There are always two or more restaurants competing for the best “whatever” in town.
Buffalo is no different as chicken wings are everywhere of course. But a forty-year old battle between Anchor Bar and Duff’s – each claiming to have the best chicken wings in town (debatable), will gain some national attention and will be the featured focus [...]

If City Hall’s plan for enticing developers to rehabilitate the Statler by building an 11-floor parking garage then public policy has not evolved here since the 1950’s. Well, we all know it hasn’t but I still find it hard to believe that anyone so involved in urban development like a mayor’s office of a mid-major [...]

It’s been quite a while since we at BOV have participated in The Session (or anything at all, really, but shh), this this month’s topic seems well timed. The Ferm is hosting, with the topic being The Display Shelf: When to Drink the Good Stuff. Essentially, what do you do with the ’special’ bottles in [...]

In 2008, more than half of the 212 senators and Assembly members won with more than 80 percent of the vote; 57 ran unopposed. [...]

With all due respect, a parking ramp isn’t going to remediate asbestos and otherwise renovate the deteriorating, dead Statler into something usable in the 21st century.
Someone needs to invest maybe $100 million, and in order for that to happen there has to be a reasonable expectation that the project would successfully attract enough [...]
