Love this! I learned so much I didn't know as a native Buffalonian, and recalled things I had forgotten. Thank you!! I went to Schwabels once, had my first Tom n Jerry drink there. Most of my friends and i...we'll maybe most people....associate a place with food. Or restaurants. Tipp city Ohio had the plate sized pancake at Sam n Ethels. Nashville has my beloved calypso. Buffalo has my wings, weck, Chiavettas, and used to have my Swiss Chalet...and of course the Polish food. And yes, I'm hungry!! Might have to snack on the creamed cucumbers I made the other day...😉

I'm not interested in the beef, but those Kümmelweck look amazing! I might need to make some of those rolls... 😛

You made me homesick, Mark! Next time I’m back in “beau fleuve,” I’m hitting up Charlie the Butcher.
