The Hudson Valley has a new dining option in the form of a Hardee's. As reported last fall, plans were underway to open a new location on Ulster Avenue in Kingston. Opening day has arrived. 

Only this opening day is all about cheeseburgers and french fries instead of baseball bats and balls.

The Kingston Hardee's opened in style, Hudson Valley News Network reports they gave the first 50 people in line on opening day free food for a full year. I wish I'd heard about this sooner.
