5 Things I love about Buffalo
The incredibly friendly people, the huge inventory of beautiful and affordable old houses, the amazing assortment of cultural institutions (especially the zoo!), a white Christmas is almost guaranteed, and no traffic!
My favorite local hidden treasure you shouldn't miss
The annual Garden Walk. You get to see the most incredible private gardens in the Allentown neighborhood, Elmwood Village and the Delaware District.
My perfect day spent in the Buffalo area
Breakfast at Ambrosia at Elmwood and Hodge, shopping at the farmer's market on Bidwell Parkway, a visit to the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, lunch at La Marina and antique shopping on Hertel Avenue in the city's North Park neighborhood, a movie at the Regal Cinema, dinner at Brodo in the Elmwood Village.
