The Buffalo Wing Phenomenon started here at the Anchor Bar in Buffalo.
|
Buffalo Wings - The Real Story D. Bellissimo I would like my customers to know the real story behind our chicken wings. One Friday night, back in 1964, I was working behind the bar (as I still do now). It was busy that night. My mother, Teressa, was in the kitchen, cooking, and Dad, Frank, was popping in the restaurant, greeting customers. It was one of those good Friday Nights. At about 11:30 P.M. a group of my friends came through the door and they were STARVING! I told them to wait till midnight so they could have what they wanted. I served another round of drinks. By midnight, they were really hungry. I asked my mother, Teressa, to fix something for them. About ten minutes later, she brought out two plates and set them on the bar. They all asked, "What is this?" To tell you the truth, I was also curious to know what those things were. They looked like chicken wings, but I was afraid to say so. To make a long story short, yes, they were chicken wings. She was about to put them in the stock pot for soup. She looked at them and said, it's a shame to put such beautiful wings in a stock pot. The rest is history. Mother Teressa created the famous chicken wings now served all over the country. where-ever you go, when you mention chicken wings, remember Mother Teressa and that famous night in Buffalo, New York! |

Frank and Teressa and family certainly have a good handle on what separates good from terrific when it comes to Eateries and Taverns. The atmosphere has to be outstanding and it is. The food has to be best of the best, and it is. Historic significance gives a boost to the curious and when they show up, they get hooked on the atmosphere and the food. In recent decades, Buffalo Wings and Sushi are the most historic changes in American Cuisine. Who would have thought people would be happy about eating raw fish - or chicken wings? |

The Anchor Bar has it all. It has art (above left). It has happy customers (left). It has beautiful waitresses (right!), ready and happy to serve you your choice of Buffalo Wings or any number of other delicacies from the Anchor Bar's elaborate menu (way down below). The large horseshoe bar can seat plenty of happy wing eaters and those who want a table have a wide selection (above, far right) with a view! |

The Anchor Bar has genuine historicity (far right, above)! It was opened in 1935 during the Great Depression, just before the beginning or World War II. They have more war stories in this place than they do at Rue - Montorgueil. And you can listen to them in ENGLISH! Maybe that's where the symbol of hope - the anchor (left) came from. The Buffalo Angel to the right is dropping by to try to figure what happened and why it is now an angel instead of a Buffalo. One can see that it won its wings after its demise. They're white instead of covered with Buffalo Wing Sauce. |
