Saratoga vendor changes for 2011

[slotdirt]

Really though, as far as using horse names as internent handles, the odds of a poster named "Scat Daddy" posting useful information has to be about as likely as someone who went by, say, Rock Hard Ten. Just as an example.

The original post in this thread ignores the truth. How could anyone argue the food options have not improved every year in Saratoga recently? Why would we take a step backwards this year?

No improvements were needed after the cranberry coleslaw was brought in by Hatties.

Where is Harry M. Stevens when you need him?

No Nyra store in clubhouse, and they are all outsourced now to Centerplate from Kentucky..lot of locals out of summer work as a result you would think...sister has managed several stores for years and is out.

It's actually fantastic. And their fried chicken is literally the best in the world. You must try it.

It does sound delicious. Especially during hot summer days where barbecue would set your intestines on fire. Decent alternative.

There ought to be a Bitch & Moan forum for the airing of injustices and grievances, both imaginary and real. Randall and Alan can moderate.

The chicken salad sandwich and cucumber salad also highly recommended.

Also -- Dunkin Donuts on-track this year!

As Homer Simpson would say, "Donuts... aauauuhhhhhh... Woo-hoo!"

And - not to get off topic (much) - but last night I was in the local Hannaford's, looking to buy - donuts. I reached in for a chocolate frosted - yikes, not only was it frosted - two-tone, chocolate and vanilla - it was also... glazed.

Frosted AND glazed. Talk about a gut-busting sugar-bomb!

...So I only bought two.

I guess a better question is if there's anything at Hattie's that ISN'T amazing. (Answer: No!)

Saratoga has the best restaurants for a small city in the entire country IMO.

You know of a lot of other cities with 30,000 residents that have as many good restaurants as Saratoga Springs?

Wishing Well, Grey Gelding, Cliff's, Black Watch, Chez Pierre, The Wine Bar, Panzas, Brindisis, Forno Bistro, The Stadium Cafe, Hatties... those are just off the top of my head, I can't remember the Mexican joints but they're great too. What city of <25k people can compete with that? You lived there, you probably know the places better than I do.

...and they named a race for Hattie on July 30th.

There's been a race for Hattie for many years.

mexican connection is one of my favorite mexican resteraunts in the whole country. though I go to the other one once a week with my uncle. (cant think of the freaking name )


I'd trade Sperry's for the stadium cafe though in the above list.


this will be two years in a row that I wont be in Saratoga Springs though. I may try to move back to the north east next year, and if I do, I'll try to never miss a meet again!
