I’ve been hearing for ages that The Ruck in Troy [104 3rd St, Troy, NY 12180] has the regions best wings, and while their wings are great, they’ve also got a whole lot more awesome to offer! Street parking was quiet on a Sunday afternoon, we tipped our hats to […]

The term greasy spoon must have been coined after visiting Dan’s Place Two in Albany [494 Washington Ave, Albany, NY 12203 ]. Blink and you might miss it driving up Washington Ave through the Student Ghetto; a tiny little diner nestled between the areas typical slums. Don’t shy away, come in […]
Just an hour outside of Albany lays the quaint little Millerton, NY right on the border of Connecticut. Millerton is full of kitsch and well worth a visit, especially if you enjoy tea. Our first stop in the town found us in the Harney and Sons [13 Main St, Millerton, […]
Sage Bistro [2050 Western Ave, Suite 108 Guilderland, NY 12084] in Guilderland was such a surprise! Located in a strip mall the storefront doesn’t look like much, but you will walk into a classy setting and get some pretty delicious food. We popped in with no reservations early on a […]
Saratoga’s Restaurant Week stretches though this weekend (it ends March 29th), so I took this opportunity to visit a fantastic restaurant, and you should too! The Wishing Well in Gansevoort [745 Saratoga Rd, Gansevoort, NY] has a classy atmosphere and seriously delicious food. Just as we were seated and observing […]
On a chilly Sunday afternoon there was no lovelier place than a sunny window seat looking out at the patio in the Saratoga Winery [462 Route 29 Saratoga Springs, NY 12866] dreaming of warmer days. In this spacious winery everything around us was wooden from the floors to the tables to […]
My Mom had been raving about a middle eastern joint called Hash O’Nash (441 Mamaroneck Ave Mamaroneck, NY 10543), so last time I was in Westchester I had to give it a try. On the main drag of Mamaroneck very close to the train station was the restaurant. We came […]
Tucson is centrally located within a few hours of many interesting cities. To choose between Bisbee, Nogales, and Phoenix was difficult, but I am happy with the outcome and enjoyed my time in Arizona’s capital city. The journey took us about an hour and a half back through that beautiful […]
I am not a vegan, but if I could eat at this restaurant everyday I would become one! Tucson’s Tasteful Kitchen [722 N. Stone Ave., Tucson, parking lot] has amazing gourmet vegan and vegetarian cuisine; no carnivore could deny the deliciousness whipped up here. The atmosphere is intimate and hip; […]
What a special gem! Little Café Poca Cosa is nestled right on a main road in Tucson [151 N Stone Ave Tucson, Arizona, metered street parking available], yet the restaurant it feels as though it is a world of its own. We chose to sit outside on the small patio […]
By car it takes just under six hours to make the trip from San Diego to Tucson. Six hours is quite a chunk of time, especially to spend driving on a relatively short vacation. Some people said that the trip would be boring, and asked ‘why would you want to […]
La Jolla (la hoy-ya) is indeed as they say the jewel of San Diego, nothing but wonderful things experienced here! Our first look into the neighborhood was through a free little park named Mt. Soledad [6905 La Jolla Scenic Dr S La Jolla], a national veterans memorial. There is a parking […]
We stayed in Pacific Beach as many tourists do when visiting San Diego, and enjoyed it very much for our needs. The location is very central to all neighborhoods of the city, many shops (specifically Garnet St.) and restaurants are in walking distance, and the beach is beautiful. Our hotel […]
The island of Coronado was the first San Diego neighborhood on the list to explore, and it made for a most lovely afternoon. Driving over the sky blue bridge that gradually rises over the sparking water of the San Diego bay was a glorious sight. After a long morning of […]
