Buffalo Eats

For those who weren’t lucky enough to make it to the Nickel City Chef competition on April 11th, you would have missed Nickel City Chef Krista Van Wagner of Lackawanna’s fine restaurant Curly’s facing off against new comer Andrew Nuernburger of East Aurora’s historic The Roycroft Inn.  Their special ingredient they had to use was [...]

This summer we at Buffalo Eats are going to try and visit as many ice cream stands as possible.  We have covered of few dessert shops and ice cream parlors, but there are many many more out there.  With summer approaching, we can hopefully give some readers a new location to bring their kids or [...]
