BUFFALO, More

Than

JUST WINGS

By : Chris Hooker

C

HANCES ARE WHEN YOU THINK OF THE CUISINE IN THE REGION OF BUFFALO, TWO WORDS POP INTO YOUR

MIND: CHICKEN WINGS. WITH BLUE CHEESE AND CELERY ON THE SIDE, THE DISH IS INDISPUTABLY THE CITY’S

SIGNATURE MEAL SINCE BEING INVENTED AT THE LEGENDARY ANCHOR BAR, BUT PERFECTED AND HONED AT

RESTAURANTS LIKE DUFF’S AND THE BAR-BILL TAVERN. HOWEVER, IF ONE WERE TO ASK A LOCAL WITH AN

APPETITE ABOUT THEIR FAVORITE FOOD AND DRINK OPTIONS IN THE REGION, DON’T BE SURPRISED IF WINGS AREN’T AT THE TOP OF THE

LIST. TO OUTSIDERS, BUFFALO MAY BE WINGS, WINGS, WINGS, BUT TO REGULARS, THAT DOESN’T EVEN SCRATCH THE SURFACE.
