TheCultureTrip.com claims to feature "the best art, food, culture, travel" from around the world. If this is true, Buffalo just made the cut.
Although Top 10 Culinary Experiences For Foodies In Buffalo, NY starts badly, falling into the same-old, same-old wing and 'weck routine, mistakenly referring to beef on 'weck as "hot roast beef sandwiches" (akin to asking for lamb butter rather than a butter lamb), and attributes Buffalo's culinary prowess to the Buffalo Billion (huh?), the top ten list of culinary experiences for foodies in Buffalo represents an acceptably eclectic (albeit very limited) mash-up.
"The mere mention of Buffalo, New York conjures up images of chicken wings and hot roast beef sandwiches. But New York’s Queen City is much more than that. It’s becoming the Empire State’s food city, even earning a spot on National Geographic’s Top 10 Food Cities list. The reason is simple: a $1-billion economic plan is fueling developments in tourism, finance and other sectors, attracting people hungry for change and for food that goes beyond expectation. Here are 10 things every foodie must do when in New York’s second-largest city."
Drum roll please! The top ten are:
Seabar: Beef on Weck Roll
Buffalo Bites: Food Tasting and Historical Walking Tour of East Aurora
Oysters After 9 p.m. at Oshun
