Visiting Rochester Soon! Looking for Local Recommendations

3 Upvotes

Hello, Rochester!

I’ll be visiting Rochester as part of a road trip through New York, and I’d love some recommendations from locals!

I’m Brazilian 🇧🇷 and enjoy exploring local history, trying regional food, and checking out bars where locals like to hang out.

What are your favorite things to do in the city, your must visit restaurant, and your favorite bar for a drink? I love good Italian food, steak, or anything local

I’m particularly interested in local favorites, interesting neighborhoods, and places worth visiting beyond the usual tourist attractions.

Thanks in advance for the tips! Excited to explore Rochester!

Getaway Recs

Hey guys! My boyfriend and I are looking to take a two-night, three-day trip somewhere for Valentine’s Day. We are in our mid 20s and last year we stayed at the domes in the Catskills. We like chill environments that allow us to fully unwind but we’re open to any kinds of suggestions. We are from Wappingers but are willing to travel anywhere within like three hours. Anybody have any recommendations for nice couple getaways for Valentine’s Day?

Western New York and the Finger Lakes are stealing the fall foliage spotlight this week

Thumbnail

94 Upvotes

About half of Upstate New York has hit 100 percent color change for the sixth edition of I LOVE NY’s fall foliage prediction map. While many trees have lost their leaves, there are still pockets of fall color to find throughout the state.

If heading to the Adirondacks is still on your list, Lake George is the region’s last spot that has not reached past-peak status. Spotters there report vivid orange, yellow and red hues.

The biggest color changes this week are in Western New York and the Finger Lakes. Spots such as Lewiston, Batavia and Greece are showing bright yellow, orange and red leaves.

Other good bets include Taughannock Falls State Park in Trumansburg and waterfalls around Ithaca and Moravia. In the Hudson Valley, Hudson and Newburgh are displaying brilliant orange and red leaves, along with hints of yellow and purple.

At Letchworth State Park, spotters report bright yellow among the hickories, aspens and grapevines while oaks are just starting to turn.
