We were in Poughkeepsie, had lunch and inquired if there was a panaderia (bakery) that carried…read moreMexican breads and pastries. There is one particular roll called a Bolillo that we've looked for in several Mexican neighborhoods; in the northeast. It looks like a small French bread; very popular in Mexico City. Spoke to the owner and it was a little late in the day for them. Most are sold to restaurants. I have to be back in Poughkeepsie Monday. She's going to save a half a dozen for me. The place looks very clean and well organized. I noticed that they had off to the side, the tongs and pizza serving trays. Go to any bakery in CDMX, and you'll see the same thing. It kind of gives the place authenticity. The weekend has passed and we're here for the Bolillos. The owner had a 1/2 dz. of them aside for us. 6 for $6. very reasonable. Can't wait to turn one into a torta, Mexican sandwich. : )

There was also this raspberry bar that I forgot the name of but it was crispy on the outside and so soft on the inside, that one was definitely our favorite. Also it's so cute inside! All pink with what seemed like a hand-built cabana decoration around the register. Everyone was super friendly, and I'll definitely be back to share these amazing desserts with some friends and family. Sorry all the desserts pictured already have bites taken out! Couldn't resist!

When we reached I asked them if they had anything left since the display looked empty. We bought one yuzu tart and one coffee/chocolate based tart. For the first time in my life non chocolate flavor was my first choice. It was soo delicious. I would definitely recommend this place and would surely go to try on the remaining desserts. People who worked there were nice too plus ambiance is very cute! Went there again the second time and trust me their desserts are exceptional. Great flavor, amazing desserts.

Located near the Poughkeepsie train station this cute little shop offers some of the best cookies…read moreI've ever tasted - baked to order while you wait so you get them fresh out of the oven! They offer classic flavors like snickerdoodle and chocolate chip as well as more unique offerings like strawberry shortcake (my favorite!!) We were greeted immediately and walked through the process of choosing our cookies by a very friendly staff member, who was happy to point out some of their favorites. Specialty flavors do vary seasonally. There's a little bit of seating inside but they seem to have more takeaway business. Parking is available right in front of the shop - with a time limit.

The service was OK not overly greeting but not necessarily rude. I do understand that things are…read moremade fresh but the time we can be excessive and less than as told I ordered a brownie that was in the end tasted OK but not the most appealing and was overdone on the outside and completely raw in the middle due to the fact that I feel as though my brownie was not prepared nicely was completely unprecedented and just thrown into a plastic container with no sort of carefulness and care in the world and the price I don't think I will be returning maybe one day I'll give a cookie a try but I feel like the bang isn't worth your buck

Thanks to a friend for the referral to La Deliziosa in the Little Italy section of Poughkeepsie…read more Back in the day, this area was busy and now it's not. We did sit outside after 5 and it got busy as folks drove in and walked up after work. So, for us..I told hubby he didn't need to buy anything because he already had sweets in the hotel room. However once he had a look at the cases, he just had to buy something! His favorite is the lobster tail and cannoli and I had to get the black and white cookie. We sat outside and since I had to be on a call, hubby went in for a strawberry ice. No chocolate until the weekend . A couple of bites of the black and white cookie for me right away. It's not overly make my teeth rattle sweet and the crumb is very much like a cake. I ate the rest after dinner and it quickly had hardened. Hubby LOVED the lobster tail. 5 out of 5. Hubby took a taste of the cannoli and gave it a thumbs up. He enjoyed the water ice more than Ralph's because it wasn't as icy. Local businesses are so important to the local community and it seems that La Deliziosa is holding its own. Regardless let's keep them going!

I'm not gonna lie--this whole dinner was part of a very specific mission. I was craving ribs, and…read morewhen I saw this place not only had them but also served hibiscus lemonade, I made the executive decision to have my family drive to Poughkeepsie from our bed & breakfast just to check it out. Worth it? Mostly, yes! Food: 4/5 We tried a little bit of everything, the Seared chicken breast - Hands down my favorite dish of the night. Perfectly cooked, well-seasoned, and flavorful. Followed by the Bacon, egg, and homemade biscuit - A close second! The biscuit was dense and satisfying, and it had a really unique pesto-like sauce on top that made it memorable. Some other shout outs: 1) Orecchiette veggie pasta - Orecchiette is hard to find on menus, so I was delighted to see it here. It was a nice light option among our heavier dishes. 2) Jerk ribs - OK, so this is where my expectations and reality didn't fully align. They were well-cooked, but I'm a saucy girl, and these weren't as slathered or juicy as I'd hoped. That said, the rest of my table really enjoyed them. Also, that hibiscus lemonade? Chef's kiss. Refreshing and flavorful, and exactly the kind of detail that makes a place stand out to me. Service: 4/5 Now, here's where I was really surprised: one person was running the whole show. The head chef was managing the kitchen and the front of house--no servers, no extra help. Just him. For the amount of work that entails, he crushed it. Was it a bit slower than a staffed restaurant? Of course. But honestly, it gave the whole experience a humble, homegrown vibe that I appreciated. Also, it meant a lot to support a Black-owned restaurant and actually connect with the person behind the food. Final Thoughts: While we came for dinner, I could tell from the menu (and the vibe) that this place is really known for brunch. I'm genuinely curious to come back during brunch hours to see how the energy--and menu--might shift. Either way, it's definitely worth a visit if you're in the area and looking for a spot with heart, flavor, and soul.

Hard ice cream is made on-site, and it is creamy, smooth, and delicious. Flavors stand out, unlike some shops where everything tastes the same. If you like Pistachio, you will find that they use teal Pistacio nuts, rather than cheaper varieties. Butter Pecan is also a winner. The various fruit flavors are also stand outs. This shop is friendly, very clean, and pleasing to the eye. Stop by, see for yourself....you won't be sorry.

Instead he approached the situation aggressively and acted with petty power. Disappointing for sure. Should you got to millhouse? Yes I think so.

My sister got a Sunday and I got one as well. Only mine had more toppings because I just simply could not decide. Hot fudge for me, caramel because I could, and wet walnuts for my now departed mother who adored them. The whipped cream was delicious and the service delightful.

A decent selection of drinks, macaroons and merch. Service was great, since before me was a mother and two kids bouncing around while placing orders and he was quick to make the drinks, plus for me when I asked about apple kiwi drink if more apple forward taste or kiwi he give his honest opinion so I was able to settle on strawberry lemon tea. Plus when I asked for only 15% sugar he said might be hard to keep drink at low on sugar but he try. I appreciate that since sometimes having a specific order earns you a sign, but the drink itself came out perfect sweet, but not overly sickly sweet. Definitely a great place to get something refreshing on these beyond humid summertimes
