After a small setback, today is the day! The massive and stunning Clifton Park Druthers Brewing Company opens today (Wednesday, September 28th) at noon!

The Halfmoon Sandwich Shoppe recently closed when its lease was up and the owners are going in another direction. That left the building at 1613 Route 9 vacant. But not for long. Now we know what will be "rollin'" into that space.

Over the weekend we went out to dinner with another family at Peddler's Bar & Bistro in Clifton Park. Before we reached for the menu, I noticed an interesting-looking "flyer" on the table. It was a message to those ordering alcoholic beverages while dining with their families.

Do you have a "sauce drawer" in your house?

Whenever there's an event at MVP Arena in downtown Albany, people always ask where is a good place to grab some dinner. Usually, the answer is short because there are very few places. The buildings directly across from the MVP Arena have sold and, fingers crossed, someone will open a restaurant or two.

There is a fun way to get into the fall spirit for the whole family this weekend in Saratoga. It's the 8th Annual Giant Pumpkinfest. It highlights agriculture and the largest pumpkins you've ever seen!

A local restaurant from a small Capital Region town has received a big city honor.

In an effort to use a vital part of Glenville, there will be a barrel factory and warehouse built to house whiskey and spirits. It will take the place of the former maple syrup production plant and factory and be transformed into a place for whiskey and spirits.

A special tribute is attached to the 49th annual Adirondack Balloon Festival this year. The event runs from September 22nd through the 25th. This year's festival will honor Joan Grishkot. She and her husband Walter co-founded this spectacular event. Walter passed away in 2011 and Joan passed away in 2021.

When I was in Nashville, we decided to go to the Goo Goo Cluster store. I also had the opportunity to make my own delicious concoction. What is a Goo Goo Cluster? It's arguably the first candy bar ever made. However, they manufacture them only in Nashville and you can't just get them anywhere. In fact, there are only three businesses in the Capital Region where you can get these sweet treats. These aren't exactly the stores you would think you could find them in. Cracker Barrel, Hobby Lobby, and the Tractor Supply Company!

This is my kind of pie - light, crisp, wood-fired, baked fast, and piping hot! A pizzeria in Upstate New York was recently judged as having not just some of the best in the state, but some of the best anywhere, named as one of the Top 50 Best Tasting Pizzas in the WORLD...

We have all been waiting for the brand new, stunning Clifton Park Druthers Brewing Company to open and today (September 15th) was supposed to be the big day. But according to their Facebook page, they aren't able to open it just yet.
