Niagara Falls

Look past the Falls and the city actually cooks

Step back from Clifton Hill's neon and Niagara Falls reveals a real food city — Italian institutions, a deep bench of Indian kitchens, Turkish and Cuban rooms feeding the people who live here. The tourists eat by the Falls; locals eat everywhere else.
