Well I got a couple friends coming from Detroit to Buffalo for a weekend and want to show them the sights and also the taste of Buffalo. Probably the weekend of the Nov 6th.

Here is what I am thinking so far in no order:
Falls / Clifton Hill
Cider Mill / Glenn Falls
Anderson’s for beef on weck and loganberry
Duff’s for wings or maybe La Nova for pizza and wings
Albright Knox art gallery

I got some more ideas but figured I would see what you guys would add.

They now want to try some Buffalo micro brews.

And let the jokes roll in.

Don’t go to Anderson’s for beef on weck, go to Kelly’s Korner or Vizzi’s. Anderson’s is big on price and small on meat.
Is there a Bills home game that weekend?

The funny thing is on a weekend tour of Detroit I can make it look like a great place to live.

5

The Anderson’s are family friends plus it is close to Glen Falls if we do the Williamsville location.
I agree that other places might be more of an authentic sandwich though.

Bills are on a bye and the Sabres home game is Friday at 7:30 and we won’t get in until after midnight friday night.

There certainly are enough nice areas around Detroit to make it look appealing, its just after you live there you really start to see its true side.

(Used to live in Detroit so I’m allowed to make fun of it)

Edit: Oh and make sure to take them down any highway or side street and show them how it is possible to build a road in a northern climate that isn’t full of Neon sized potholes every 10 feet. And that we are allowed to make left hand turns :slight_smile:

7

What kind of nightlife are they into? Depending on their scene, go out on Elmwood/Chip/Allen/Transit

8

Haha good point.

9

Shwabl’s for beef on weck…

10

Bar Bill for Beef on Weck and wings!!!

11

Good call on their wings, so much better than overrated Duffs.

12

If you are concerned with proximity to Glenn Falls then go to Charlie the Butchers for the beef.

13

you picked a shitty time of year to try and show off buffalo.

14

Buffalo Zoo, especially the new rain forest exhibit.
Niagara Jet Boats have those covered boats for doing the jet boat ride when it’s not summer.
Buffalo Waterfront/Naval Park
Lots of great parks. A few favs listed in order of distance… Delaware Park, Chestnut Ridge, Letchworth.

Buy a really cheap Audi, roll it on it’s roof at Tifft, leave it there. Always a good time but will get you banned on NYSpeed.

15

Ted’s Hot Dogs!

16

Yea, Duff’s wings are ok… they’re nothing really special though. There are PLENTY out there that are leaps and bounds better.

That’s the one major thing I miss about working in EA… BarBill for lunch on Fridays…

17

You really start to see why WNY is so fat when everyone’s suggestions are about food. :slight_smile:

18

Your cholesterol levels thank you.

19

One thing you can’t Sass buffalo for is the selection and quality of food.

I don’t know about the Zoo though Jay. They really don’t keep it maintained like they used to, and alot of the times most of the animals aren’t even out. the rain forest exhibit is pretty cool though.

Bar Bill for wings and weck, no question.
And while you are in EA you can admire our new brick Main St. while going to Vidler’s.(Too gay?)
