In case you missed it, we’ve been posting links to WGRZ’s 10 Favorite Restaurants of WNY video series all week. I was fortunate enough to be included in their “panel of experts” alongside Chef Mike Andrzejewski (SeaBar, Cantina Loco), Krista Van Wagner (Curly’s), Nina Barone (BuffaloFoodie.com) and Danny Gare. We each submitted our own top [...]

Food Porn: Dash’s Market (Williamsville)
I grew up in the Southtowns, so until a couple years ago I had no idea about Dash’s Market or that it was even a local chain of grocery stores. I work near the Williamsville location on West Klein, which reminds me of a “mom and pop” Wegmans, with a cafe area offering all sorts [...]
Quick Bites: Pizza Amore and Lake Effect Ice Cream
Pizza Amore isn’t technically a “food truck” but instead a trailer that has been converted to a mobile wood-fire pizza oven. The trailer is run by the Perri family of Grand Island. Though they have been around since June 2011, they have recently started to park in front of the First Niagara Center in downtown [...]

Food Porn: Koi Sushi
On a spontaneous weekday lunch, some coworkers and I we were in the mood for sushi and figured we’d try Koi Sushi since it was still on our “to try” list (it’s actually surprising how many sushi restaurants are in Getzville/East Amherst). We sat down and were handed their checklist-style lunch menu (pictured in gallery). [...]
Buffalo Foodies: Chef Kevin O’Connell Jr
Today we are excited to have Chef Kevin O’Connell Jr from O’Connell’s American Bistro as our newest Buffalo Foodie. Just recently we visited his restaurant as part of Local Restaurant Week and his offering during that week was one of the best we’ve seen since we started Buffalo Eats. Not only is his restaurant serving [...]
Eat It Up: Episode 16 – SJ and Ben from Buffalo.com
In case you haven’t noticed over the last year or so, we are pretty tight with the Buffalo.com team. Not only have we collaborated with them on videos and our new podcast, but I’ve generally became good friends with SJ and Ben T. Whether it was trying to eat as much pizza as possible or [...]
