Within a few hundred feet, visitors can feast on charcoal broiled Sahlen\u2019s hot dogs, Mineo &amp; Sapio sausage, beef on weck sandwiches, creamy frozen custard, and Paula\u2019s famous peanut sticks.<\/p>\n<p>No exploration of classic Buffalo fare is complete without a stop at this stretch of Sheridan Drive between Belmont and Ashford Avenues, a spot one local wit dubbed \u201cthe holy trinity of Buffalo calories.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s our guide to making this iconic gastronomic pilgrimage.<\/p>\n<p><em>Ted&#8217;s Hot Dogs at 2312 Sheridan Drive \/ Photo: Visit Buffalo Niagara<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Ted\u2019s Hot Dogs<\/p>\n<p><em>2312 Sheridan Drive, Tonawanda, NY<\/em><\/p>\n<p>When visitors first approach this portion of Sheridan Drive, they\u2019ll often notice the smoky aroma of charcoal grilled hot dogs hanging in the air. That smell has been a mainstay of the neighborhood since 1948, when Ted\u2019s Hot Dogs opened its first location outside of the city of Buffalo. The Sheridan restaurant is the \u201cmothership,\u201d according to Ted\u2019s president Thecly Ortolani. It\u2019s the longest-running location in the chain and sought out by out-of-town visitors when they visit Buffalo.<\/p>\n<p>Some thought Thecly\u2019s grandfather, Theodore \u201cTed\u201d Liaros, was crazy when he purchased a plot of farmland out here all those years ago to build this location. But his decision to move here ultimately changed the course of Buffalo food history. In its earliest years as a hot dog stand underneath the Peace Bridge, Ted\u2019s grilled its hot dogs on a flat top grill. It was only upon moving to Sheridan that Ted\u2019s son, Spiro Liaros, noticed that a couple of other nearby roadside stands, Pat\u2019s and Scime\u2019s, grilled their hot dogs using charcoal. Ted\u2019s adopted that method as well, ultimately outlasting its competitors and creating \u201cthe niche that differentiates us from the rest of the country,\u201d Thecly Ortolani said.<\/p>\n<p>Customers line up to place their order at the front grill, then watch as Ted\u2019s grill masters deftly sear Sahlen\u2019s hot dogs, footlongs, burgers, chicken, and Mineo &amp; Sapio sausage over an open flame. Some order their hot dogs \u201cextra charred,\u201d as the charcoal grilling causes them to darken and snap open with an extra smoky flavor. Ask for the \u201cworks\u201d on your hot dog \u2013 including Ted\u2019s signature, housemade hot relish \u2013 and complete your meal with an order of onion rings, a recipe Ted\u2019s modeled after a now defunct local restaurant, Garlock\u2019s. Then wash it all down with a loganberry drink for an unrivaled experience of American roadside food.<\/p>\n<p><em>Anderson&#8217;s Frozen Custard at 2235 Sheridan Drive \/ Photo: Anderson&#8217;s (Facebook)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Anderson\u2019s Frozen Custard<\/p>\n<p><em>2235 Sheridan Drive, Tonawanda, NY<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Soon after Ted\u2019s expanded to Sheridan, another roadside stand opened across the street and instantly developed its own following by selling creamy, frozen custard.<\/p>\n<p>Carl and Greta Anderson saw the potential Sheridan Drive held when they opened their stand in 1953, according to their daughter, Holly. The pair had previously operated a stand along Kenmore Avenue, but business boomed after relocating to Tonawanda, as \u201cAmerica was getting built along Sheridan Drive,\u201d Holly Anderson said. Families loved taking a Sunday drive back then to Sheridan for a cone, and to this day, lines often stretch out the door for a chocolate\/vanilla twist made from Anderson\u2019s special custard mix, a scoop of one of 32 homemade hard ice cream flavors, and roast beef sliced from a top round and served on a kummelweck roll, a kaiser roll covered in coarse salt and caraway seeds, that\u2019s always referred to as \u201cweck.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Anderson\u2019s proximity to Ted\u2019s ultimately influenced its menu. When the Andersons were looking to expand beyond custard, they decided to avoid hamburgers and hot dogs since Ted\u2019s had a lock on those items down the street. Instead, they started serving roast beef sandwiches in the 1960s, with Carl hand-slicing the beef himself for decades to make sure every sandwich was just right. In the six decades since, Anderson\u2019s has carved out a niche as one of the region\u2019s go-to spots for one of the Buffalo\u2019s region\u2019s iconic local dishes, beef on weck.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s no coincidence that Ted\u2019s and Anderson\u2019s can be found near each other throughout Erie County. According to Holly Anderson, Anderson\u2019s often selected its new locations based on where Ted\u2019s succeeded. A visit to Anderson\u2019s flagship location, which has preserved and expanded its original 1950s structure, is a must for anyone who wants to experience a great American roadside custard stand.<\/p>\n<p><em>Paula&#8217;s Donuts at 2319 Sheridan Drive \/ Photo: Paula&#8217;s Donuts (Facebook)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Paula\u2019s Donuts<\/p>\n<p><em>2319 Sheridan Drive, Tonawanda, NY<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The first thing visitors notice when they walk into Paula\u2019s Donuts is the sweet aroma of frosting, fry cakes, and coffee. Then their eyes naturally drift to the multi-level shelf behind the front counter that holds nearly three dozen different varieties of donuts. There are red velvet donuts for sale here, and headlights, and honeydips, and powder angels, and powder chocolate angels, and coconut cream, and sour cream, and angel cream. And then there are the peanut coated fry cakes that Paula\u2019s has become renowned for: the peanut stick, the peanut cream, and the peanut jelly doughnut. Paula\u2019s has become the torch bearer for the peanut stick, a Buffalo specialty popularized by longtime (and long-gone) Freddie\u2019s Doughnuts generations ago.<\/p>\n<p>This shop completed the trinity a little more than a decade ago, when owner Paula Huber moved her business from its original location on Kenmore Avenue to a new spot in a shopping plaza in between Ted\u2019s and Anderson\u2019s. Its hours, beginning at 7 a.m. daily, brought a breakfast crowd to this formerly lunch, dinner, and dessert centric stretch of highway.<\/p>\n<p>From morning until night, the holy trinity of Buffalo calories buzzes with customers who converge on Sheridan Drive to try some of the tastiest and most unique foods found in Western New York.<\/p>\n<p>Ted\u2019s Hot Dogs<br \/>2312 Sheridan Drive, Tonawanda, NY<br \/>tedshotdogs.com<\/p>\n<p>Anderson&#8217;s Frozen Custard<br \/>2235 Sheridan Drive, Tonawanda, NY<br \/>andersonscustard.com<\/p>\n<p>Paula&#8217;s Donuts<br \/>2319 Sheridan Drive, Tonawanda, NY<br \/>paulasdonuts.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":45,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-block-layout.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-429922","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.2 (Yoast SEO v24.2) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Visit Buffalo Niagara Blog: Trip Inspiration &amp; More<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Start planning your vacation to Buffalo with our blog!
