It's official, we have sold our North Utica, NY, home and we now reside in Derby, NY. There are many things I'm going to miss about my second favorite city in New York, Utica. Mainly, I'm really going to miss feasting on the chicken riggies, greens, and tomato pie that are a staple of Central NY cuisine.

My former boss in Utica, Eric Meier took to reddit and got the answer I was NOT looking for. It is possible to find similar Utica style foods near Buffalo, but not the exact items that I'll crave for years to come.

If you'd like to know what Central New Yorkers enjoy eating and what Western NY is missing out on, check out this post from Eric and if you think you can whip up a quality batch of chicken riggies, I'll be right over!
