    a panini is baked bread (hot and crispy) and a sandwich is just bread (room temp and soft)

    The term is actually 'panino', but Americans pronounce it in its pluralized form all of the time, regardless of correct usage.

    The Italian word 'panino' describes a small roll used to make sandwiches. Some are hot and some are cold, but in our culture it has come to mean a sandwich that is made by coating the bread with butter or oil and grilling it under pressure, much like a grilled cheese that is enhanced by the constant pressure of a spatula. Most restaurants have a "panini press" that cooks the sandwich more quickly by applying heat from both sides. Customarily, the ingredients of a panini are of a higher quality than a typical deli sandwich, but as the concept becomes more and more ubiquitous, we're seeing "panini" of various shapes, sizes and quality offered at restaurants of all types.

    Wow - La Marina. Not much good to say about that place, so I won't say anything.

    This is not an article about career opportunities for young people in Buffalo. How can Buffalo claim to be rising if it can't absorb its college graduates? Another article (take an inventory) about buildings or art or retail, nothing about strong business relationships, selling to a national and/or international market, etc.

    I just wasted 30 seconds writing an answer to someone who thinks that Buffalo can rise by opening new restaurants or remodeling apartment buildings. It's about high paying professional jobs.

    Is it true that the Hertel location is downsized and this new adventure is actually a relocation. The new location is a great space, we wish them luck, they have a good reputation to build on.
