Soho Buffalo, NY

Follow us on Twitter! @SoHoBurgerBar1 Soho Burger Bar seeks to fill a hole in the downtown Buffalo market by serving fresh, artisanally crafted burgers in a casual setting and for a fair price. Soho's menu makes many types of burgers available—including varieties such as veggie, shrimp, chicken, and tuna—but the proof of Manno's commitment to the big time burger world is his use of a custom blended meat from local butcher shop, Johnny's Meats. "We looked at bringing in a really well-known national brand of custom-blend burger that a lot of top chefs use, but I wasn't okay with using frozen meat. In our kitchen, the only thing that will ever see the freezer is the ice cream and the chicken wings.” So Manno went to Johnny's, the Hertel Avenue butcher he patronizes for his home cooking needs. "Together we came up with a really fantastic blend of fresh, high-quality beef that I know people are going to love.” Manno also wanted to use a really good roll, full of flavor and of the perfect consistency, so he turned to Romeo & Juliet's, another Hertel Avenue purveyor. "What I really wanted was a brioche roll, so we started with their panettone recipe and tweaked it until we had just what we were looking for. "
