CHAIR'S message
On behalf of the board of directors, volunteers, and
participating restaurants and sponsors, it is my pleasure
to welcome you to the 33rd annual Taste of Buffalo
presented by Tops.
When I visited my first Taste of Buffalo as a child, I’m
certain I didn’t experience it to its fullest, but over the
years as I’ve grown, so has our beautiful city, this event,
and my appreciation for all it has to offer.
The first Taste of Buffalo offered samples from 13
restaurants, and this year, we are proud to be hosting a
record 62 restaurants with over 200 different menu items
for you to try. I urge you to experience this festival to its
fullest; try something new, discover a restaurant you’ve
never been to. The restaurants that are offered here must
pass a taste test, interview, and be voted in. Come see
what the hype is all about. Visit the interactive sponsor
displays, enjoy a show in the shade at the Culinary Stage,
watch the first-ever kale eating competition, or see a
live band.
I would like to extend my appreciation to Mayor Brown and
the City of Buffalo, our presenting sponsor, Tops Markets,
and our esteemed event coordinator, Connie Wendling,
who helps piece it all together.
You can feel good when you eat at the Taste! Not
only are you supporting your local restaurants and
wineries, but you help make possible donations
to numerous charitable organizations in our
community. To date, more than $315,000 has been
raised at the festival for local charities in addition
to five $1,000 scholarships awarded annually to
local high school seniors pursuing a culinary or
hospitality-related degree. The Taste is a not-forprofit, run by an all-volunteer board of directors &
a festival coordinator. The primary purpose of the
event is to showcase downtown Buffalo and the
wonderful restaurants that call our region home.
My sincerest thank
you to the dedicated
all-volunteer board
of directors, the
numerous committee
volunteers, each restaurant for bringing your best dishes,
and to you, the people of our community that keep
coming back year after year. A special thank you to my
family- my husband and my daughter, Casey, who look
forward to the festival as much as I do, and to my folks for
attending this festival for 33 years running, and making it
a summer destination.
It has been an honor to work closely with this year's board
of directors in a communal effort to bring you the best
food Buffalo has to offer, a friendly family atmosphere,
and a great weekend for us all.
Enjoy!

CONGRATULATIONS to our 2016 Scholarship Winners
ZACHARIAH SCHMITZ
I am currently a senior at Eden Jr./Sr. High School and upon graduation will attend the
Culinary Institute of America. My interest in the culinary industry came to me when I was
14 and started my job at Water Valley Inn. I began as a busboy and quickly moved to
dishes. While working on dishes I found it fascinating to see how a restaurant operated
at the back of the house. I have been influenced greatly by both Chef Paul Gruppouso
and Chef James Kuras, who taught me how to cook along with how to work hard
and efficiently. I was fortunate to have the opportunity to act as captain to four hard
working seniors and lead my team to 3rd place in the Prostart State Competition. I feel
like my future is just beginning and I hope to make my mark in the culinary field upon
graduation from the Culinary Institute.
NOEL ALLESI
Upon graduation from Orchard Park High School, I am excited to use this Taste of
Buffalo scholarship to pursue a dual major in Business Management and Resort
and Hospitality Management at Florida Gulf Coast University. I currently work in
the bakery at Orchard Fresh and as a hostess at Sunset Bay. After graduating with
a Bachelor’s degree I hope to achieve my dream of working in the hospitality field
as a manager either on a cruise ship or at a major vacation resort. It is my goal to
contribute to a supportive working environment for my co-workers to enable us
to best serve our customers.
ERICKA HOLTZ
Upon graduating this June from both Springville-Griffith Institute and W.D. Ormsby
BOCES Vocational Center with high honors, I will continue my education at the Niagara
Falls Culinary Institute and pursue my degree in Baking and Pastry Arts. My participation
in Varsity swimming, SkillsUSA competitions and being recognized this year into the
National Technical Honor Society has given me a great feeling of accomplishment. The
education that I will receive in college will help me achieve my dream of becoming
Pastry Chef for hotels, resorts and parks. I am enthused about what the future holds for
my creativity and what joy I can bring to people with my creations.
BROOKE MARAFINO
I am a senior at Cheektowaga Central High School and a culinary student at Harkness
Technical Center. I will attend Erie Community College in the fall to earn a degree in
Culinary Arts. I currently work part time in the prepared foods department at a food
retailer, and plan to pursue a position as a chef upon graduating. I want to improve
the health of others by demonstrating that healthy food can taste great.
CARTER RICHARDS
I am currently a senior at Williamsville East High School, planning to attend the Culinary
Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY starting in late August. In school, I participate in
Drama Club, Chorus, Vocal Jazz, Art, National Honors Society, and Link Leaders. Outside
of school, I perform with the Academy of Theatre Arts (ATA) in Williamsville and also
sing at Calvary Episcopal Church. I work at Giancarlo’s Sicilian Steakhouse and Pizzeria,
as a dishwasher, and also at Tim Horton’s Café and Bake Shop. In my free time, I enjoy
hanging out with friends, singing and trying new food. I dedicate all my hard work and
passion for the culinary field to my father who recently passed away. I hope to make him
proud with all my future accomplishments.
6
Current high school seniors residing in one of the eight counties in Western New York who intend to pursue
a major in a culinary arts or hospitality curriculum are able to apply for one of up to five $1,000 scholarships
being offered every year by the Taste. Students are evaluated based on academic achievement, experience,
enthusiasm, recommendations, community involvement, goals and objectives, and overall interest.
See tasteofbuffalo.com in February for 2017 scholarship information.
