At the Hotel Kinsley, Zak Pelaccio and Taavo Somer (of NYC’s iconic Freemans) have pulled off the seemingly impossible: They’ve managed to create a restaurant that’s buzzy, impeccably styled, and yet, somehow, feels laid back and unpretentious.

17. Ship to Shore
Our favorites at Ship to Shore include specials like the three cheeseburger with pork belly and the Chef’s Burger with Hudson Valley foie gras. The secret behind the flavor-packed foie gras burger is in the preparation. “We caramelize it into the burger so that the fat of the fois gras melts right into the beef,” Read more... -

Polish-inspired small plates are the ethos as Jonathan and Patty Rich’s cozy Kingston spot with indoor and outdoor seating. Sip skin-contact wine alongside dishes like summer borscht, vegan pierogi, and kielbasa kebabs.
