my left arm, so my next tattoo would be there. I want to even out the tattoos on my right arm with my left arm.
FAVORITE TATTOO ARTIST: I go to Bob at Accents Ink in Castle Shannon. He did my first tattoo when I was 18 and has done the six others, too. He actually went to high school with my aunt. He was a business guy — a big banker — who said this isn’t for me and now he’s covered, head to toe, in tattoos and has his own shop.
TATTOO REGRETS: The Chinese symbols on my left arm. There were meanings behind them when I got them, but you never know if they’re the true meanings when you get them done in a tattoo shop [laughs]. It could mean something completely different. They were motivational words at the time that I liked. “After my star tattoo, I got a koi fish and dragon tattoo, followed by the Italian flag outlined in a star-like oval. I got those in my early 20s. I also have two Chinese symbols,” says Lanzilotti. “They always say — and I know it’s cliche — but once you get one, you can’t stop.”
Drawn to Asian-inspired art and the stories and myths they represent, Lanzilotti added to his dragon and koi fish tattoos to create a bigger scene. By blending the two with images of water and adding lotus flowers, sky scenes, and a samurai mask, the theme was complete. “For being as old as these tattoos are, the colors have stayed well-preserved,” Lanzilotti says. “Sometimes tattoos of this size and color fade, but they have aged well, which I’m pretty happy about.” EDIBLEALLEGHENY.COM • edible ALLEGHENY

WE’RE MIXING UP TWO OF OUR FAVORITE THINGS — RAMEN AND ROCK MUSIC! — ON JUNE 28! BY RACHEL JONES PHOTOGRAPH BY MICHAEL FORNATARO
O
f the many things we love about ramen, I think the one that tops the list is its customizability. The Asian delicacy, which is trending in the food world and in our weekly menus, always starts with a flavorful broth and a nest of noodles. Now comes the fun part. The addition of toppings is what really makes each style of ramen unique. Popular components include protein (pork, fish, chicken, duck), vegetables (scallions, bean sprouts, corn), sauces and spices (soy, miso, curry paste), and even wild card toppings (eggs, tofu skin, seaweed). The result is as delicious as it is engaging, soothing the soul as it appeals to the palate. And the subtle differences in the varieties of ramen served up across the city is truly fascinating. As a way to embrace each one’s individuality and broaden our ramen horizons, we decided to host our first-ever Rock ’N Ramen event! Held June 28 at Spirit in Lawrenceville, the evening invites chefs from Pittsburgh’s top ramen restaurants — including Tan Izakaya, Restaurant Hana, and Soba — to serve up samples of ramen and spark conversations about the interactive eat. And for the “rock” aspect of this Rock ’N Ramen event? We’ve got local musicians taking the stage and adding an extra element to the festivities. We’ll see you there!

“life surprise” is an exciting experience that pops up unexpectedly — like the Wednesday afternoon Edible Allegheny Creative Director Jason Solak, Edible Allegheny Editorial Intern Olivia Kappler, and I spent sipping wine with Smokey Robinson. But it wasn’t any old pour in our glasses. Duane Rieder, owner of Enginehouse 25 Wines, worked with the singer to create a Smokey Robinson Cabernet Sauvignon and a Smokey Robinson Riesling. “I’m really excited about it because it’s a different thing for me. It’s a ‘life surprise’ for me,” Smokey says. “I never thought I’d be involved with something that dealt with alcohol or anything like that. Or that I would find wine that I like [laughs]. But this one I like.” “It’s funny,” Duane continues. “[Smokey] said that he’s had Cabernet all over the world, he’s had Cabernet with the Queen of England. And he didn’t care for it. ‘But I like this one,’ [Smokey] says to me.” And what’s not to like? A glass of Smokey Robinson Cabernet Sauvignon hits all of the right notes. It greets you with a strong, spicy bouquet, backed by a flavor as smooth as the vocals in his hit song, “Cruisin’,” without the expected bite of a drier red wine. Made with 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon grapes that are vinted and blended by Enginehouse 25 Wines, the unfiltered wine spends most of its time in oak barrels, giving it a “jammy” taste. The final product is the surprising result of a meeting between Smokey and Duane, facilitated by Bob Buzzelli, who wanted the part-time Pittsburgher to visit Enginehouse 25 Wines and meet the man behind its popular pours. Most of Duane’s creations feature famous Pittsburgh figures — from Troy Polamalu to Pascal Dupuis to Franco Harris — and with Smokey’s wife, Frances, hailing from the Pittsburgh area and the couple sharing a home outside of the city, the collaboration made perfect sense. Of course, the fact that the Roberto Clemente Museum is also housed in the Lawrenceville locale was a selling point, too. “I am a huge Roberto Clemente fan, so this was all tied in,” says Smokey. “That’s how I met Duane.” On the day they met, something sparked. “It was the Clemente magic,” Duane concludes. “We were upstairs — me, Smokey, and his wife — and we were going to do a toast. We were originally going to do a white wine, but I said, ‘Hey, we have the red out. Let’s do a toast with it to Roberto Clemente and Smokey Robinson.’ And that’s when [Smokey] said, ‘Wait, woah, what is this?’”
For ten months, Smokey Robinson worked with Duane Rieder and Rob Larson of Enginehouse 25 Wines, designing labels that would appeal to customers and represent the singer’s fun personality. The winning options are below!
For ten months, the pair worked together on everything from designing the labels — some featuring photos of Smokey taken by Duane, others showcasing snapshots from earlier in his career — and finding the right flavor profile. “When I tasted what I liked, that was it,” Smokey says with a laugh. “If I’m going to endorse it and my name’s going to be on it, I want to be sure I like it.” The singing sensation also endorsed the product in person at the Pittsburgh Wine Festival, the Philadelphia Wine Festival, and the Harrisburg Wine Festival during a whirlwind weekend in May, offering samples and nearly 1,000 bottles for purchase. “I want everyone to get a chance to taste it, at least, and make their own opinion,” Smokey says. Based on the feedback at the festivals, the next step will be getting the bottles on the shelves. For now, at least, wine and music lovers alike can pick up a bottle — or two — at Enginehouse 25 Wines, where the wine is produced, bottled, labeled, and wax-sealed by hand. “It’s a painstaking process,” Duane says. “But we think that the taste sells itself.” No surprise there.

Entrepreneur Jordan Robarge is serving up delicious chili and a unique business concept with his new food trailer, Revival Chili BY MATTHEW HACKE PHOTOGRAPHS BY MICHAEL FORNATARO
W
hen Jordan Robarge thinks of chili, the words “family” and “community” immediately come to mind. “Growing up, my family would make chili and we always ended up making way more than we needed. So, we’d take it to a church event or give it to a family member with a newborn — something along those lines,” he says. The 24-year-old budding entrepreneur’s particular interest in the entree was heightened as he continued his undergraduate studies at the University of Virginia. “I joined a fraternity —Theta Delta Chi — and we’d do a huge chili event every single year,” Robarge explains. “That event was what always brought all of the fraternity brothers together. We’d be prepping and cooking chili all day the day before the event and we’d get up early the next day for the event to serve it.” If you had asked Robarge four years ago if he would eventually turn his love of chili into a full-time career and business, he would have responded no. The systems engineering major from Northern Virginia was destined —like many in his major in school— to work for a big firm in D.C. Life threw him a curveball freshman year of college when he was arrested and convicted of underage drinking. “That conviction — that mistake I made when I was 19 — is on my record forever,” he says. Robarge didn’t begin to see the direct impact and repercussions of this conviction until senior year, when he began applying for jobs. “When I was graduating, I was interviewing with a lot of government consulting firms and I would get far into the process. Then, I would go to my final interview and afterward the company would be like, ‘OK, you’ll hear from us in a couple of days.’ And a few days later, I would always get a call saying that they wouldn’t be able to hire me,” he says. While companies wouldn’t always provide answers as to why they hadn’t chosen to hire Robarge, some would later disclose that they had run a criminal background check. “A lot of times, these companies would say, ‘We ran a background check and we can’t hire you.’ It was pretty disheartening, especially seeing all of my classmates getting well-paying jobs,” Robarge continues. Instead of dwelling on a past he couldn’t change, Robarge looked forward to the future. “I applied my senior year of college to Venture for America, a
highly selective program that works as an entrepreneurial incubator and places fellows in smaller cities across America looking to revitalize and grow,” he explains. Venture for America led Robarge to Pittsburgh, which brought him to his first position here, working for Thrill Mill — the organization that puts on the annual Thrival Music Festival in Braddock. “I graduated from undergrad in May 2015, and August 2015 was when I officially moved to Pittsburgh. The Thrival Music Festival occurred a month later in September. So, from August 2015 through June 2016 I was with Thrill Mill,” says Robarge. “It was then that I parted ways with Thrill Mill and officially started my current business: Revival Chili.” Shortly after, Robarge developed a business plan for a start-up that would not only encompass making and selling chili, but also help others who face similar circumstances as himself when applying for jobs with charges on their background. “When I started Revival Chili, I had already met my partner organization, Zero Six Eight, through working with Thrival,” he says. “Zero Six Eight is an incubator for ex-convicts, for companies who want to hire ex-convicts, or for re-entering citizens that would like to start their own business. Zero Six Eight essentially helps these ex-convicts get their feet off of the ground.” After working with Zero Six Eight through the hiring process for his new business, Robarge then sought out funding to get his idea up and running. “We started this whole process the summer of 2016, but faced some roadblocks with funding and obtaining a food trailer.” Robarge soon realized that he needed to find other sources of funding and started talking to different lending sources, such as Bridgeway Capital. “Serendipitously, I found out that Venture for America hosts a crowdfunding competition of sorts through their fellows and their founding companies during the month of March.” He put conversations with lending sources on hold and turned his focus toward the competition. The waiting proved to be fruitful for Robarge and Revival Chili. “During the crowdfunding competition, we raised $14,500 and then had another $14,500 outside of it that was promised from lenders, for a combined grand total, after fees, of around $28,000,” Robarge says

excitedly. As luck would have it, during the last week of the competition, Robarge also found a food trailer in North Carolina. “I was searching on Ebay and found an awesome trailer that was exactly what I wanted,” he says. “The trailer is home-built and the exterior looks like it’s a tiny home. It’s one of a kind.” Since acquiring the trailer and finishing the buildout, Robarge has shifted his focus to his chili menu and employees. “Initially with Revival Chili, we were catering events and going to farmer’s markets where we would have a tent or a table. But now with the food trailer, that is all
32
going to change,” he says. Using the original recipe from his fraternity, with significant amounts of modifications, Robarge’s Revival Chili is sold and prepared in a customized way, similar to that of Chipotle Mexican Grill. “A customer chooses their chili, their base, and up to three additional toppings,” he says. Currently, Robarge has one full-time worker and three part-time workers, but is planning on adding more full-time employees now that the food trailer is up and running. Robarge truly has come full circle, as his passion for chili and the attachment of community and family it has for

HOW IT WORKS Building your ideal bowl at Revival Chili is as easy as 1, 2, 3! 1. CHOOSE YOUR BASE: Basmati Rice Cornbread Chips Fries More Chili!
2. CHOOSE YOUR CHILI: Classic Beef — As Revival Chili’s signature chili, you can never go wrong with this one. All the right flavors blend together from the seven different spices used. Chili Con Pollo (Spicy Chicken) — One bite of this chili is an instantaneous show-stopper. With a sweet and savory start and spicy finish, you’ll never have to eat anything else again.
The Godfather (Spicy Beef and Pork) — After slow cooking for six hours, the oh-so-good spiciness seeps into every ounce of the chili. The Mindful Eater (Veggie/Vegan) — You’ll never go wrong with Revival’s famous three-bean chili. Who needs meat with a chili this flavorful, robust, and healthy?
3. CHOOSE YOUR TOPPINGS (UP TO 3): him are finally coming to life. “The premise of my business and my name is that we’re trying to revive lives,” he says. “We’re reviving people’s lives by serving them good and healthy food, but more specifically with our employees, we are giving them a second chance and getting them back on their feet after being previously incarcerated. I just want to see these guys succeed because they are awesome individuals. It’s been a lot of fun, to say the least, and I’m just excited to see where Revival Chili takes me and my employees.” Revival Chili, revivalchili.com

O
ne of the summer’s tastiest treats — corn — is finally in season! Who hasn’t overindulged in a few too many butter-smothered cobs during a backyard barbecue? To mix it up a little and give your palate a change of pace, why not try out a Mexican street corn? Part spicy, part sweet, and always grilled to perfection, this traditional cuisine will transport you from your humdrum, everyday life to the vibrant streets of Mexico. The editors here at Edible Allegheny took a vote and the results were unanimous: if you want to indulge in some real deal street corn, you have to check it out at täkō, the Downtown Mexican-Asian fusion dining experience. “Right now, Mexican Cuisine as a whole has become very popular, and at the same time, street foods have become very popular,” says Dave Racicot, täkō’s chef de cuisine. “I think that’s kind of just a natural thing for Mexican street foods to be popular in the country right now.” Although täkō is more well-known for its eponymous taco, featuring grilled octopus — “tako” is octopus in Japanese! — harissa aioli, and a blend of herbs and pickled veggies, the restaurant’s take on Mexican street corn really takes it up a notch.
64
Racicot and his team start by roasting whole ears of corn in the oven for about 30 minutes. From there, the husks are peeled back, all of the silk is removed, and the cobs spend a little time on the grill to get a kiss of caramelization. With just enough char for a smoky flavor, the corn is tossed in oregano butter — a mix of fresh oregano, butter, garlic, and shallots — and slathered in Sriracha mayonnaise. “[The oregano butter and Sriracha mayonnaise] are two things that are a little bit different,” Racicot says. The sauces are to die for, adding a little kick that sets täkō’s street corn apart from others. And with a generous coating of cotija cheese, a sprinkle of pepper flakes, and a squeeze of lime for extra acidity, the street corn is ready to be enjoyed. With just one bite of the crunchy, yet creamy, dish, and you’ll see why we’re hooked. And if you come to täkō for the street corn, you'll want to stay for the large tequila selection and spirited atmosphere. We’ll see you there! täkō, 214 6th St., Downtown, 412.471.8256. takopgh.com.
