Food Porn: Sushi Time

I’ve driven by Sushi Time countless times and I can’t say I ever felt a strong urge to visit the restaurant. A combination of the lackluster exterior and the generic name didn’t really entice me to try it out. But Alli and I decided to visit the restaurant for lunch last week in the busy […]

Quick Bites: Billamy’s BBQ & Elmo’s

UPDATE: Billamy’s has since closed. There have been a lot of new restaurants opening recently in WNY and it’s been hard to keep track of them all. Billamy’s BBQ opened earlier this year on Hertel Ave. On a rare day off, Alli and I decided to go somewhere new for lunch, we happened to drive […]

Food Porn: Rocky’s Indian Restaurant

We throw the word ‘foodie’ around a lot on this website but we still have a long way to go and a lot of cuisines that we still need to try. We’ve visited over 325 restaurants but we’ve only have two Indian restaurants on our site. I’d like that to change, so I plan on […]

Food Porn: John & Mary’s (Getzville)

While they don’t spend the advertising dollars that Mighty Taco or Jim’s Steakout do, John & Mary’s have locations in almost every suburb and are one of the most popular restaurant chains in Buffalo. The business started in 1951 with John and Mary Guida in Cheektowaga and has steadily increased over time as new generations of the […]

Quick Bites: Byblos Restaurant & Bar, Besta Pizza

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 […]

Food Porn: Chinese Cookery

Last month I visited a couple Chinese restaurants, trying narrow down my favorite take out “Chinese” place for lunch.  I didn’t try any mind blowing dishes, and while I had a some tasty dishes here and there, neither place really won me over.  So my search continued, and I eventually ended up at Chinese Cookery […]

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).  […]

Food Porn: Nina’s Custard

I didn’t need to look online or even ask any co-workers about Nina’s Custard before I finally decided to try it out for lunch, somehow I knew exactly what the food and atmosphere was going to be like.  My initial expectation was Anderson’s but with a “mom and pop” vibe, which is exactly what I […]

Food Porn: Sun Garden

In the last 6 months I’ve went out of my way to find the best places for lunch that are within driving distance from my office.  Surprisingly there’s a decent selection of restaurants that are within a 10 minute drive, covering a wide range of cuisines and price points.  I’ve noticed there are a surprising […]

Food Porn: Wok 28

Since I started working in the Northtowns almost 5 months ago, I’ve tried a lot of new restaurants on my lunch breaks.  During that time I’ve had some really good pizza, an awesome burger and a good sample of many other cuisines.  But for some reason or another I’ve managed to avoid the half dozen […]
