I can taste the salt already, Paminski! I once went to ArtPark, and later ate a charming place in Lewiston, NY named “Amanda’s.” They had an “International Beer Night,” with FREEEEEEE all you can eat wings, with $2 beers until 9PM. The wings were so hot, you had to chug beers to put out that fire. I don’t know how Amanda survived, unless the price of beer skyrocketed after 9PM. I don’t know the area well enough to know where this place was, truthfully. All I know is … it was near Art Park, somewhere in Lewiston, probably not too far off Rt. 104. But this was an eternity ago. Place is probably closed. Man, those were tasty wings!

The best beer I had in the area was Canadian, I must confess. We went up to that Maple Leaf Village area and drank at a bar called ‘Rumours.’ Nice place, actually. Right across from “Ripley’s Believe it or Not(TM).” We stumbled back over the Rainbow bridge to the U.S., by that Rainbow Mall. I think there was a $0.50 fee to get back into the U.S., over the pedestrian bridge. The Customs Inspectors just laughed at us. “Went to go get the ‘good beer,’ didja?” I liked the Rainbow Mall. Nice foodcourt! Nice Winter Garden!

Brendan – I always found Santora’s to be a little soft. I like my wings a little crispier. The Anchor Bar is the original, so you can’t go wrong. Dive bars serve the best wings generally. Honestly, wings are just as good in Atlanta now. I prefer Taco Mac to almost anywhere. For a Buffalo original you can’t get here, go to Charlie the Butcher for a beef on weck instead. It is freshly carved roast beef on a kimmelweck roll.

Chris, enjoyed the Pavelec item.

WBF, do they still have “Frank and Theresa’s Anchor Bar” on Main St. in Buffalo? That’s where they told me to go for wings in Buffalo. That, or Santoras Pizza and Wings. Or something called “Bocce?” I probably massacred that spelling.

I understand that you can get the world’s best ice cream in Buffalo, too. It’s called “Perry’s Ice Cream.” Hey, no wonder it’s easy to be overweight in Buffalo. Snowed in for six months, with nothing but Pizza, Wings, and the world’s best ice cream. (When people say they ‘died and went to Heaven,’ maybe they meant eating in Buffalo, NY?) I guess the only way to take off the poundage is to walk Goat Island at Niagara Falls. Or do that 1/4 mile trek to the bottom of Whirlpool State Park, off Rt. 104, in Niagara Falls. I don’t know how late Skylon Tower is open, but having dinner there is an EXPERIENCE!! You stare directly into the HEART of the Horseshoe Falls, from the Canadian side. The view … is breathtaking. There’s a reason why it’s the Honeymoon capital of the World.

Hey WBF good call on Duffs. My wife is from the B-lo and my one trip there so far included Duffs on the agenda. Looking forward to the game this weekend, it always gets interesting around here when the Thrash play the Sabres.

Report from Buffalo is that Vanek is now likely a ‘go’ for Sat. night, and possibly even their Fri. game.

Watched the Buffalo v. Detroit game last night on VS and Buffalo was relentless and made Detroit look terrible. Thrash will have their hands full to be certain.
