On March 4, 1964, Dominic Bellissimo was tending bar at the now-famous Anchor Bar Restaurant in Buffalo, NY. A group of Dominic's friends arrived at the bar with ravenous appetites. Dominic asked his mother, Teressa, to prepare something for his friends to eat. And the rest, they say, is history. From that evening on, Buffalo Wings became a regular part of the menu at the Anchor Bar, and has spread across the globe.
