New Girl in Town: What's New in Pittsburgh?
By Elaine Labalm

Far from heralding the winter of my discontent, this fall has ushered in a season of merriment thanks to a number of new openings in Pittsburgh. How can things be anything but bliss when I have finally found affordable, delectable Asian cuisine?

At Plum Pan Asian Kitchen in East Liberty, colorful Chinese lanterns are suspended from a way-up-there ceiling and a white hi-backed leather banquette hugs a swath of room and plays off chocolate brown everything. I imagine Nancy Sinatra and her go-go boots walking in the door at any moment. My tour of Asia starts with Tasmanian Salmon Tataki, a hunk of glistening salmon paired with burrata cheese and tomatoes. Best of all is the duck dipping sauce served alongside, a pinkish-orange goo that positively sparkles. I decide to order the Marilyn Mon Roll on my next visit and continue on to General Tso's chicken, which is utterly fresh and also sparkly (must be the lighting). A Malaysian yellow curry brings more freshness and is composed of countless chunky vegetables and the only thing missing is a bit more heat on everything I eat. Cool perfection comes in the way of Plum's ice cream sundaes, each more inventive than the next (yes, I do try all three).
