The idea for this blog all started one day while sitting around the Mannix Marketing lunch table. Being the foodies that we are, we found ourselves constantly talking about one of our greatest loves - FOOD! We'd exchange our latest recipes, discuss delicious restaurants we visited, and traded tips and tricks we've learned in the kitchen. Our collaboration of ideas led us to start the Glens Falls Gourmet Blog! If it's about food in Upstate NY, you can trust that we've got it covered. From quick and easy recipes, to restaurant reviews to coupons and food events in the area- The Glens Falls Gourmet has it all. Take a look around and don't forget to follow us for all the latest and greatest party ideas, healthy eating advice, videos, contests and more! Glens Falls Gourmet - So good you can't help but come back for seconds.

Before you fire up the grill, make sure it is really clean. Most of us have those wire brushes which do help a bit, but they don't get the grill totally clean.
Tip for cleaning your grill: Cut a large onion or a lemon in half. I would suggest wearing gloves if you are worried about getting dirty. Rub down your grill surface with the cut side until all the black is off. Wipe it with a paper towel and VOILA, your grill is both clean and seasoned! I tried the lemon for the first time last summer and it worked great! I'm going to try the onion next. Give it a try and let me know what you think! Feel free to share your tips & tricks too!

Deb Castellucci is happy to share food related tips & tricks, recipes, favorite restaurants and ideas for entertaining and more! I'm happy to share what I have learned over the years and look forward to learning more from my Glens Falls neighbors! I grew up in the Glens Falls area and I know that there are tons of fellow foodies out there who would love to share what they know too! Feel free to contact me here or like us our Glens Falls Gourmet Facebook page to see daily posts!
Mary Longley Beside cooking being my middle name, most people call me Mary. My cooking experience started out of necessity, and with lots of successes and not so successful gourmet delights, I learned to be a little creative with some foods and found things that stay consistently on my list. Spending time in the kitchen is therapy for me and entertaining to share the successes. I look forward to sharing some of my creativity with everyone.
