In this episode of "The Jiffy Audio Newsletter Podcast," I’m beginning a new journey: an odyssey to find the coziest spots in upstate New York.
But before I can begin, I receive guidance from Maria M. Silva, a reporter for the Times Union and someone who knows all about cozy restaurants. Her cozy map of Hudson Valley restaurants for the Times Union proved to be a crucial resource in my initial research.
We chat about what it takes for a restaurant to be truly cozy, how to make a map the whole community can use, and why I may or may not be in a feud with the Times Union.
It's very cozy! Be sure to check out Maria's recently-updated map here: https://www.timesunion.com/projects/hudsonvalley/cozy-restaurants-fireplaces/
