A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to go to the Criminals Hall of Fame on Victoria Ave at the top of Clifton Hill. I have been there before, but it has been many years since that visit, so I was looking forward to going again. The wax museum has been in the area…
Someone is trying to sell a free child admission or a 50% adult coupon on eBay for any of the 3 Ripley’s attractions. Bidding starts at a penny, and shipping is $2.99. They talk about a $7 savings, but after the $3 auction, I guess it would only be a $4 savings. The person with…
From Niagara This Week: Casa D’Oro proves affordable and delicious Italian food can be found in the heart of Nargara Falls’ entertainment district.

The bar/restaurant beside Little Caesars and Baskin Robbins on Victoria Ave has changed names again. Now it is Frank’s World Famous Frankfurters.
I mentioned a couple of months ago that Boccelli’s might be for sale. Well, the restaurant is closed right now undergoing renovations. There are also renovations being done on the main Lodge Inn & Suites building, as well as the motel portion.
