So, how about we alleviate some of that significant metropolitan ignorance and discuss a little history and some highlights of North Buffalo? At best we’ll all be more knowledgeable about the city we inhabit, and at worst, we’ll know where to get some top-notch sandwiches. So it’s win, win!
UB Anderson Gallery

Take, for example, their current exhibition ELIZABETH MURRAY: BACK IN TOWN. Focusing on the two-year period where she worked in Buffalo as a teacher at Daemen College and looking critically at the impact those two years had on her work and career moving forward. Maybe you’re not an art student, and maybe this type of thing isn’t for you. Still, either way, finding a university that focuses on the works of lesser-known local artists in a critical lens, and even the mere act of using art exhibitions as an extension of the higher learning experience is a rarity that at the very least should be appreciated for what it’s trying to do.

So, if you have some spare time on your hands, why not head on over to the Buffalo Zoo? Any time you can look at a majestic animal, learn about its needs and how it, and by extension, you fit into the bigger picture of everything, I’d consider that time well spent.
The North Park Theatre

This was until 2013 when Eoannou partnered with Left Bank Restaurant and Mes Que owner Mike Christiano to assume full operational control of the North Park Theatre under a newly formed ownership group. Thus, reopening its doors to the public in spectacular fashion! Who can really say definitely what the theater was like during its halcyon days in the 20s, but if it was anything like how it is today, there’s no doubt in my mind that it was indeed something special!
Joe’s Deli
Joe’s Deli offers an assortment of delicious sandwiches like the forementioned Buffalo mainstay beef on weck to tasty concoctions like The Hangover, which has hot capicola, fried egg, sautéed onions, cherry peppers, and melted provolone, topped with lettuce, tomato, and mayo on a toasted Costanzo’s hard roll, among many others.
So although this cold war continues to rage all over Buffalo, grab a hot sandwich from Joe’s Deli and know that no matter what you choose, it’ll make you forget all about the war and make you laser-focused on what you should order for next time.
