People were lingering around the block and near the entrance. Uh-oh. I didn’t make and reservations, it’s going to be a good long wait.It seems as though Pastabilities [311 S Franklin St, Syracuse, NY 13202] is one of the hottest joints in town. Luck was on our sides when we […]

We felt kind of funny heading into the mall on our weekend getaway adventure, but the ends justify the means, right? On a quest for some pinball in Syracuse, we found Cloud City Comics & Toys [ShoppingTown Mall, 3649 Erie Blvd E, Syracuse, NY 13214] which has a great little […]
Harrison Bakery, 1306 W Genesee St, Syracuse, NY 13204 We were going to split one, but when we sat out at the bright red table in front and I held it in my hands I knew it wouldn’t go so well (for Jeff at least). I sent him back inside […]
This is the kind of place I dream about having in my city. Roji Tea Lounge [108 E Washington St #2, Syracuse, NY 13202] has such a relaxed and peaceful atmosphere, it’s a perfect alternative nightlife spot. Plenty of seating to be found, be it a couch, folding chair, or […]
Utah has five national parks, a lot to see for just one state. Many travelers decide to make a loop out of them and may not think to visit the state parks, which would be quite a mistake in the case of Antelope Island State Park [4528 West 1700 South […]
On my journey home from Syracuse I decided to break up the trip by visiting Binghamton. I had never been before, but heard that the city is known for spiedies: sandwiches filled with marinated cubes of meat. Not far off the highway Spiedie & Rib Pit [1268 Upper Front Street Binghamton, […]
Migratory season is upon us and I wish I were flying south with the birds to warmer weather too. For the moment I have to settle on watching the birds travel, what a journey they have. Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge [3395 Auburn Rd, Seneca Falls, NY 13148] is just a […]
Known as the ‘Central Park of Central New York,’ Onondaga Lake Park [106 Lake Drive, Liverpool, NY 13088] has got a lot going on. Just minutes from downtown Syracuse dense streets give way to green grass and an expansive lake. Onondaga Lake is the focal point of the park, 4.6 […]
Charming with an old world feel, yet absolutely packed on a Saturday night, Eva’s European Sweets [1305 Milton Ave, Syracuse, NY 13204] is the place to grab dinner in Syracuse. As a party of two we waited just a few moments to be seated in a cozy corner table. I […]
History, art, architecture, and nature all blended into an out of the ordinary hike in an urban setting…The Onondaga Creekwalk [Armory Square Trailhead 310 W Jefferson St. Syracuse, NY] was a great way to explore the city of Syracuse as first time visitors – just follow the yellow brick road! […]
Star child…Iron Lion Zion… Jive turkey? What does it all mean!?! Breakfast in Syracuse, of course! Local art lines the bright purple walls, this place definitely has the funk going on. Could there be a better pairing than Funk ‘n Waffles [313 S Clinton St, Syracuse, NY 13202]? If you […]
An abandoned train yard transformed into an art park, how romantic? A tiny little treasure in the middle of the Syracuse warehouse district, Lipe Art Park [W Fayette St, Syracuse, NY 13204 Between S Geddes St & Seneca St] brings color and life into a once dreary locale. It’s just […]
