    As 2024 comes to a close, I figured I'd change things up. I saved my best meal of the year for my last review. Consistently chosen as the best steakhouse in Ulster County and beyond, End Cut is a cut above the rest (pun intended). But let me tell you why. Starting the meal off with a bowl of mixed nuts seems modest enough at first. Easy to brush off, but as you start to pick up on the attention to detail, you realize this is just the first piece of Chef Jordan's puzzle. The house-made blood orange sorbeto between courses was the next giveaway. Jordan comes out to tend to the roaring fire in between plates, adding wood to the flames that kept us toasty on a chilly night. When the individually sealed mini-glass jars, of Heinz, hit the table, you get it. Nowhere else is doing it like this. You can literally feel the difference while sitting at your table that someone understands ingredients, service, and hospitality. As you leave, you are presented with chunks of chocolate and sent home with a bag of house-made granola for breakfast (11 Madison Park style). You are taken care of from beginning to end and even the next day. After numerous plates of heavy gout-inducing foods, you will tend to feel the burden of your pleasures, but somehow it was a breath of fresh air. Chef Jordan's plates are more like the heavy hitters of the old days, with blue cheese and gorgonzola, mushrooms, and wine reductions. This isn't microgreens and tweezer stuff. I even found the prices to be a breathe of fresh air as my steak was only $42. The bread basket arrives with whipped ricotta and honey to start things off. The brandy gorgonzola shrimp ($18) were the biggest shrimp I've ever seen served in a restaurant. Easily extra-colossal, as I'd guess 6 to a lb. Scallops ($18) and mushrooms with a Gruyère cheese cream sauce were heavenly and heavy. The appetizers were big enough to be an entrée, honestly. Chicken Saltimbocca was so thin I had to dissect it to make sure the prosciutto was even there. Finishing it all off with a sticky toffee bread pudding topped with caramel gelato and a French press of coffee. Nothing geeks me out more as a coffee snob than when I get to press my own coffee at the table. After it was all said and done, we were there for 6hrs! Closing the restaurant down and sitting at the bar for several hours with Jordan discussing the restaurant industry, viral food videos of Tik Tok, and famous chefs. Getting to know him on a personal level and realizing in a lot of ways we are the same. Sometimes, being overly passionate leads to being misunderstood just like Vincent van Gogh. Some might say he was just a mad man cutting off his own ear, but was he not a genius? Who's to say, maybe we are all mad here. #unfilteredeffect Above Photography https://www.instagram.com/b.overly_delicious/ -- at End Cut.

    Great chef. Great service. You walk in and are immediately greeted. Chef always walking around talkin to everybody. Intimate setting. Waited a long time for the scallop app but it is expected for the dish I guess (40 min). It was amazing and filling. Didn't realize the scallops would be so big. Ordered the short rib and after waiting so long and having the scallop app I couldn't eat much of the short rib. Ended up taking it home and having leftovers for a couple days. It was delicious though. They pack it for you. Was a little upset I didn't get any au jus that was with it so left it a little dry.

    My group of friends stayed for lunch at Bocuse for two hours. Oh what a culinary delight!…read more I've been wanting to go to a restaurant at the Culinary Institute of America for some time now. My friends and I were visiting the nearby Vanderbilt house and when I looked at CIA there was a 11:45 am opening left at Bocuse and I snagged it. CIA students alternate between doing the cooking and doing the serving at the CIA restaurants. Since we went in February, it was $30 each for a three course meal. It's $45 starting in mid April. We started off with freshly baked rolls and artisanal butter which was delicious and they asked us throughout the meal if we wanted more. For my first course I chose the garlic and butter drenched escargot which was deliciously marinated. Then I had the chicken in cream sauce with potato purée. Delicately delicious. And lastly my four layer chocolate in a glass had different chocolate and other flavors at each layer point. Overall a feast for the senses. Our student servers were charming and patient. They answered all our questions about their study. I look forward to trying additional CIA restaurants- they have Italian, New American and more. La Bocuse is a must try next time you're in the area.

Although Poughkeepsie has a decent variety of excellent restaurant options, there aren't a lot of upscale places to select from. We opted to book reservations for Brasserie 292 for a Saturday night. When we arrived, we were nearing the end of the dinner rush. We were sat right away, unfortunately it wasn't all too romantic being sat in the middle of the restaurant but understandably the restaurant is on the smaller side. The waiter was attentive, and addressed any of our questions about the menu, even hunting down the bottle of pinot noir we ordered. We opted to start off our night by splitting a half-dozen oysters which came with their in-house hot sauce, and an order of pouple, which was cooked to perfection. For our entrees we selected the red wine braised lamb shank and the dry aged prime NY steak. Since sides for both entrees were not mentioned on the menu, we also ordered sides - wild mushrooms, brussels sprouts and crispy smoked peewee potatoes. Overall the food was excellent and I'm still dreaming about the mushrooms. If we lived locally, would we go back, maybe but overall we had a great experience. Since this was an upscale restaurant, I opted to not photograph our meals and enjoyed being present in the moment.
