The Taste of Buffalo
The Taste Of Buffalo is the second largest food festival in the United States. It began in 1984 and now attracts almost 300,000+ patrons annually.
This year, Taste is moving from Main Street to Niagara Square and Delaware Avenue. With City Hall as a backdrop, you'll find restaurants, beverage tents and entertainment almost all the way to Chippewa Street. Enjoy the ample elbow room the new location provides as you sample old favorites and new tastes from many of Buffalo and Western New York's favorite restaurants.
More than 150 culinary specialties will be served by WNY's best restaurants in "taste size" portions. All items are priced between 50 cents and $3.50. And there will be an exclusive children's area with special entertainment and activities including clowns and an interactive playground.
Whatis going to be on the plate? Well, we think itis safe to assume the fare will be at least as good and very likely even better than last yearis offerings: Orazio's King Crab Corn Chowder, Lafayette Tap Roomis Zesty BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwich, Red Coach Innis Coconut and Toasted Almond Shrimp, Pearl Street Grill and Breweryis Six-Cheese Bow-tie Pasta, Carmine's Crab Cake Stuffed Shrimp, Gagster's Zucchini Supreme, Thai Bistrois Fried Ice Cream, The Steeris NY Strip Steak Aupoive over Mashed Potatoes, and Arcadian Estate Wineryis Black Raspberry Slushie.
A little less than 3.5 weeks left to diet. Saturday, July 9: 11am - 9pm Sunday, July 10: 11am - 7pm

From b-movies to Mystic Motion
Through our b-movie madness night (Sundays*), we've been introducing people to the New Phoenix Theatre on Johnson Park.

At one point it was a lecture hall for Buffalo Seminary. Then it became a séance house before becoming a soup kitchen. Eventually the building, like so many others in Buffal … - Yesterday, 3:44pm

Ukrainian Club delivers promise of cabbage rolls
Once upon a time, the only place to get a good cabbage roll was at a peasant's home in an Eastern European village. Around since the 1930's, the Ukrainian-American Civic Center, one of the oldest operating ethnic clubs in the area, has served the social welfare needs of immigrant families.
My family was one of them.
Many dances, weddings and holiday events have been held in the hall. I have a glorious picture of my grandmother decked out in an eerie Santa-like formal gown.
