As promised, here are my top 10 product recommendations from Garden Gate Delivery in Ithaca, NY (in no particular order). For you meat-eaters, you’ll have to forgive my vegetarian bias. I hear the meats are amazing, too.

1. Milk from Evans’: this stuff is unreal. Especially the non-homogenized stuff.
2. Pika’s Quiche is excellent- buttery crust and lots of nice flavor in the egg-part. The goat cheese spinach is my fave. Great for a quick, no-fuss meal. One is enough for 2 servings.
3. Butter from Evans’: this stuff is so good that it just got some attention from the New York Times. I tried it in some cookies I made. Those cookies never tasted better!
4. Chocolate chip cookies from Blue Wave Pastry rock my world. Is it bad if I eat 5 cookies in one day? Probably. These are a staple of my weekly orders.
5. Yogurt from Evans’ is amazing. If you’ve never had cream-on-top yogurt before, now’s the time to try it. It’s the real deal.
6. Chèvre from Lively Run is spectacular. It’s great on pasta or pizza.
7. Raviolis from Raffetto’s in NYC are delicious. Quick, easy meal of homemade pasta. Gorgonzola walnut are great but very rich. Cheese are excellent.
8. Ice cream from Cayuga Lake Creamery is super creamy and homemade tasting. We loved it.
9. Fresh pastas from Little Ithaca are a little pricey but delicious. Cheaper than eating out and more authentic than any other pasta in town.
10. Tofu and tofu kan: can’t go wrong with these and they’re on sale!
