Why I didn’t have my own giant hunk of grease across ARTVOICE’s recent food issue is beyond me because – besides music – one of my favorite things to debate and talk endlessly about is food here in the Queen City.

There’s nothing like deliberating with friends what joint has got the better wings or wecks, ever trading off favored off the beaten path gin mills and surprise spots of gastronomical treasure in attempting to trump one another.

No stretch of local road rates higher on the great food scale for for me as the mile of Delaware between Hertel and Kenmore Avenues. It’s here where I insist you can buy Buffalo’s best Italian sausage and pork products (Scime’s Rite Price), get chicken wings that put every other in joint in town to shame (Kelly’s Korner) or grab for a great sub, ravioli dinner or custard at host of other choice stops.

So it was fitting that along this part of Delaware – making that all too often stop for the beloved Three Cheese Burrito – I saw this sight: what I decided was a sort of a tap out in a veritable Buffalo fast food Clash of the Titans.
