Daniel Tracy: The Iron Event, Buffalo Bite Competition

Hundreds attended the Iron Event, a Buffalo Bite Competition at Banchetti by Rizzo's in Amherst, New York to raise funds to defray health care expenses for Chef Daniel Tracy diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's. A great way to spend the day Sunday, January 30 at 4 PM.  The food bites were all incredibly delicious, making it challenging to pick out the best tasting one from the finest chefs in the Western New York area gathered at the event to showcase their culinary skills and to help a friend.

Eating for a cause, Chef Daniel Tracy

Daniel Tracy made a name for himself in the local cuisine market, working as a line cook in many restaurants from Mother's,  Tempo, Bravo to others just about ready to open his own place until he developed Lou Gehrig's disease at age 33.  And now life took a detour  from the executive sous chef at Black & Blue to working in the banking industry, using more of his MBA now than his culinary knives, exchanging them for pens, pencils and a calculator as a senior loan officer at Bank of America.
A fundraiser is being organized for him to help defray his health insurance costs at Banchetti by Rizzo, 550 N. French Road, Amherst on Sunday, January 30 from 4 to 8 pm.

Tu Case en Rochester: Se dice en Puerto Rico, "Tu casa es mi casa"

"At 3 a.m., when most of us are still in bed dreaming, Manuel Maldonado is already in the kitchen making lunch. The owner of Tu Casa on St. Paul Street gets up early every day, not because he has breakfast customers to get ready for - the restaurant only serves lunch and dinner - but because he insists on making everything he serves at this Puerto Rican restaurant from scratch every day."

A las 3 am, cuando la mayoría de nosotros todavía estamos en la cama soñando, Manuel Maldonado ya está en la cocina preparando el almuerzo. El dueño de Tu Casa en la calle St. Paul se levanta temprano todos los días, no porque haya clientes desayuno para prepararse para - el único restaurante sirve el almuerzo y la cena -, sino porque él insiste en hacer todo lo que sirve en este restaurante de Puerto Rico de cero cada día.
