I am definitely a foodie. The first thing I look for in any town is where to eat, and where the locals eat. On my second night in Buffalo I had the pleasure of going to E.
The steak was cooked perfectly… melt in your mouth delicious. I am a self described customer service guru and E. My next stop, The Chocolate Bar left a lot to be desired. Some may say I am a chocolate snob…. They may be right. Too often quality places make the decision to forsake the thing that they built their reputation on. It is always disappointing to see a place like this with a great name and a great concept ship in frozen desserts. I was having a craving so I ordered the Belgian chocolate pyramid which was a dark chocolate pyramid filled with chocolate mousse.
Every time I leave Asheville I am reminded just how special home is. Our vibrant and bustling downtown is really something to be proud of, and the amount of support for local businesses like The Chocolate Fetish is heartwarming. So far the most important thing I have learned on this trip is how important it is to support local independent businesses everywhere you go and especially at home.
Hopefully as my adventures in Buffalo continue I will find some quality chocolate that lives up to my expectations. With tours to 5 different family owned candy and chocolate shops coming up I have high hopes. Stay tuned to hear all about them and the rest of my adventures in Buffalo.
Occasionally I get the opportunity to travel for my work, and it is always pretty sweet. The first chocolate shop and factory that I visited in Buffalo, NY. The place credited with creating the Buffalo Chicken WIng. While I am here I also plan to do a little touring of my own and I have already begun to compile a good list of intriguing places. There are a handful of local chocolate shops, a couple iconic chickien wing restaurants, and a place called The Chocolate Bar.
