rdywenur Says: Visit Mike Zarnock's Hot Wheels display at the Childrens Museum. He has one of the best and most extensive "hot wheels" collections going and an official expert. (What a rewarding hobby has turned into over the years).
karynm Says: we went to the brewery every time we were lucky enough to stay with our grandparents! i have brought my eldest and his cousins there and this year will be bringing the rest of the kids ! Cant wait! So much fun!!!
nikola316 Says: I guess this is one of the oldest churches in the area or something??? I am not sure.For some reason, the sign in front of it claims that it is "historic"...???
nikola316 Says: This place was on it's last legs while brewing Golden Anniversary and Black Label beers. These were the bottom of the barrel.However it's acquisition of the Saranac Beer label has pumped new life into it's halls.
rdywenur Says: A must see is to stop and take a tour of the brewing company. Home of Utica Club beer and Schultz and Dooley along with a multitude of other talking beer steins. (Officer Suds and the Countess 2 other of my favorites) They were a popular group used in a clever commercial no...

Davendee2000 Says: My wife and I ordered almost $300 of food from the acting menu for a party we were having. After a considerable wait to pick up the food (which was ordered a week prior) I got it home as friends and family were arriving, set up the food which we had to use our own trays and...
Patio Drive In: The Dog's Don't Bite Here
rdywenur Says: There aren't too many old fashioned diners left. The service is very hospitable and just to hear Tony's unique laugh is worth stopping in for. Always a warm and friendly experience.You won't be disappointed. They make the best "chili dogs" in the world. These are the "dogs"...

Chesterfield Restaurant: Mangia
rdywenur Says: The restauarant is a small restaurant with just enough ambiance of a local neighborhood and dash of upscale dining. My favorite dish was the Chicken Riggies. A unique dish born of this area. It is a light red sauce with chicken pieces and hot cherry peppers. Just enough to...
One of my fondest memories was of the local most popular band "Target". Now you have to travel to SC to see them. Once they came to Rochester where I caught their act and a most terrific display of drum playing by Maurice. What a show. My last time to see them was when they were playing in Alexander Bay while I was there for the weekend.

rdywenur Says: How many people get to study for their citizenship, get to have a news photo taken to boot and then years later get an autographed signature of the first lady. My mom was very proud to recieve it and I remembered she studied hard to earn it. While I was learning to read so...
If some of the americans go on...
Drazzig Says: If some of the americans go on and on about how much they love your accent, call them a wanker as if it's a good thing, and as they won't have a clue what it meens, they'll think your they're best friend!! If they know wanker, try any other english slang like tosser, or a...
EileenK2 Says: Corn Hill looks a lot worse than it is. The main problem is that it is abandoned and lonely at night. Eagle and Rutger Streets are the ones to stay off of at night. There are just too many empty lots.I used to use James Street if I wanted to walk through Cornhill at night to...
Guess what??? CORN HILL AGAIN!!!!!
nikola316 Says: To be frank, I don't think there is much to worry about in Utica except this area.I have heard rumors (from old timers in Utica) of there being a Bosnian Mafia presence now, but I have my doubts.I guess noone worried about us Italians until it became a stark reality though....
nikola316 Says: I guess there were more houses here at one time.They turned into crack/ drug houses, so they were demolished.All of the empty lots on the right of the photo were once homes.What a pity.

Obviously Waterville. We were four English guys staying there for a while, but because it's such a small place we became famous enough to get in the local newspaper as the first international people to ever stay there.

rdywenur Says: Florentine Pastry Shop For some of the best Italian pastries to die for. I have yet to find a canoli that surpases the Florentine's. This is definetly a must see and do event . Another favorite is a "pustie" filled with either vanilla or chocolate creme and an expresso.
Drazzig Says: Go to a small town called Waterville 40 minutes away. It's a typical small town with wooden houses where everyone knows everyone. Just like a movie set. We stayed with a friend who's family were the kindest most generous people I've met. Woodstock '99 in Rome. We...
