The Hudson Valley Food News You Need to Fuel Up in June

A pint-sized coffee shop in Wappingers Falls, a southern Italian spot in Catskill, and a Vietnamese bistro in Troy spice up the region.

 

Authentic Calabrian food from southern Italy awaits at Radici in Catskill, featuring classic panini combos and rustic pizza topped with ‘nduja, a spreadable spicy sausage. 518.719.0550

Ready Coffee in Wappingers Falls has a full gamut of lattes and mochas, as well as hot, iced, and frozen brews. But this tiny drive-through also specializes in teas, milkshakes, and smoothies. Opens at 5 a.m.!

A new face in Troy’s influx of Asian restaurants, Quang’s Vietnamese Bistro has been, hands-down, the buzziest new Capital Region spot. Order the pho, of course (beef, chicken, or vegan), but also save room for shrimp spring rolls with peanut sauce. 510.301.1757

Explore the world of varietals and expand your palate at Poughkeepsie’s oh-so-stylish 1915 Wine Cellar. Menu changes to suit the sip — perhaps a grilled baguette with prosciutto, brie, and fig preserves to complement a special red blend. 845.232.5311

With a sister spot in SoCal, The Red Dot Vegetarian Kitchen brings a welcome West Coast vibe to Wurtsboro. Vegan bacon BLAT (“A” for avocado) on homemade sourdough is a top choice, along with Indian faves like stuffed paratha and kulcha. 845.644.5000
