Niagara-on-the-Lake.<span style="font-size: x-large;">Three days, two nights, four amazing meals.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><span style="font-size: large;"><b>1 – Treadwell | farm to table cuisine </b></span><br />
Friday night dinner al fresco at the impressive spot, <i><a href="https://www.treadwellcuisine.com/" target="_blank">Treadwell</a></i>, in the heart of historic old town where the river meets the lake. Their farm-to-table inspiration was wonderfully done. A standard concept of seasonal ingredients from local Canadian purveyors was taken to the next level by using thought provoking combinations on each plate. We paired the meal with a lovely bubbly from Kew Vineyards, an organic Riesling made in the style of Prosecco!<br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>3 – Masaki Sushi</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Saturday night dinner. Every time we saw a dish arrive at somebody else's table at <a href="https://masakisushi.ca/">Masaki</a>, we wanted to know what it was and order it too! We started out with just one roll plus the chef’s selection of nigiri. We ended up ordering two more rolls and honestly could have kept going...Especially when the couple seated next to us at the bar ordered the una don—marinated bbq eel with steamed rice in sizzling hot stone bowl.</div>

<br />
For my very first time, I was honored to be one of the three judges at this year's Epilepsy Pralid Inc. Chocolate Ball! The theme was, "Chocolate and Cake and the Difference We'll Make."<br />
<div>
<br />
Eight nearby bakeries in the Rochester, NY area participated by creating a cake using a different Dr. Seuss book as its inspiration. They were judged on taste, texture, moisture, complexity, chocolate, creativity, use of theme, neatness, visual chocolate, and technique.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The winning categories included Best Taste, Best Showpiece, and Grand Prize/Overall Winner. There was also a People's Choice Award voted on by event attendees during cocktail hour.</div>

It's the end of September. Summer is officially over. But here in Rochester, the crisp autumn air is finally sweeping through. If your garden is like ours, the tomatoes are still multiplying. We have enough for salads, plain with a dash of salt, or on a sandwich with a simple slap of mayo. This colorful combination is by far my favorite way to enjoy them – ripe and fresh of the vine!</div>

My motto after all is, "Life is not worth living without the occasional burger, fries and shake," so it would be out of character of me not to be curious about Rochester's newest burger institution coming to town. Sure, we have our local landmarks <a href="https://www.tomwahls.com/" target="_blank">Tom Wahl's</a> and <a href="https://www.billgrays.com/" target="_blank">Bill Gray's</a> – both of which I visit frequently. And I can't leave out the national chain <a href="http://www.fiveguys.com/" target="_blank">Five Guys</a>, which never disappoints. It's dubbed my family's "church". True story. So do we need another fast casual restaurant focused on pressed ground beef and deep fried potatoes? Sure, why not. It is after all the all-American meal<span style="font-size: x-small;">*</span>. I was interested to see what sets <a href="http://smashburger.com/" target="_blank">Smashburger</a><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><a href="http://smashburger.com/" target="_blank">®</a> </span> apart from these other successful establishments.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
After brief introductions by corporate staff members and franchisees Brad and Drew DeGrazia (the brothers behind Rochester's Moe's Southwest) we were treated to a substantial tasting menu at the new Victor location in Cobblestone Court. Each burger was cut into quarters for our table of four to share.</div>

Smashburger<span style="font-size: xx-small;">®</span> uses only fresh beef "smashed" on a 400ºF flat top grill searing in the natural flavors. The <b>Classic Smash™</b> is a straightforward combination of cool toppings in the form of pickles, tomato, red onion and green leaf lettuce, plus a smear of their Smash Sauce (made with dill relish, lemon juice, mustard, mayo), melted American cheese atop their seasoned beef patty all sandwiched between a soft egg bun. I picked up hints of breakfast sausage seasonings such as sage, but my table mates thought I was crazy. As far as first impressions go, this did not overly excite me since the burger itself was on the dry side and lukewarm.</div>

The <b>BBQ, Bacon and Cheddar Burger</b> united sweet with salty, crispy with tender and we saw a hotter, juicy burger in this round.

Anyone who knows me or has read my reviews knows I'm mad about anything with mushrooms, so the <b>Truffle Mushroom Swiss Burger</b> was right up my lane. The distinctively fragrant truffle makes an appearance in the mayonnaise spread on their effective egg bun. Thinly sliced crimini mushrooms are sautéed and blanketed by melted Swiss cheese atop their beef patty, this one even juicier than the last. It was altogether earthy, nutty and savory and my favorite of the tasting.</div>

Rochester, we need to talk about this <b>Regional Burger</b>. As the premiere location in town, they have yet to develop a #ROC-centric recipe, so we were treated to their <b>New Yorker Burger</b> served in NYC. It included NY white cheddar, sautéed onions, tomato, fresh spinach and peppercorn garlic aioli on a brioche bun. It didn't thrill me so I'm hoping that we'll be rightly represented with a future customized option. Could it be a "plate" burger with a version of Rochester's famous "hot sauce"? We'll just have to wait and see what they come up with! What type of burger do you think could rightly serve our region? </div>

Beef be gone. It was now time to venture to vegetarian land. I like to consider myself a part-time vegan/vegetarian. Yes I know, ethics aside, I cannot claim to be either unless I commit myself to the humane reasonings behind these lifestyles. I do, however, know that I feel 10-times better when I do not consume meat and dairy on a regular basis. So if I could break it down and simplify my dietary behavior it would look a little like 80/20: Twenty percent of the time I am indulging in whatever my heart and stomach desires. With that said, you can imagine just how many veggie and/or burger burgers I've consumed. The <b>Avocado Ranch Black Bean Burger</b> is topped with pepper jack cheese and ranch dressing, omitting it from the vegan category. Ripe avocado and tomato were the stars here as the bean patty, seasoned with southwestern spices, had an off-putting mushy texture. Mixing in grains to contrast the softened beans would better this burger.</div>

Our last two burger offerings of the day were of the poultry pedigree, or Smashchicken<span style="font-size: xx-small;">®</span>. First came the <b>Spinach, Cucumber and Goat Cheese Chicken</b> revealing a thinly pounded chicken breast amongst rows of crisp cucumber and red onion, ripe tomato, crumbles of goat cheese and an indiscernible balsamic vinaigrette listed on the menu, all on a plush multigrain bun. It was explained to us that the thinness of the chicken allowed for it to be cooked within the same timeframe as the beef burgers. As far as "grilled" chicken sandwiches go, this was on par to other fast food versions.</div>

More enjoyable of the two, and one of the tasting's standouts, was the <b>Buffalo and Blue Cheese Crispy Chicken</b>.

Hand-spun shakes and malts on the menu are made with Häagen-Dazs<span style="font-size: xx-small;">®</span> ice cream. Burgers, fries and shakes are a timeless trio for a reason.

<br />
This July marked five years that I have been married to my best friend and partner in crime – especially when our transgression is drinking fine wine and eating good food. That's why we found ourselves planning a last minute road trip to nearby Geneva and Seneca Lake for a quick getaway.<br />
<br />
After consulting a reliable source on all things wine, who happened to also steer us onto the right road towards a delicious meal, we booked a room for the night at the Ramada on the North end of the lake and packed our overnight bags.<br />
<br />
In my mind, we would be relaxing on various wineries' terraces overlooking rumbling hills elevated around the water. In reality, it was drizzling and at times pouring rain. But we weren't about to let the wetness hold us back.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Did I mention we had less than 20 hours to check everything off our wishlist? That said, they're places I still want to visit – we did not complete the culinary/winery tour by any means. We did stop at places with a lasting impact, however.<br />
<h3 style="text-align: center;">

<br />
Aesthetically breathtaking, the storefront and tasting room adjacent to the production site are the perfect mix of elegance and rustic – an ambiance that evokes effortless yet deliberate planning. Barrels from France line the walls and are used as pedestals beneath farm-style tables.<br />
<br />
A friendly face greeted us as we arrived and guided us to one of the high-tops in their vast tasting room filled with mixed aromas of fresh construction lumber and aged oak. The trained staff possessed a plethora of wine knowledge and led us in the right direction with their seasonal and Rieslings flights. My palate is not trained to eloquently relay the tasting notes, but I will say however, the sparkling wine and semi-dry Riesling was impressive enough to stop in the store on our way out to purchase – a magnum of Riesling nonetheless!<br />

We had some time before our dinner reservation so we stopped at the highly acclaimed casual eatery. Procuring mostly organic products and using locally sourced ingredients is not only a testament to the quality of their offerings but to the commitment of supporting nearby farmers. Not to mention, it's more wholesome and I personally feel good when I consume food made with such integrity.<br />
<br />
Their menu is a playful mix of seasonal, continental dishes from which we chose just a couple of appetizers to keep our appetites at bay before "the big dinner". There were many other plates I was eager to try and look forward to a repeat visit in the near future.<br />
<br />
Our picks: <b>toasted corn and scallion crêpe</b> and <b>whiskey-cured gravlox</b>.<br />
<br />

Roasted pepper
cream sauced the plate for contrast, while lightly dressed organic greens gave a healthful bite.<br />
<br />
Wild sockeye salmon was cured with McKenzie Rye whiskey and spices. It was served with herbed cream cheese, red onions, bourbon pickles, capers, and fresh baked bread – all of which played so well together. One forkful at a time I dreamed of recreating this for a brunch.<br />
<br />
Perhaps channeling said brunch I opted for their Smoked Tomato Bloody Mary. New Amsterdam vodka, tomato juice that was house-smoked, classic bloody seasoning, pickled green beans and a green olive sat over rocks and was quickly consumed.<br />

I had the pleasure of attending a lecture presented by the <a href="http://www.artsandlectures.org/" target="_blank">Rochester Art and Lectures series</a> with guest speaker, Mitchell Davis. Executive vice president of the <a href="http://www.jamesbeard.org/" target="_blank">James Bead Foundation</a> and loaded with a PhD in restaurant reviews, Davis' resumé would make any foodie feel envious and underachieved including former executive editor for the glossy quarterly publication <i>Art Culinaire</i>, participant in the famous James Beard Foundation dinners, directing restaurant reviews for <i>Mobil Travel Guide</i> (now Forbes Travel Guide) and cookbook author. Now, Davis is concentrating his immense comprehension of food culture in America for the <a href="http://expo2015.org/" target="_blank">2015 Expo Milano</a> (Universal Exposition/World's Fair).<br />
<br />
From the official site:<br />
<br />
<i>From May 1 to October 31, 2015, the United States of America will join in welcoming more than 20 million visitors to Expo Milano 2015. For the first time in the history of world’s fairs, the theme of Expo Milano is food: “Feeding the Planet, Energy for Life.” This theme will unite 140-plus countries into action around the challenges and opportunities facing our global food system and the sustainable development of our planet.<br /><br />Expo Milano 2015 is the world’s largest stage to foster dialogue, aggregate ideas, and showcase innovations in food, sustainability, science, industry, economics, entrepreneurship and other elements at the core of American culture.</i><br />
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
With food at the helm, it's an extraordinary undertaking considering how difficult it is to pinpoint one type of cuisine or technique that America is known for, especially in a progressive manner. It's no secret that most of the world typifies Americans and their eating habits by the Golden Arches that loom over our everyday lives. Davis even admits that Expo attendees would be disappointed if the expected Coca-Cola and Big Macs weren't in the lineup. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
But he has other plans in place to represent how far we've come and where we are going as a food culture. Sure there'll be a Thanksgiving meal every Thursday epitomizing the centuries-old tradition preserving turkey's place on the menu, as well as the newer tradition of Sunday brunch. However, it's the forward movement influenced by antecedent traditions of real food cooked at home with real ingredients grown by people – not factory-produced, processed, manufactured, unpronounceable additives – that I truly hope will be emphasized.<br />
<br />
There is so much to be proud of as a nation when it comes to our food culture. We're more than fast-food drive-thrus and extra-large sodas. We're families of generations of farmers. We're curious young chefs eager to put something out never before tasted or seen. We're engineers searching for the best way to sustainably provide to every hungry mouth the most nutritious and delicious foods. We're trailblazers for educating the next generation that what we put in our bodies effects how our bodies react (i.e. excess sugar). We're sharers who want to pass around recipes and post photos of food through social media.<br />
<br />
If there was one point that stuck with me from Davis' lecture it was this: <i>food is the one thing that unites us globally; everyone has to eat</i>.<br />
<br />
A powerful thought that makes someone like me me feel a little less trite being a food writer and blogger, and something that I truly keep in mind whenever I critique what I'm eating. It's so much more than just a plate of food, or a trip to the grocery store, or a dinner made at home for your family. It's a way of life that touches upon so many aspects from health to pleasure to livelihood (for those who rely on the dining out clientele as a source of income).<br />
<br />
Davis only spoke for an hour, taking us on a journey from his childhood as a young aspiring foodie, to his adolescence as a stage in Paris, to a key player on the world's stage transporting the States to Milan. How we will be seen from a culinary vantage point is his next journey and I for one could not be more excited by the direction that things are going.<br />
