Buffalo Eats

Alli and I really really love East Aurora….there I said it.  As city residents there’s an unnecessary shame in admitting that you really like the suburbs, or at least certain aspects of the suburbs.  No, were not planning on settling down and having 2.5 kids, but the small village of East Aurora is incredibly cozy […]

****Unfortunately since writing this article, Chow Chocolat has closed this location. I’ll admit that I was skeptical when I heard that Chow Chocolat would be opening a new location on Elmwood.  Their brief location at Walden Galleria didn’t work out so well and Elmwood is notorious for such high turn over (plus their Main Street […]

Surrounded by papers and a computer, a young man sips on his coffee while glancing over a textbook. Dressed in a nice salmon button down shirt and jeans, he sighs and puts away the book in order to relax and enjoy the last couple sips of coffee before heading back to class. Most college students […]

Note from Donnie: In case you didn’t notice yesterday, we’ve added a new voice to Buffalo Eats’s staff and we are very excited.  Lisa Stachura is currently a student at Canisius College and will be writing a bunch of different articles that range from restaurant reviews to features about food issues/trends on a local and […]

When I heard that Delish was going to move to Amherst St. this summer I was excited to see another cool foodie spot joining the up and coming Black Rock area.  However, unless I was in the area, I couldn’t think of why I would go out of my way to make a stop (other […]

On Buffalo Rising and Buffalo Spree, they’ll occasionally have previews of restaurants that are about to open.  Normally, we don’t do that but last weekend we found ourselves sitting in what used to be Comfort Zone Cafe on Elmwood.  Comfort Zone left about 2 weeks ago and the day after they left, Ashker’s moved in.  […]

Restaurant Type: Cafe Cuisine: Cafe/Coffee House, Breakfast Prices: everything under 10$ Location: West Side During one of our many trips to the Barkyard (a great Dog Park) last summer, Alli noticed this tiny little cafe on Porter.  Considering Morning Glory has just some lettering on their windows and a very small OPEN sign, I’m not […]

Restaurant Type: Sit Down Cafe Cuisine: Cafe/ Coffee Shop, Vegan/Vegetarian Price: Under $10 When I first started working in Allentown, Cafe 59 was my escape from greasy Chicken Finger Subs at Jim’s Steakout and endless slices of Pizza for lunch.  I needed a place that offered zero fried foods to help me from ballooning out […]

When I first started working in Allentown, I had yet to try any of the restaurants in the area.  So, Alli and I made our way down Allen and checked them off one by one, and one of our last visits was to Quaker Bonnet Eatery.  We really weren’t that impressed with our meal, it […]

After viewing a picture posted by Merge’s twitter account of what looked like a delicious Nutella crepe at the newly opened Sweet_ness 7 Cafe, Alli and I quickly made up our mind for what we were eating that weekend; we were getting crepes.  It was basically a no-brainer.  I love Nutella, whipped cream, and bananas […]
