The Post Star's Saratoga Snippets blog is reporting that there will be a Saratoga and thoroughbred horse racing themed restaurant opening in the Albany Airport next year, operated in a joint venture from Jack's Oyster House and HMS Host. I looked a little further and found the press release from HMS Host regarding this and found out that it will be named Silks Saratoga Bistro and it will be a full service restaurant offering "several of the Oyster House's world famous dishes" as well as Saratoga Brewing Company Beer on tap and large screen televisions showing races from Saratoga throughout the day. No word in the release about what those televisions will show the other 46 weeks of the year, or if there are any plans for betting facilities (that probably involves a lot of hurdles but...if you can bet at the Vegas airport why not Albany's?).
I like this plan and I think Brad Rosenstein of Jack's is a class act so I am looking forward to seeing it completed.
