bluecashew Kitchen Pharmacy, a new store on Rhinebeck's Montgomery Row, held a gala opening on Saturday, November 7. The culinarily ambitious, both pros and amateurs, were eager to check out the latest wrinkles in bakeware, cookbooks, electronics, dinnerwear, linens—no matter what ails your kitchen and/or dining room, "pharmacists" Gregory Triana and Sean Nutley have the cure. Guests nibbled tasty savories, including little squares of pizza from Gigi Trattoria, just across the street, and delicious bite-size cookies and cupcakes from a new caterer, {encode="karen@mercuryproductions.tv" title="Karen Tarlofsky"}'s Mad Cravings.
