We Ranked The 10 Best Eastern European Restaurants In New York And Here Are The Results

One of the best plates of pierogi in New York comes out of a former church. I did not see that coming, and honestly, it feels a little perfect for food this comforting. Eastern European cooking has always felt a little sacred to me, like a family ritual. Recipes like these crossed oceans in someone’s memory, and they still taste like home to the families who carried them.

The 10 Remote Finger Lakes, New York Diners Most Travelers Never Find

Breakfast at one country diner can cost less than a fancy coffee, and I love that math. The doors open at 5 AM, so early birds can dig in before most alarms even ring. Getting to places like that usually means leaving the busy lakeside traffic far behind you. You’ll roll down quiet county roads between the lakes, where the towns seem to get smaller with every mile.

New pub opens near Honeoye Lake with beef on weck, burgers | Exclusive

Meech is a beloved pet, specifically April Baylor's Chihuahua Daschund pug, a 10-year-old chiweenie who curls up under desk. Meech is also in the name of Baylor's pub, which opened over the Halloween weekend near Honeoye Lake in the space that most recently housed various incarnations of the Valley Inn, and has been in use, off and on, as a restaurant for years. Even before opening, it seems Meech's was on everyone's lips. "Everyone asks," Baylor said. "It's so funny." Baylor, 26, has worked in the food industry for years, mostly serving and bartending. When this place came up for sale, Honeoye's small-town vibe was a perfect fit for Baylor's small-town vibe. "A girl with a dream," said Baylor, a Rushville native who said she has worked all over Canandaigua, Bristol and Naples through the years. Baylor loves the people aspect of the food service industry, seeing people from all walks of life and meeting people from all over. The fast-paced environment is a bonus. "Some of my best friends are people I've met from behind the bar or sitting next to them at a bar or restaurant," Baylor said. On the Meech's Pub menu Expect to choose from a

5 Best Restaurants in Rochester, New York You Need to Try Before Everyone Else Finds Them

Rochester, New York — a city where the Genesee River tumbles through old brick mills and lilacs bloom in the spring, where the laughter of college students mingles with the wisdom of old-timers, and the scent of coffee, barbecue, and fresh bread drifts through neighborhoods stitched together by memory and migration. Here, the architecture is a patchwork: grand mansions on East Avenue, sturdy worker’s cottages, and the gentle sprawl of new ambition. Rochester is a city where the snow falls deep and the spirit runs deeper — where families gather at festivals, artists paint the city’s story, and every meal is a celebration of resilience and reinvention.

I like a lot of foods, but seafood is my favorite, and I don’t think that will ever change. East Coast and West Coast, I’ve had it all, seafood in every coastal town from Newport, Oregon, down to San Francisco, California, Long Island to Boston. So when it comes to seafood, if I say it’s good, it’s good. And Roc Lobster? Very good.

Fairport’s Compané Trattoria offers a new generation of Italian cooking

The cheese tray at the brewery was built for four people, not the crowd of us circling it like vultures fifteen minutes into a two-hour panel discussion. We stood there staring at what looked like a Polly Pocket accessory, doing the math on how a roomful of thirty adults were supposed to split eleven cubes of pepper jack.
