That’s why Spree’s writers are offering up some of their favorite food bargains, as are some of WNY’s most noteworthy folks, like WGR favorite Chris “The Bulldog” Parker. You’ll find great selections at several of the area’s most well-known spotsSchwabl’s, Papa Jake’s, La Haciendaand also some under-the-radar locations that might surprise you: Rodney’s in Hamburg, Koreana in Tonawanda, and many more. We also take a farewell look at the recently shuttered Earl’s Drive-In, and Spree wine critic Mark Criden offers some affordable selections. So eat cheaply, and be merry.
