With entrees from 50 cents to $3, the second Taste of Buffalo was held in “colorful tents” along Delaware Avenue between Edward and Chippewa 30 years ago this week, in July, 1985.

The event later moved to Main Street before shifting to its current location on Delaware Avenue from Niagara Square to Chippewa.
