Moro’s Table in Auburn: A Guru Review.

With this restaurant review I want to introduce a new feature called “Guru Reviews” (I know, I’m so creative). This is the first of many reviews and there are a few things you’ll get: the essence of the restaurant, the experience and whether it’s Guru Approved or not (the important part). There’s a real lack of old school restaurant reviews around here but Syracuse Guru is about keeping it real, so that’s what I’m gonna do. Let’s go.

It’s a Wonderful Run: Seneca Falls 5k.

Now I know that my articles usually involve gaining weight but here’s something to make up for it. On Saturday, December 10th in Seneca Falls there’s a great 5k run/walk going on called “It’s a Wonderful Run”.
