What's Hot 'n Not
Outhouse Orchards
By: Sharon Kennedy
Published: September 21, 2006
It’s not the ripe, juicy flesh of a just-picked McIntosh apple that is most vivid in my mind after a recent trip to Outhouse Orchards in North Salem; nor is it the peaceful feeling of standing in the picturesque orchard, shiny red orbs dotting the emerald leaves. It’s not even the sheer bliss of biting into a freshly-baked sugar doughnut, insides still steaming. Rather, what remains most clear about my outing are the crazed calls of the wild-eyed roosters running rampant ‘round the property, seemingly confused as to what constitutes “daybreak.”

When I first expressed an interest in visiting the Kisco Kosher Deli and Restaurant, I don’t think I realized what I was getting myself into with co-workers.

What's Hot 'n Not
La Provence
By: Sharon Kennedy
Published: August 04, 2006
Sometimes the establishments that have been around for 30 years can be the hot finds for people new to White Plains. Case in point: La Provence, a charming restaurant on the 4th floor of Bloomingdale’s (175 Bloomingdale Road). Who knew such a delightful discovery was tucked behind the stacks of Persian and Oriental rugs?

What's Hot 'n Not
Ambadi
By: Sharon Kennedy
Published: July 13, 2006
After a long day, sometimes I wish I could pick up something quick for dinner other than pizza or wonton soup. So why haven’t I noticed Ambadi (141 East Post Road), low-cost Indian fare right under my nose for over a year and a half? My friend Todd and I first discovered the joint on our way back from La Fonda Paisa for some oatmeal drinks. When the smell of curry hit us from the street, we both did double takes—Todd because he adores Indian food (“the spicier the better”) and me when I realized that Ambadi is right across the street from Bengal Tiger (an upscale Indian restaurant). Two Indian establishments in such close proximity? Seemed odd. Only later did it strike me how it was actually quite natural.
