Fresh Cuts and Expanded Digs
Martin Kemp's '68', a retail, decorative flower and gift shop at 68 Allen Street is now carrying beautiful cut flowers. I had initially thought that the shop would cater to more of the silk varieties, but after a quick run through the other day I was excited to see that there were wonderfully different selections of healthy looking bulbs and cut flowers.
On top of that, Martin has blown out the back wall of the space and installed a fireplace. This once tiny boutique has virtually doubled in size overnight, and has brought a whole other retail element to Allen Street. '68' also specializes in corporate flower arrangements as well as arrangements for the home. '68' is located at 68 Allen Street right next to Fiddleheads Restaurant.

It was a beautiful day for Sunday brunch, so the only choice was a restaurant that still had an open patio, where the food was going to be great.
Betty's it was. Not only was I able to have my Jack Russell terrier tableside next to the short, flower box laden fence, but I got to sit in the sun. The angle was steep for noon, a telling sign of shorter days, and if you don't believe me, look at the shadow the home fries cast.
Betty's is one of those places where you'll run into pe … - Oct 6th, 12:00am

Wasabi: Japanese Flair
There have been many reincarnations at 752 Elmwood Avenue over the past couple of years. Wasabi is the newest restaurant nestled next door to Fowlers Chocolates and right across the street from Spot Coffee. When you enter you are greeted with exposed brick, sleek furniture and a gleaming sushi bar where colorful sashimi sits like little gems in a glass case. It is a small restaurant that can seat 12 at the tables and about 10 at the bar. Sitting at the sushi bar is a treat and ent … - Sep 18th, 7:51am

Edritos Comes to Hertel
The day Edritos opened on Elmwood Avenue several years ago, I was a happy man. I powered down more than my fair share of burritos back in those days. When it moved downtown into the Key Center, I no longer frequented the establishment. I just wasn’t downtown often enough to stop in. But Edritos has moved again, this time to Hertel Avenue between Parkside and Wallace.
My wife and I dropped by for takeout earlier today. I am pleased to report that my burrito was as delicious as … - Sep 14th, 9:24am

Vargas on Niagara
Marcos Vargas has had a slew of restaurant locations around the West Side of Buffalo in his 24 years of doing business here, but the latest move to Niagara Street has got to be the best yet.
Vargas hails from Puerto Rico. Before Buffalo, he had restaurants in New Jersey and on 57th Street in Brooklyn. This is a family business, and customer loyalty is built in, which is one of the reasons Vargas manages to keep his prices so low. You can get your salty/sweet and crunchy craving … - Sep 13th, 12:02pm
