New World Home Cooking

And, the winner for longest descriptive title of a restaurant dinner goes to ... New World Home Cooking!

Owners Ric Orlando and Liz Corrado have come up with this doozy: "Farm and Vineyard to Cart to Table -- An American Dim Sum Style Wine and Food Pairing Dinner."

The New York-centric wine and food event will be held at the Saugerties restaurant beginning at 7 p.m. Friday, December 16. Reservations, which may be made online or by calling 845-246-0900, are $75 per person.

As Chef Orlando explains it, "Imagine bottles of New York wines on your table that best represent the Hudson Valley and the Finger Lakes 'farm vineyard' style paired with a series of local ingredient based small plates carted to your table on dim sum style."

The wines will be from Dr. Frank, Millbrook, Silver Thread, Whitecllff, and Hunt Country. The foods will come from Kilcoyne Farm, Campanelli’s, SUNY Cobleskill, Story Farms, Sunfrost Farms, R&G Cheese, Wright Farm, Old Chatham Sheepherding Company, Maynard’s Orchards, RSK Farm, Sorbello Farm, Taliaferro Farm, Poughkeepsie Indoor Farm, Wiltbank Mushrooms, and Hudson Valley Duck.
