Actually this guy owns two high end restaurants - one in Piermont and the other in Garrison. Great food, great wines, great atmosphere, and GREAT (read HUGE) prices!!!

Kelly was on Iron Chef America the other night agaist Flay but i feel asleep I wonder who won. Maybe Mr Harvey could get down there and show them how to run the place. He can also have good response times for Empress.

You know, with all that amount of rain that's come this year so far, I'd say don't park your car between March and April, possibly May too. Otherwise, that giant flood of rain coming down the Hudson will take it downstream with it!

Couldn't resist

Peter Kelly beat Iron Chef Bobby Flay, but it was close. The "secret ingredient" was cowboy ribeye.
