Some people hear the words "Super Bowl" and think about football.
Others – like us! – think about the menu.
It's like physiologist Ivan Pavlov's famous experiment, which trained dogs to associate the sound of a ringing bell with food. But swap the bell for the big game, and make the food Buffalo wings, sub sandwiches and nachos.
Super Bowl LVI is this Sunday, so if you want good food at your party, get your orders in to these restaurants. They will be cooking wings, barbecue and pizza that would make anyone's mouth water.
If Super Bowl Sunday isn't the time to be eating 2-foot-long mozzarella sticks, we don't know what is.
