Mmm delicious! I wish I had one right now.
Don't tell my boss I said that.

And they have been working on re-opening The Place. I hear its almost ready.
the rumor about the Place opening up again has been going on for the last 23 months......Boomerangs (which is essentially the Place II) over on Niagara has the real deal with the T&J's.....Spaten on tap as well to wash them down.
Coles has Tom and Jerry's although I cannot vouch for the taste seeing that I didn't drink them when I was there.
This does sound delish! I've been to Torches for dinner and hands down is one of the best spots in Buffalo. The staff and owners are incredibly friendly and knowledgable.... Can't wait to try a Tom & Jerry!
I think Scwabels are great but its 10 miles away. Cole's aren't anything like theirs, their really gross. I heard boomerangs are good.
Ive been hearing the place is reopening for over a year now. Anyone have any solid news on this or all just rumors?
These drinks sound & look much better than they actually taste. They are fairly vile (think of rubbing alcohol mixed with hot water & nutmeg). Be careful at Cole's, the egg whites "break" all the time & devolve into a sloppy mess.
zen,
I couldn't agree with you more, hence the title of the piece. The first few times I tasted a Tom & Jerry I thought the drink was foul and that Buffalo had fallen for the biggest hoax ever. I assure you that Torches is using a good recipe and their Tom & Jerry is more than worth the trip to Kenmore Avenue all on its own- though the food is equally fantastic.
I live/own in the City and according to various routes on Google maps, Torches is 10-12 miles from my house. You underestimate the city limits. I understand Schwabl's is in W. Seneca but you can't call one place "just too far" and then encourage travel to another place just as far. Either rename this site Elmwood Rising or tag these posts "read only if you're within walking distance."
Anyways, I love how you get to keep the mug -- I'd stop in just for that.
that sounds delicious. i've been meaning to get to Torches anyway. have they been doing some renovations in front?
I'm not sure if a "Tom & Jerry" is my thing- but 5 stars to Torches chefs and staff! I've been there for dinner twice and on both occasions it has exceeded my expectations!
