Again this year Josh and I were honored to be Food Judges at the 29th annual Taste of Buffalo. It's a tough job but somebody's gotta do it. We love eating, so we're well qualified.

More than 50 restaurants represented, plus new this year - food trucks! Oh, where to begin? It's not a mad scramble when you're a Food Judge. The organizers actually give us assignments so that all of the vendors are covered and if something along the way catches our eye, we can sample that too.

Josh's Thoughts on the Taste of Buffalo Winners

The 29th annual Taste of Buffalo wrapped up yesterday, and I’m about five pounds heavier! The weekend was a blast. Dale and I had the difficult job of being judges on Saturday, but we were able to brave the elements and consume all the wonderful foods.

As judges, we each had to taste food from five vendors with a sixth as a write-in (if you had any more room in your stomach). I judged Kabab & Curry, which made a grilled piece of spicy chicken that was enormous and delicious -- best item on their menu. I also judged Alex's place (great ribs!), Mr. Bones, Zebbs and JP Bullfeathers.

This year’s winners were announced late Saturday. Personally, I had a "beef" with a couple of the selections, but it is what it is. Here are some of the winners…

The 28th annual Taste of Buffalo is underway in downtown Buffalo. Along Delaware Avenue from Chippewa Street to Niagara Square 50 restaurants and 7 wineries offer samples from their menus. Many restaurants are familiar names in Western New York, but each year there are a few new ones and that's the idea. The Taste gives you a chance to sample items from restaurants you've never been to before so that you may want to check it out sometime in the future.
