Well, that about wraps up 2011. Throughout the year, our staff painstakingly logged countless hours scouring the entire Pittsburgh area for the best of the best for you, our loyal reader. We ate until our belts buckled, drank until our livers drowned and played almost as many rounds of golf as the President in search of Pittsburgh’s best places to indulge in testosterone-induced glory. Below is our esteemed list of 2011 awardees. They may keep you from achieving your new year’s resolution, but at least you will cheat it in style.
