Bistro Tallulah Review Quote

24 February 2011

Review: I’ve dined twice at Bistro Tallulah while in Glens Falls for work assignments at the Adirondack Theatre Festival, and I’m thrilled to find such a satisfying eatery downtown, right around the corner from the theater. (I like Davidson Brothers’ beer, but the food evokes just a “meh” and the brewpub isn’t air-conditioned.) Tallulah, open since late last year, is a small, casual place with an authentic bistro feel, including paper table coverings torn from a large roll, carafes of wine, chunky glassware, duck confit, whole roasted suckling pig and a large window into the kitchen at the back, where chef-owner Shawn Whalen is always visible at work. Whalen offers large and small sizes of most of his dishes, and I love being able to have a small plate of scallops, for example, followed by a $10 petite steak frites with Gorgonzola or a $12 dish of herb-crusted sweetbreads atop potato and celery-root puree. Given gas prices, I don’t see driving up to Tallulah just for dinner, but it’s a must-stop anytime I’m in the area. LINK TO ARTICLE

Steve Barnes column: 5 local Capital Region chefs who keep the heat on



 

 


The Capital Region has its share of big-name chefs, but the majority of local diners on any given night are fed, and fed well, by chefs who work out of the spotlight, whether as sous chefs in top kitchens or as chef-owners in small, casual eateries. It's not possible to give attention to all of those who deserve it, but let's start the new year by recognizing a representative five chefs who consistently do great work...  More

Uncorked Glens Falls

We make it easier for you to find, and enjoy, wine

EVERY WINE LABEL CLAIMS THE WINE WILL BE JUST RIGHT FOR YOU. Have you ever gone to a wine store, gotten little or no assistance, picked a promising label, and then found the wine was totally different from what you expected? We have.

THERE ARE OVER 230 WINERIES IN NEW YORK STATE. Wineries from the Hudson River Valley, Finger Lakes, Lake Erie and Long Island have been producing award-winning wines for decades. Have you found many wines from these regions in your local wine or liquor store? We didn't.
We're Margot and Rich Cirino, the proprietors of UnCorked Glens Falls (formerly New York Wine Cork), a unique wine store in upstate New York. Our mission is to make it easier for you to find, and enjoy, wine.

On May 16, 2000, we opened New York Wine Cork in a little, tiny 20' x 20' store between Hartford and Granville. Our plan was to sell New York State wines by mail order from our website. We expected to see our UPS driver every day and just a few random (perhaps lost) customers in person at our little Baker Road shop. Goodness, how things changed!

So many people came to visit us in Hartford that, in 2005, we moved our store to Glens Falls, just as it was awakening from a very, very long economic nap.
