7 Amazing “Bucket List” Meals in the Hudson Valley

We all have our favorite restaurants, but what about a favorite meal? If you could only dine out one more time in the Hudson Valley... where would you go and what would you order?

In a recent poll, Hudson Valley diners (that would be people who dine out, not physical diner restaurants) were asked to choose their very last restaurant meal. The answers ranged across counties and tastes.

Luckily, we have many amazing restaurants in our beautiful corner of New York. From award-winning pizzerias to high-class and Michelin-starred kitchens, whatever your style, there's a "last meal" just waiting for you.

Another popular (and no longer possible) answer was the prime rib from the Red Brick Tavern in Rosendale, NY. Others bemoaned the removal of the blackened steak salad from Cosimo's menu. So what about meals you can still order?
