FP16: Taste of the Nation Hudson Valley

FP16: Taste of the Nation Hudson Valley

At last, Taste of the Nation (www.tasteofthenation.org) has returned to the Hudson Valley, and I can think of nowhere more appropriate for it to be showcased than at the Culinary Institute of America (www.ciachef.edu). Created by Share Our Strength (www.strength.org), this wonderful nationwide fundraiser supports anti-hunger programs and unites the efforts of those of us who believe that food is more than just a profession — as we feed others for a living, we strongly believe that no human being should go hungry, whatever the circumstances. Join me as I taste my way through the rooms of the CIA with Tara, one of my best friends (and an affable partner in crime).

Following are the highlighted tastings from our adventure:

Café Saint-Ex (www.saint-ex.com)
Captain Lawrence Brewing Company (www.captainlawrencebrewing.com)
Keegan Ales (www.keeganales.com)
Gendron Catering (www.gendroncatering.com)
