Buffalo Eats

We’ve known about Lockport’s Pizza Oven for a while now. Our friends Alan Bedenko (our go to pizza connoisseur) and Jason Wulf (co-owner of Lake Effect Ice Cream and Lockport resident) both told us that we needed to go out of our way to visit the small pizzeria. But there were a couple problems, the […]

A couple years ago, Alli and I traveled to Williamsville to try out Pizza Plant. Buffalo Eats was still very young and I had just recently found out about their unique pods and craft beer selection. We had a nice meal but ended up taking absolutely horrible pictures (pre-flash iPhone) and never wrote about our […]

Over the years I’ve learned about the delicious world of Lebanese cuisine thanks to my best friend Mike. I wouldn’t consider myself an expert, but I’ve definitely had my fair share of Lebanese food at restaurants and have been lucky enough to enjoy a couple home cooked meals. For those who haven’t visited Byblos or […]

On my lunch breaks I occasionally drive around looking for new places to eat hoping something catches my eye.  Last week I saw a sign on Transit for Chappie’s that was advertising their grand opening.  Now a new pizza place wouldn’t really draw much attention, but I couldn’t remember the last time I went to […]

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 […]

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 […]

Last week I was searching for a restaurant week special to take advantage of during a lunch break with my co-worker Kristina.  After narrowing down the candidates we eventually settled on Campobello’s, a red-sauce Italian restaurant in East Amherst off of Transit.  Hidden in the same plaza as another lunch favorite, Jonny C’s and Mighty […]

Over the last two weeks we have had a couple of lunches that were good enough to mention on this site, however; both meals were a only a small sampling from their respective restaurants and with our busy schedule and desire to always try something new, I don’t think we’ll be revisiting soon enough to […]

The words “Bistro” and “South Buffalo” don’t often go together, but just last week Brick Oven Bistro & Deli opened their doors on Abbott Road.  In an area of Buffalo mostly known for good pub food (Wings, Burgers, Fish Fries), it’s refreshing to see someone trying something new.  I first heard about Brick Oven Bistro […]

When a restaurant is only open 6 hours a day, has limited parking and only takes cash, they better have good food to make up the fact that it might be a struggle for people to dine there.  La Hacienda in Niagara Falls is only available for dinner from 4pm to 10pm (except for Tuesdays […]
