It's the capital region of New York State, there's bound to be stuff to do here right? Feel free to contribute new entries or adding more information to existing entries.

There actually is a lot of food options in Albany that is harder to get to in Williamstown.
===Dim Sum===
Ocean Palace, located in Albany (take Exit 2E on 87 South to get onto Central Ave) offers a very extensive dim sum menu during weekend brunch times; they also offer a pretty good selection of authentic Chinese dishes, with a strong focus on Cantonese and seafood dishes--the variety of dim sum available outside of weekend brunch is considerably smaller, however.
The place is too small and there's not enough clientele in Albany for them to offer the crazy dim sum carts that you may be used to in big cities, but Ocean Palace is probably the closest you can get to good authentic Chinese food (or Dim Sum, for that matter) when you're sick and tired of Chopsticks or Happy Star.
