Shakespeare in Delaware Park has been a Buffalo summer tradition since 1976.

Between friends giving it rave reviews and my sister giving my husband a gift card for his birthday, we finally had to go.

While I enjoy my eating adventures in other places, I’m always happy to return home to eat some of my favorite dishes again. Traveling also forced me to realize that some of these delightful foods aren’t available or even known everywhere. So enjoy them when you get the chance! Continue reading
