In 2023, the Hudson Valley saw a wide variety of different new restaurants that opened their doors.

Recently, a New Paltz, NY fan favorite, Mexican grill, expanded and opened a second location. A Kingston, NY restaurant also opened a second location within Ulster County, NY as well.

Brazilian and ukrainian flavors spiced up the streets in Dutchess County, NY with their new location. An Italian eatery expanded to their second location within Orange County, NY.

As all of these new Hudson Valley businesses have brought something different to the table, the newest restaurant in our area is focusing on something different.

Take a Tour of Sullivan County, NY's Newest Underground Salt Cave

Crystal Connection is a 1890's antique, Methodist church located in Sullivan County, NY. This is a crystal lover's dream come true.

It's known for being 

"One of the largest Crystal & Mineral destinations on the Northeast." 

While this may be a place that some people gather often, others can refer to it as a hidden gem in the Hudson Valley.  Crystal Connection can also be described as 

"a sacred space & crystal haven"

I have never experienced anything similar to Crystal Connection before. The amount of crystals, crystal jewelry, singing bowls, sage and more are fascinating. Crystal Connection also hosts different events and fairs throughout the year.
