The New York Wine and Culinary Center, located on the waterfront in the charming Finger Lakes city of Canandaigua, has an interesting item in its lineup of communications tools.

A new app, available for free downloading from the iTunes App Store, provides recipes, special events schedules, class information, and push notifications featuring the ability to have special offers for app subscribers. The app also gives users access to the center's Upstairs Bistro menu plus staff picks and recipes from the in-house kitchen.

It's 50.5 MB, requires iOS 7.0 or later, and is compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.

“We’re excited about push notifications capabilities, especially with our 20 new tap handles,” said Christine Maguire, NYWCC food and beverage manager. “Users will be notified of featured beers and changes to the taps via the app."

The Wine & Culinary Center opened in 2006. It contains a large, hands-on kitchen, a demonstration theater, a tasting room, a private dining room, a culinary boutique, and the locally-sourced Upstairs Bistro. Its emphasis is on education and showcasing of New York State food and beverage products.

The facility is located at 800 South Main Street. Phone: (585) 394-7070.
