I am aware that the newsgroups are not to be used as a means of publicity. And, if this comes across in that manner, please forgive me. I wanted to post to this newsgroup to make those few people in Pittsburgh who had both internet access and a taste for great food aware of a new restaurant in one of the more obscure areas of Pittsburgh. MATA at Stacy J's (421 W. Eighth Avenue, West Homestead) has just recently opened with a New Garde menu befitting of the newer quality restaurants in Pittsburgh like Kaya, Nina, and Casbah. The big difference between those restaurants and us are the price points. Enclosed is a sampling of the current menu. If you would like more information, you can contact us by these means: phone: 464.1860 or 464.9669 fax: 464.1860 email: [email removed] For a complete menu, call us and we will fax one kout to you.
