• Commented on Disappearing farmland: An issue for One Region Forward

  Sorry for the typos....
• Commented on March Against Monsanto - Buffalo
  I will certainly regret discussing this topic here, in this forum, but it needs to be clarified that a GMO is not the same thing as selective breeding, which seems to be the misunderstanding happening here in the comments section....
• Commented on A Farm Dinner for the ages...
  It is my understanding that the Oles family has plenty of insurance but this particular barn was not included in their longstanding policy as the use of it was a more recent undertaking....
• Commented on A Farm Dinner for the ages...
  Several fundraisers for the Oles family are on the roster in addition to Aroma's very generous farm event- 50% of total sales at Bistro Europa this Friday and Saturday will be gifted to the family. Also Shango's mixer tonight with...
• Commented on Don't Believe What People Tell You About Your City
  travelman, I couldn't agree with you more. I am not a native Buffalonian, but love this city more than I could have ever imagined loving my hometown of Seattle. I once thought it was my goal to convince outsiders to...
• Commented on Butterwood Opens for Business
  The chef is Scott Donhauser. Any good business person knows that creating vibrant environments attracts more business, so having multiple restaurants offering a variety of services and products in one place makes good sense. This is why fast food joints...
• Commented on room2
  I love this little shop and am glad to have a place downtown where I can find cool and unique gifts. Certainly it is smaller than their stunning Hertel Ave showroom, but it's a neat option for Lafayette guests and...
• Commented on Helium Balloons Buffalo's Comedy Scene
  I love Becker's passion and drive. We work together when she acts as a judge for us once a season at Nickel City Chef. I didn't know her at all before that, but in the four seasons we've worked together...
• Commented on Fox News: Top US revival cities worth visiting
  We have several year-round farm-to-table restaurants, including Bistro Europa, Carmelo's and Trattoria Aroma. Dozens of others utilize a variety of locally raised ingredients....
• Commented on A Market is Born. Now Where are the Banks?
  I don't think they are going for a church bazaar feel, but rather an authentic artisan market similar to Oxbow, Ferry Building, Pike Place, etc. More than tables is required. While I was a strong supporter of Newell' s proposal...
• Commented on A Market is Born. Now Where are the Banks?
  May be a little late for that since there is a 30,000 square foot artisan food market going in at the Canal......

• Commented on Common Council to Food Trucks: Don't Move!
  If you want to see this movement grow, or, if you simply feel these trucks have the right to be mobile, it is important that you make your voice heard. You can contact council members using the info located here:...
• Commented on BECHS Teams Up With The Roaming Buffalo Food Truck
  Let us not forget that good food at a good price reigns supreme. Crappy food trucks will go out of business (and there are a few of them) just as fast as crappy restaurants. If your brick and mortar establishment...
• Commented on BECHS Teams Up With The Roaming Buffalo Food Truck
  If people really love food trucks and want to be sure they have the choice to frequent them, they can continue to support them with money, but calling your councilmember wouldn't hurt either. Just today the council voted to (according...
• Commented on Buffalo's Bounty Delivered To Toronto
  There are many things that can and should be done to improve tourism in the greater Buffalo/Niagara regions. But, I am pleased to say that the in all of my endeavors, Ed Healy, Pete Burakowski and the staff at the...
• Commented on Name that Food Shack!
  Is this just a temporary food option to fulfill people's desire to eat while construction is in progress?...
• Commented on Cantina Loco
  I couldn't agree with you more, Boss. The Mexican-influenced offerings currently available at SeaBar bode well for this venture, and anyone who is expecting to find the slop served at 99.9% of Buffalo's well-known "Mexican" restaurants have no idea what...
• Commented on Buffalo. For Real.
  I think the Palladium Boots/Detroit series is a better example of what could be done to showcase the Buffalo I know and love. Everything that is accomplished here is done on a grassroots level by people undeterred by the lack...

  I believe the Williamsville Aroma location has a woodfire oven....
• Commented on Vera Pizzeria Delivers The Goods
  I'm guessing you haven't been to Bistro Europa, The Wine Thief, Tabree or Blue Monk? What about India Gate or Saigon Cafe? All fun, some of which offer "authentic" in certain preparations (if authentic is a genuine modifier you use...
• Commented on Vera Pizzeria Delivers The Goods
  Are you referring to HOD? It's been on Elmwood all this time--and it's been exceptionally successful. It has simply moved up the street....
• Commented on Vera Pizzeria Delivers The Goods
  I didn't forget Aroma, Boss, I was just mentioning places that hadn't been discussed in the comment thread already. A woodfire oven is not the only component required to make an authentic Neapolitan-style pizza (http://www.usatoday.com/news/world/2004-05-26-pizza-rules_x.htm), and Neapolitan pizzas are not...
• Commented on Vera Pizzeria Delivers The Goods
  I won't offer an opinion here, but it should be noted that pizza cooked in a woodfire oven can be had at several locations in the immediate area (also leaving an opinion out regarding the quality of said pizzas). Woodfire...
• Commented on Cafe 59 crafts a new image in line with Allentown
  Imagine a restaurant/cafe where the owner appears to like both food and people? Who knew such a thing was possible? Glad to see some new life being breathed into the restos that share this corner....
• Commented on When is Enough Enough?
  The former Sweet Tooth space has been split in two recently. I imagine we'll see that space rented more easily now....
• Commented on 99 Fast Food Restaurant
  I eat here at least once a week. The staff are very friendly and quick to learn your order if you visit often. Love the pho served with raw beef, though the portion is too huge to finish on my...
• Commented on Buffalo Snow Globes Are Back for the Holidays
  Wow. We look forward to giving one of these to my MIL every year for her birthday. We have remained diligent despite ongoing issues with the globes' production delays. We were happy to hear that The Floristry was on tap...
