I left Rochester in 1979 in the pursuit of new adventures in cultures, food, personalities and the differences and common thoughts people share.
It’s been beyond my dreams of fun, traveling around the world and living in several places: San Francisco, Atlanta, Tiburon and Mill Valley, Santa Fe, Cabo San Lucas, Oregon, Hilton Head Island and now Sonoma. But I feel the time has come to go back to my roots and explore the local food and wine scene there.
I’ve had friends send me Rochester food specialties and realize I miss those old flavors. I’ve decided to pack up my antiques, most of which are heading back from going on all my travels, and come back with me. I’ve often said that my furniture has seen more of North America than most people.
The food and wine scene has exploded in Western New York and it will be fun to revisit old haunts and explore new.
I will be posting my findings and welcome you to join me along the way.
