Chus On Chow

We are David and Lonnie Chu, food enthusiasts who live in Syracuse, NY, but who will travel in search of good food, good coffee and interesting restaurants. We each have other blogs (Assonance and Walkable Eastwood) but we’ve found ourselves writing so often about food that we thought we’d create a dedicated food blog.

While we end up dining and therefore reporting most often on good eats in the Syracuse area, we will keep you informed of what we find anywhere we go, primarily in upstate New York. This area is beginning to see something of a renaissance after years of decline, with many interesting projects popping up all over the place.  One of particular interest is the Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor, with its 234 municipalities linked by the Erie, Champlain, Cayuga-Seneca, and Oswego Canals and Cayuga and Seneca Lakes.  We figure there’s at least one dining adventure awaiting us in each town.

We look forward to learning from you, too! We welcome comments and hope to be directed to a few great meals in the process.  Bon appetit! ¡Buen provecho! Enjoy!
