I put this in network-wide to encourage our fellow North Americans to come visit.
Anyhow, if you’ve never been, part of Delaware Ave and Niagara Square gets shut down for a weekend-long festival. Live music and over 50 restaurants with booths set up offering their best 4 dishes in sample size, competing for best dish in various categories. You buy a bunch of tickets and walk around sampling all sorts of goodness.
Gotta love Buffalo. Last year’s People’s Choice award (aka best of show as chosen by the people, not judges) was BEER CHEESE SOUP. MMMM beer and cheese…
We usually have a bunch af canadian friends down for additional drinking and fun.
Only one this year Not that i’m complaining… have you ever tried to cram 8 or 9 canadians and their kids into a 4 BR house…
Edit: This year I might try the food instead of spending all my money on cheap refills @ club W
Damn, im gonna be there next weekend wit some friends to shop and party, was actually there a month ago with some buddies on our way to NYC. our plane was canceled and we were stuck in Buffalo, ended up having quite a time partying it up on chippewa street, good bars.
If the weather is nice I’ll have to check it out, however they really do mean a “taste” of everything. We spent $40 on food there last year and had to stop for dinner on the way home.
I did the man vs. food thing. I beat the buzzer, but the guy next to me ate 7 wings in 50 seconds so I lost . They were cold and gross, I am not sure how he pulled it off.
