Taqueria Los Mayas

Reading about art is one thing, but seeing it for yourself takes the experience of art appreciation to a whole new level. That is the mission of the Albright-Knox Art Gallery. This internationally recognized museum proudly houses impressive collections of international sculptures and paintings that will captivate your imagination the moment you see them. Also, there are works from iconic artists like Picasso, Renoir, Matisse and Van Gough that are among the many highlights that you'll see in this world-class art venue.

With hectic schedules and various other distractions, it is often difficult for couples to make time to just talk and enjoy each other's company. If that sounds like a familiar scenario for you and your partner, then take a little time for a romantic date of a different sort by visiting the Hallwalls Contemporary Art Center. Stroll hand in hand from gallery to gallery as you take in the best in cutting-edge visual arts, contemporary music or innovative performance art. And maybe after absorbing it all, the two of you can find a bench in the corner and share some intimate conversation among these memorable expressions of art.

There's nothing like an excellent cigar after a good meal, or anytime really. In Buffalo, the place to find exotic cigars and cigar accessories is a great little store called the Tinder Box. This is no ordinary cigar shop, as the staff knows that choosing the perfect cigar should be just as relaxing as enjoying one. That's why there are several large, leather chairs in the store, as well as a large television and coffee and soft drinks available, too. The Tinder Box offers the largest selection of cigars outside of Manhattan, and you'll also find a great selection of humidors, cutters, and lighters here as well.

Music takes center stage at the Tralf Music Hall. Mingle with the laid-back crowd as you enjoy various acts who perform music from all genres, including jazz, rock and folk. There are several excellent cover bands that grace the stage as well, so there's always a great chance for you to sing along! A well-stocked bar is another outstanding feature of this nightlife venue, as well as a great menu that features standard but tasty choices like quesadillas, nachos and chicken fingers. The music and the food are equally tasty at the Tralf!
