Power’s Irish Pub Gets Ready for St. Patrick’s Day
Clifton Park Pub Wears Green Year Round
It’s definitely the trend to push through the holidays as fast as possible. Before Halloween we saw our stores full of Santas and holiday lights, and now that Valentine’s Day has passed and heart-shaped boxes of candy are nearing 75% off, [...]
Top My Pizza in Clifton Park, Review
A New Pizza Place Opens in Clifton Park
Out of the construction directly beside Moe’s Southwest Grill in Clifton Park, a new restaurant recently emerged: Top My Pizza. And while yet another pizza place isn’t quite what CP needs, this place is just a bit different from Pizza Hut, Venezia, [...]
Hattie’s: A Saratoga Institution
Fried Chicken, Mac and Cheese, Crab Slaw Salad…Hattie’s Has It
It doesn’t get anymore Southern…or Saratoga than Hattie’s. Finding Southern home cooking in Saratoga Springs would sound about as likely as finding snow in July, but the fried chicken, collard greens, peach cobbler and rest of the carefully chosen menu is as [...]

Sushi Thai Garden: A Pleasant Mix of Thai and Japanese Cuisine
Located in the heart of Saratoga on historic Phila Street (across from Hattie’s and Caffè Lena), Sushi Thai Garden is a happening place on a happening street. On a Wednesday night at 7:30pm, the place was busy, but on [...]

Located at 24 Front Street in downtown Ballston Spa across from Wiswall Park, The Whistling Kettle is not only cozy and inviting, with its brick interior and hardwood floors, but as the restaurant’s name suggests, it’s also quite notable for its vast tea selection. Offering over a hundred [...]
Cock ‘n Bull Restaurant, Galway, Review
Upon first sight, you might not be inclined to give the Cock n’ Bull Restaurant a passing glance. Housed in a somewhat plain, brown barn-like structure along Parkis Mills Road in Galway, the outside of the Cock ‘n Bull is downright unimpressive, but this is not something that should deter [...]
Restaurant Reviews: CAFÉ RUSTICA in Lake Placid and the ADK CAFÉ in Keene
Today was a busy day for me; I got invited to lunch and dinner; as suggested by the title, both restaurants were cafes. Many underestimate the meal offerings in the North Country, but both of these establishments served local food and had excellent [...]
On an empty stretch of Rt. 29, 12 miles west of Saratoga, stands a cheerful structure that could quite possibly be mistaken for a white clapboard green-trimmed house, except for the large sign that says Village Pizzeria and Ristorante. Surrounded and bedecked by what is probably hundreds of plants, this East Galway eatery offers up [...]
Sitting along a wooded curve where Beach Road meets State Route 9L, just outside of Lake George Village, is a humble single story log cabin known as The East Cove Restaurant. The East Cove has been owned and operated by Peter and Debbie Smith for 42 years and has grown into a favorite among locals, [...]
