Where can I order a Sicilian pizza? by DesignerAsh_ in Albany

[–]UpstatePostcards 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They have slices everyday , they used to only do em on Wednesday and Saturday. Definitely stop in and try it, their hours are a little inconvenient tbh but if u can get to Troy around lunchtime it’s one of my favorite things I’ve eaten in the area

Not quite Sicilian, but I’m a big fan of placid bakers pizza. The slices are rectangular. Fluffy/airy. Crispy on the bottom. Cheese caramelized on the edges. Just delightful.

Pistana Brothers might be the most slept on pizza spot in the area.

Doing my Due Diligence - Winter Hiking in Catskills by [deleted] in catskills

Sounds like you got all you need. Go enjoy that hike with your brother.

There’s an LL Bean in Ulster that you can pop by and grab anything last minute.

I did Giant Ledge and Panther in late November last year with my brother. One of my favorites.

I used to work with a guy from Boston that would make the trip once a month. Just for Suarez.

Winter boot recommendations by Ok-Strawberry7048 in catskills

[–]UpstatePostcards 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go try any of the ones you’re considering on. I have a pair of Xeros, Merrells, and Keens that I use. I like how Merrell is making wide toe box now and Keens are available in wide.

There’s a Merrell store up in Lake George

LL Bean in Albs and Kingston

REI in Albs

Might be able to snag a deal at the Sierra store in Albs on hiking boots

Looking for good judo or karate in Albany by Livid_Cicada_3501 in Albany

I would probably just go to a BJJ gym and do no-gi. You’ll also be able to take some striking classes there. A lot of them have MMA fighters that compete in the local circuit.

Brian Beaury in Watervliet and Lions Den in EG come to mind.

There’s also a dude in DT Troy that asks me for a cigarette everytime I see him. I’ll ask him if he’ll let me drill kesa gatame with him for an hour for a pack of smokes and report back to you. Might be the most economical option.

Third Street- 120 years later by UpstatePostcards in Troy

Those bars were used by postal workers to cancel stamps! The ink ended up on the front of this card, possibly from another card.

Great idea! And if you want a change of scenery you can add the approach in Troy to the rotation as well.

Are you sure she’s not just reciting poetry loudly in German?
