- ExBuffalonian on ExBuffalonian’s “Warm December” I agree it seems weird to have 60-degree days in December in Buffalo, but I heard this morning that next weekend is finally going to be a little more wintry. My hope is that this delayed winter weather will make Spring seem to come that mu…
- metalpeter on ExBuffalonian’s “O Tannenbaum” That is pretty big it reminds me of the old Main Place Mall days (yeah still there) at the end there was a bank and it would have really tall Christmas trees since it was two levels high .........
- vincent on ExBuffalonian’s “Niagara Falls Pizza” Yea they call it "Old Fashioned" or "Sicilian" Also another good place to go for Pizza in the Falls is Pizza oven down the 19th st at Niagara. The neighborhood is very sketch, but they do make some good pizza. I also get a craving for anot…
- joe on ExBuffalonian’s “Warm December” I'm ready for it to snow actually. It's too weird to be warm this late. I like the idea of Handlebar but it is expensive. Sometimes they have GoBike events there, that's the only time I've seen it crowded (plus we had the World Naked Bike …
- metalpeter on ExBuffalonian’s “Niagara Falls Pizza” In Terms of Pizza there are Different Kinds New York style is very thin crust and one could if they wanted to roll it up towards the crust into a roll up all most ... That right there in the picture is called Old World Style ... It is very…
- libertad on ExBuffalonian’s “Niagara Falls Pizza” That looks so good, i want it! I love pizza w/o cheese too!
- paul on ExBuffalonian’s “Niagara Falls Pizza” I love that kind of pizza.
- joe on ExBuffalonian’s “Niagara Falls Pizza” Wow, I've never had pizza that saucy. I think I've seen similar looking slices on the counter at Guercio's so it must be a hardcore italian thing. It looks really good.
- metalpeter on ExBuffalonian’s “Back in WNY” Nice Photos Hope the concert was great ..... I have never been there since I don't know the falls Area and yes they do get a lot of great shows
- ExBuffalonian on ExBuffalonian’s “Back in WNY” The Rapid Theater does get good shows. We're going to see Skinny Puppy on Friday. Third Street also has a great Vibe. Wine on Third, The Bistro, and 24 Below Gallery & Cafe are all interesting places. There's also an Indian Restaurant that…
- vincent on ExBuffalonian’s “Back in WNY” Welcome Back! I'm out your way so it's good to see the Northern Niagara River get represented on here. The area off of Main St to Deveaux still is affordable. There is a great vibe from the Rapids Theater which always brings in great shows…
- ExBuffalonian on ExBuffalonian’s “Back in WNY” Thanks guys! Maybe I'll eventually meet some of you eStrippers in person now that I'm back in the area. Hiking in the gorge, and cocktails after, would be fun!
- joe on ExBuffalonian’s “Back in WNY” Welcome back! The houses in that neighborhood look awesome. I've never really explored outside of the gorge though.
- paul on ExBuffalonian’s “Back in WNY” That's awesome. I need to head back there soon and go hiking. I always thought that neighborhood was cute.
- libertad on ExBuffalonian’s “Back in WNY” Welcome back! Seeing the gorge from your living room is definitely a perk!
- paul on ExBuffalonian’s “Tiffany & Co supporting gay marriage” Its so crazy when you think about all the lost marketing opportunities over such a long period of time.
- vincent on ExBuffalonian’s “Buffalo & Baltimore” It's kind of funny how Buffalo is trying to replicate the success of the Baltimore Inner Harbor or at least want to be it when it grows up. At least we got our casino set up early as it looks like Baltimore just added one.
- paul on ExBuffalonian’s “Buffalo & Baltimore” Is there a relationship between the architects?
- ExBuffalonian on ExBuffalonian’s “Dim sum in Washington DC” Holy cats, thanks for the dumpling link! And for the great food information. I will most definitely check out some of your recommendations and post on what I find. I am pretty sure that Believe campaign is pretty much history. I got here i…
- tinypliny on ExBuffalonian’s “Dim sum in Washington DC” Oh and did you see this list http://dcist.com/2014/07/the_best_places_to_get_dumplings_in.php I have not been to any and obviously need to rectify this massive oversight considering this is where I am!
- tinypliny on ExBuffalonian’s “Dim sum in Washington DC” NYC: Out of this world brownies: Fat Witch, Chelsea Market. {Actually, it might be just butter and sugar but who cares at this point.}
- tinypliny on ExBuffalonian’s “Dim sum in Washington DC” Best pizza in DC: 2 Amys! Best and most amazing pies: Pie Sisters! Best Ethiopian: Zenebach Injera Maryland snooty towns: Pretty good Chinese & Japanese: Taipei Tokyo (Fallsgrove, Rockville) Delicious Vietnamese Pho: Pho Nom Nom (Rockville…
- heidi on ExBuffalonian’s “Dim sum in Washington DC” Federal Hill is such a cute neighborhood. Those skinny little rowhouses with the amazing back patio-multi-story deck gardens... I looked at buying a house there back in the mid-90s. I like Baltimore much more than D.C. Do they still have t…
- ExBuffalonian on ExBuffalonian’s “Dim sum in Washington DC” Most of that dim sum was not vegetarian, but there were a few dishes: vegetable dumplings, deep fried taro, lotus root, and those amazing greens in the front of the picture. Oh, and some sautéed string beans. Maybe there were more vegetabl…
- matthew on ExBuffalonian’s “Dim sum in Washington DC” Peking Garden, Golden Duck, Gin Gin.
- paul on ExBuffalonian’s “Dim sum in Washington DC” Where in Buffalo?
- matthew on ExBuffalonian’s “Dim sum in Washington DC” There are a few places around town. Love me some dim sum!
- tinypliny on ExBuffalonian’s “Dim sum in Washington DC” Wow. I am HERE!! I totally am checking this out!! Would you PLEASE post more recommendations???? Are any of those dimsum vegetarian? And pray tell which is #2 in NYC? If you are in Baltimore, you cannot miss The Helmand! Absolutely everyth…
- tinypliny on ExBuffalonian’s “A few of my favorite (Buffalo) things” How did you get to live in that last house? Pray tell! I love stories!! :)
- tinypliny on ExBuffalonian’s “A few of my favorite (Buffalo) things” Ah, the sky comment was meant for this post! :-) The other one is pretty awesome too... but the skies in this one are SO extraordinarily cool. Look at the Gold dome floating amongst the wild nebulous clouds!

- ExBuffalonian on joe’s “A raggedy new year” We’re a few months into the “new” year already, and I was thinking it has been a little better than last year. Or maybe I’ve adjusted to the craziness. Then, yesterday, I was beside myself all day, wondering how our government could promis…
- ExBuffalonian on joe’s “Last day at the AMC Market Arcade” Quite nice of them to let you in with the wrong tickets. I’m super excited the theater will be opening soon under new ownership. I’m walking distance too, so I plan to go often and support them as much as possible.
- ExBuffalonian on paul’s “Trip To NYC For My 40th Birthday” Happy Birthday! Sharing great art and food in NYC with the people you love, what could be better than that? I've always loved that Henri Rousseau painting.
- ExBuffalonian on joe’s “Props to my brother” This is one of the best things I've read on the internet in a while. I love to hear about things like this in our community.

- ExBuffalonian on mike’s “Getting Rid of Clothes” I can relate to this. I'm all about recycling, reusing, etc. so when I need to get rid of clothes, it's a little tough for me. Not so much that I think I'll miss something that much; it's more that I don't like the idea of someone else, so…
- ExBuffalonian on heidi’s “A completely ordinary bad day” I went through a period like this about 6 years ago when I lost a very close family member, who I adored. I had always heard how that kind of loss changes a person, but I never understood exactly what it meant until it happened to me. One …
- ExBuffalonian on joe’s “Outlet mall” The Como is very popular with native Niagarans, probably because of its stature as an icon in the community. It has always been there, and most of the locals have grown up with it. So they love it automatically. Fortuna's is way better for…
- ExBuffalonian on joe’s “Maria's birthday” It's interesting that recipes outside the US often measure ingredients in weight (grams) instead of volume (cups). Chetna seems lovely!
- ExBuffalonian on joe’s “Medical records on Allen” Besides compromising the privacy of patients and employees, what a mess. That seems very irresponsible for a medial office. They might try to pass the blame onto the recycler, but at the end of the day the medical office could have had bet…
- ExBuffalonian on joe’s “When did” That room came together splendidly. I love the bold yellow you guys chose.

- ExBuffalonian on paul’s “Soft Cell Cassette Tape” Alan Cross, on Toronto's radio station 102.1, said they're still making cassette tapes, because there's still a market for them...the 2.4 million people currently serving time in American prisons! Inmates are reportedly not allowed to have…
- ExBuffalonian on joe’s “Deutschland bound!” Congratulations! That sounds like an amazing trip, and you got an incredible deal on airfare. We've hosted German exchange students many times and have taken trips to Germany. I'm sure you're going to love it. For many years, Munich was ou…
- ExBuffalonian on mike’s “Corn Chex in My Coffee” I never heard of this, but I'm down for trying it. Also, your post gave me an earworm, because all I can hear in my head now is Carly Simon singing about "clouds in my coffee." Lol
- ExBuffalonian on metalpeter’s “Robbed & Reflections & Not Ok” Sorry that happened to you. Like Libertad wrote, I also had a similar experience, being assaulted on a bus in Baltimore by someone who didn't like the way I looked and singled me out. I couldn't take the bus at night anymore without gettin…

- ExBuffalonian on joe’s “Painting Pt 1” Cool orange baseboards. I admire people who have the vision and courage to use nontraditional colors like that.
- ExBuffalonian on paul’s “Brunch with the Bros” I lived on Cottage Street, briefly, when Betty's first opened. Their food is amazing. What are these picture that follow brunch?
- ExBuffalonian on paul’s “One Less Closet” Doesn't look like it was original to the house's construction. Our new house was built in 1939--not nearly as old as yours--but we're living with some of the quarks simply because I don't want to change the structure too much. We're lucky …
- ExBuffalonian on joe’s “Light up grain silos” Wow that's quite impressive, and a good way to bring attention to these structures, part of the area's history.
- ExBuffalonian on ExBuffalonian’s “Back in WNY” Thanks guys! Maybe I'll eventually meet some of you eStrippers in person now that I'm back in the area. Hiking in the gorge, and cocktails after, would be fun!
- ExBuffalonian on libertad’s “Missing Grammy and Grandpa” Losing the people we love is the hardest thing most people go through in life. I hope you can find some comfort in the happy memories you have and that you feel better soon. Wine helps too.
- ExBuffalonian on vincent’s “Bonus nice day in Fall” pretty
- ExBuffalonian on libertad’s “Fish stew” I think I'll make this just for the halibut...ba-dum-TSH.
- ExBuffalonian on paul’s “Green Tea Creme Brule” I love green tea, and I love Crème brûlée. But I never thought of putting the two together. The more you know!
- ExBuffalonian on paul’s “Dad, Uncle Frank's and E:libertad's Birthday” I love the way Western New Yorkers use their garages as additional living space in warm weather months. Not sure if it's a thing mostly unique WNY, but you definitely don't see it so much here in Maryland.
- ExBuffalonian on metalpeter’s “Pride Parade 2015 (last weekend)” Thanks for posting these pics. Looks like it was a good time!
- ExBuffalonian on joe’s “Not so clean air” I feel especially bad for the people who live near there. Can you imagine how much dust is probably getting inside their homes? As if dusting wasn't already a tedious job already.
- ExBuffalonian on mike’s “thoughts during the oscars” Good post. I love the Oscars. But how could anyone hate Laura Dern? She's so sweet, and did you see Enlightened on HBO? Besides that, I agree with your notes. A note that I took was that JLo looked like Cinderella...if Cinderella was a slu…
