Hi All,

We'll be in Utica for 1 night in May. Have tickets to see Ron White (Blue Collar Comedy). Besides the casino's, what other attractions are in the area?

TIA... Joe Pa :cool:

The FX Matt Brewery Tour is great. You'll probably meet Ron White there. You could both stagger to the concert together.

Thx for the feedback. I didn't think there was much in the area but, with only 1 night, we won't need much to keep us entertained.

Thanks Again,

Joe :cool:

Isn't the legendary Moosewood Cafe in Utica? I'd love to have a meal there (several Moosewood cookbooks are faves in our kitchen).

Aha! Thanks Richard. Well, at least I had the "ca" part of the name right lol.

Anyway, this inspired me to dig out a cookbook to make an old favorite for tonight.

I was born in the area and moved away when I was twelve. Been back a few times and the best thing to do in Utica is EAT. I am telling you, if you love good italian food, you will not be disappointed. There is a bakery with pasties, almond paste cookies, cannoli, and rum cakes. There are delis with the best bread and pizza. Chesterfield's restaurant is good. You used to be able to take a brewery tour but I dont know if that is still there.

You could take a 15 mile jaunt over to the Herkimer Diamond Mine and try your hand at finding some "Herkimer" Diamonds. Lots of fun if you want to try something different.
