Hudson Valley (NY) Food Guide

By Car: Leisurely Day in Livingston Manor

Enjoy a leisurely weekend in Livingston Manor away from the hustle and bustle of the busy city. Start early but move slowly through a breakfast of Southern-style biscuits, easy hiking trails, smoky brisket sandwiches and chilled beer from some of the best local breweries in upstate New York. Linger over garden-centric small plates as the sun goes down before returning to the city as the stars become visible in the clear Hudson Valley sky.
