this NY winter is going to be a shocker, but I think it'll be an experience
(... which I'll probably not forget for quite a while!!)
We'll be visiting several hospitals; Millard Fillmore (and all their
associates) and Buffalo General, unfortunately, not Roswell Park, but I'll
pass the word along.
Our hotel is the Marriott at Amherst. Is this anywhere close to any of the
places you all mentioned? I don't care to drive much if the weather is going
to be bad.
I'll probably try to hit Kuni's one evening, and then reserve the rest for
something less exclusive since we do have some people who have never tried
sushi before.
We'll be arriving on a tuesday, so won't be able to catch your show ...
sorry.
Thanks for your input. Jack.

Amherst, eh? ok... things'll be a little out-of-the-way for you (meaning
Kuni's and Osakas), but worth the trip. Don;t forget, we deal with the
snow every year... somtimes for 9 months at a clip. (Kidding) It'll be
cold, but the roads'll be pretty dry (they are by me, and I live out in
the area known as "ski-country").

As for the hospitals, Millard Fillmore Suburban is where my daughter was
born - nice crew. While you're there I would suggest you see about going
to Wegmans (grocery store) at Sherridan Drive and Essjay (Basically go
out to the traffic light and turn left). If you go in during the day
(lunch!) in the food entrance (on the right) they have a sushi kiosk
where they make it right in front of you and sell it. These guys are
GOOD at what they do!

Hope the trip goes well, and you have a great reality story to tell the
folks back home... For instance, buffalo winters aren't as bad as
everyone thinks - they're worse, but DAMN! can they dig out when it
hits! (Smirk)
