If you're ever in town, it's worth a stop. But so many Rochester places are!

Oh, dear. Rochester has so much better to offer, Robert. Whatever you do, don't order the reuben there.

What were you doing in Rochester? I just went to Rochester ! I went to Dogtown... but the wursts at Swan Market are pretty pretty good... better of course is Redd the same Redd that was in Yountville in the Napa Valley. Rochester is the Real Estate Porn capital of America. And if you’re still there, don’t miss the big big big Wegman’s- it’s the Bergdorf Goodman of supermarkets.

Swan Market is great, you're right. And the housing stock here is amazing.

And don’t miss the cocktail event though I can’t remember when it starts or started

And check out the restos in the public market

It’s the Tin Building before it was rebuilt

lol 😂

Do go to Redd - it was my fave resto in Yountville when Napa Valley Vintners were my client - such a treat to have it in Rochester

And if you drive back to NYC - stop in Binghamton for Spiedies !!
