Cheektowaga, NY 14225
USA

Most airports are alike. Same seating, close to the same restaurants and aside from its size, they usually all look the same.

The one thing that set Buffalo airport apart from most that I've been to: no duty free. I probably should've known but…More »

Hello Anchor Bar,

I've been dreaming about your chicken fingers off and on since I met you. They were large and in charge. Extremely delicious. I didn't fault you too badly for not having or knowing what plum sauce is. And I realize that you were…More »

Although a little smaller than I expected, one of the easiest airports in the US to get through, in terms of check in and time to reach your gate. When arriving, we all had our bags in less than 10 minutes. Two baggage handlers greeted us and, upon…More »

If I ever go back to Washington again, I'm definitely staying in this hotel. The scenery alone is gorgeous. You feel like you're in a mini-atrium. And the downstairs, sitting by the water, is extremely relaxing.

It was close to most landmarks and…More »

Gorgeous venue. I did enjoy myself here that night. I danced up a storm, the DJs were on point.

Sucky drink service though. $10 for a glass of wine? Crazy!

My friends and I knew we should've tried other restaurants while we were in DC. But the wings we had here are first day had us coming back for more. They were so delicious.

The service was amazing one day and so so the next.

2.0 star rating
  10/6/2010

I went here for a hosted event and I have to say I wasn't that impressed. It just reminded me of clubs in Toronto: overcrowded and bouncers that are too happy to tell you you have to move when you technically can't move without becoming extremely…More »

I went here for a comedy show. I love the layout. It's open but you still feel like you can go off and chat with just your friends. The drinks were exceptionnally made and were decent priced, although I'm not sure if that was due to the event being…More »

My favourite club location while I was in DC. Granted we had our own VIP section but I occasionnally went out on the dance floor. The bouncers were really great at getting us in without waiting too long outside. We also got through to our designated…More »

Recently updated lists from Nicole B.

Man, I feel like a Woman! (11)

Every female should have a place (or two) that makes her feel good about herself, both inside and out. As Shakira would say, release your inner She-Wolf! These places not only make me feel good about myself but slightly empowered. Now, if only I could get that dang Shakira song out of my head!

Virgin Territory (23)

You always remember your first...unless it involved alcohol

Places I would send R**** from high school (15)

R**** was my sworn enemy from grades 11 to OAC. I would send her to these places because they suck and because I went to an all-girls school so I totally know about revenge and stuff.

Cold as Ice! (16)

The places I like that blast the AC

My Decemburger journey/Mon voyage de décemburgère (7)

Can I handle 22 burger spots in one month? As Decemburger bears upon me, I set myself up to sample what may be the best (or worst) burgers of my life.

My Comfort Zones (11)

These are places that make me feel warm and fuzzy on the inside. I venture here often.

Sush-sush-sushi-ooooo! (8)

My best and worst

Sugar Coma (5)

Desserts so good, I wouldn't share with my mom.

Thunderstorms? Pshaw! (6)

I believe thunderstorms should only be enjoyed from the comfort of my bed. But if I did go out, it would only be to these places.

Cut-eye and Steups (3)

I'm judgmental when it comes to my own culture's food!
