Spaghetti parm · Buffalo
Spaghetti baked with marinara sauce and a thick blanket of mozzarella and Parmesan, served as the canonical Buffalo Italian-American dish. The version at Chef's Restaurant downtown is the model.
Chef's Restaurant at the corner of Seneca and Chicago downtown opened in 1923 and built Buffalo's signature Italian-American spaghetti parm. Lou Billittier became sole owner in 1954 and the Billittier family carried the room for a century. The dish is now a Buffalo institution and the canonical version a generation of locals associate with downtown.
