Last week we talked about some of the best little food towns that are worth exploring in the Empire State, one of the many being the waterfront beauty that is Skaneateles. A favorite destination to visit out in the Finger Lakes, this small town is home to a variety of restaurants that draw in visitors from all over the state. But if there’s one restaurant that everybody’s heard of in town, it’s Skaneateles’ amazing fish fry that’s been open for over thirty years.

Home to a population of roughly 7,000 residents, the town of Skaneateles sits right on the northern shore of one of New York's most stunning bodies of water.
