Hudson Valley Food Scene Gets ‘Cheesy’ New Addition

With the start of a new year, the Hudson Valley has already said goodbye to some eateries while new restaurants have opened

An Ulster County, NY town was sad to see one of their favorite restaurants close their doors. However, a new pet friendly wash is now open in Narrowsburg, NY.

Coming up this year, a new sushi and seafood buffet will open in Orange County, NY.

Recently, a cheese lover's dream has come true in Ulster County, NY. Locals don't have to travel far to get mouthwatering grilled cheese style sandwiches and more.

Cheese Lovers Rejoice: New Eatery Opens In Ulster County, NY

I'm a huge cheese lover. From mozzarella to brie, burrata, cheddar and blue, it would be hard for me to choose just a few favorites. 

The ideal meal each day would consist of some sort of cheese to create a perfect balance. Other Hudson Valley residents who also love cheese can rejoice with me.

Ulster County, NY is now the home to a super cheesy eatery.

According to WRRV, this new restaurant has a story to tell.

"In addition to serving as a Ghost Kitchen for Mr. Beast Burger, Smash Shack also worked in collaboration with the crew at Mexican Kitchen after a devastating fire destroyed the business in 2022, serving up some Mexican Kitchen classics in-house as Cocina Mexicana.

 

Now, the New Paltz community is anxiously awaiting a new business to open their doors in the once Taco Shack turned Smash Shack turning... Melted."

This new restaurant is ready to serve the community their grilled cheese style sandwiches. They also have salads, soups and sides as well. 

Melted shared, 

"Thank you for the love and support yesterday on our opening day! We are open today from 12:00PM to 8:00PM! We are happy to hear feedback and answer any questions you may have, please just send us a message."

Melted also has a kid menu and dessert options as well.

Personally, I would indulge in their Fa-Get About It Melt which includes fresh mozzarella with parmesan cheese, fire roasted peppers, basil pesto and balsamic glaze. Throw in some fries and an orange soda and I'm happy.
