My Girlfriend and I just went 2 weeks ago. We stayed downtown at a B&B. Are you going to the track all days? We went 2 of the 4 (1 was dark).
There are plenty of cool shops and restaurants downtown on Broadway. You could easily spend most of a day doing that. Also the Spa state park has 2 pools. We spent Tuesday there, I handicapped the Wed card while she sat in the sun. At the track I would "splurge" for grandstand seats, that way you have seats. Both times when I went to purchase GS seats, people sold me their extras, one guy had extra clubhouse reserved so we were really close to the finish line. I think GS are 8 bucks each. As for specific restaurants, as stated before, there are plenty, just depends on what cuisine you like. Go downtown though, its about a mile away. As for getting to the track and parking, not sure where you are staying, but come south down East street. As you approach track, accross from the training track you can park for $10 and your super close. The first time I went we came in in Union ave and it took awhile. If I would have went north 1 more exit (off 87) to Lake ave, then left on East street, it would have been much easier. |

Do not make the terrible mistake of getting all caught up in one of her picks keying a major pick-4 score and decide that you should get married.
That is my other advice, despite still being married 7 years later.

If you have a little spare time, drive up to Lake George for dinner or something. It's very nice up there also, kind of a romantic atmosphere... good place for a date. Its a short drive from saratoga, maybe 30-40 minutes. As far as Saratoga entertainment with your girlfriend in mind... it all depends what she likes. You can get pretty wild and crazy at Horseshoe's, Gaffney's and the Tavern. it's a younger crowd. Siro's is of course always fun. now you can actually get a 16 oz stella at siro's for only 5 bucks! if she likes mexican food... Mexican Connection is a must. but generally, wherever you go you'll have a good time. She might be all excited about horse racing after a trip to the spaaaa!

Siro's has Big Shot, a Billy Joel tribute band, playing on Friday night. They're pretty good, if you are into that sort of thing. Drinks there are much more reasonable than they used to be.

Doug,
Are you refering to food? Salvadore doesn't really sound south of the border, not the one I know.

Do you have to pay her extra for out of town trips?

The people who pay prostitutes for anything other than sex are messed up.
Do you think Elliot Spitzer wanted to take his high priced Ho bags out for a night on the town? No, you shoot your chowder in their grill and split before they have enough time to grab a towell. |
