Random Thoughts on Food: BFD

Buffalo Fire Department

Burgers, Fries and Drinks

Chef Shafer opened this burger joint across the street from The Depot. The burgers are great. The wine list is great. And there's plenty of beers to choose from. I do prefer a beer with my burger, but its nice to have lots of nice wine options too. I am partial to the burger made with Chef's famous Thai BBQ sauce -- one of my favorite things over at The Depot.

Tim and I went recently to BFD and decided to go all out with fat and calories: I had the Macaroni & Cheese Burger Stack, with a side of fries. Tim had the BFD Burger wth Buffalo (fried) Chicken, Bleu Cheese and Fried Onions, also with a side of fries. Now Tim can certainly afford the calories, but me? Ha.

So you wanna know what this mac & cheese burger is all about? Its a fried patty made with mac & cheese --think a big scoop of mac & cheese coated in panko bread crumbs and deep fried. Put a thick juicy Angus burger on top, some ranch dressing and there you have what i ate. Yes, I ate that. And it was gooood.

Tim's burger with fried chicken on top was equally good. Check out the pics below for proof of our pigishness!
