What I Miss about Buffalo, Part III

There are former Buffalonians all over the United States, and one of the common things I've noticed is how much they miss certain aspects of Buffalo. This is a series I've started from Ex-Pats on what they miss most about Buffalo, in their own words:

Danielle now lives in Ohio, and here's what she misses about Buffalo, NY (Click here for posts from Margot Lane and Chris Nathan)

Good food, scenery and hockey are some of the things I miss about buffalo the most. You never realize what you have till you decide to move 6 hours away to an area that has no good scenic views, terrible food and a hockey team that is still considered to be in the infant stages compared to the Buffalo Sabers. The best thing to do was being downtown and either watching the Sabres play at the arena or watching the game on TV at the penalty box with great friends!! Didn't matter if the won or lost, the Sabres will always be the best team in the NHL.

What goes hand in hand with a great hockey team? Food!! I miss buffalo food more then anything!! Where to start?? Real pizza from Master Market! Delicious subs from John & Marys, Louie’s hot dogs and Anchor Bar wings are some of the places I miss the most. You can’t find food that good anywhere but Buffalo. Fish fry’s, beef on weck, hot dogs, bison chip dip, and loganberry!!! This list could go on and on. My husband grew up in Ohio and has come home to Buffalo a few times with me and can not get over on how amazing the food is! Another amazing feature of Buffalo is the view! To be able to look at a beautiful lake everyday that you drive in and out of the city is amazing. Doesn’t matter if its middle of summer or middle of winter, its something that makes Buffalo the city it is. I really miss swimming, fishing and boating. The view of the lake all the way down the magical Rt. 5. The soothing sounds of moving water. You never realize how wonderful a place is until you leave it all behind.
