Don't you love when local people are on national television? Well, another local restaurateur will be featured on the Food Network this week and they're taking on a heavyweight!

A local favorite has landed on New York Upstate's best reviewed restaurants of 2018.

You know that feeling, you're watching television or a movie and someone mentions "Albany," "Schenectady," or another place in the Capital Region and it's so cool to see. Well, coming up on one of my favorite channels, you'll be able to see a local restauranteur try and take home the win for the 518!

There are so many great restaurants in the Capital Region but if you want to step away from your standards, take a look at these options!
