BillsPride12 Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 Went golfing near the Rochester area today, so I used this opportunity to try my first Garbage Plate from the famous Nick Tahou's... I approve
ajzepp Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 Hot plate, extra sauce for me please Welcome to the club, brother! Man, I can taste that delicious italian bread right now....mmmmmm
Phlegm Alley Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 Mark's Texas Hots on Monroe Avenue is superior to Nick Tahou's IMHO. The cheeseburger plates they have are rediculously good. It's all relative though.

It's all relative though. Both are solid, but I prefer Tahou's or what used to be Tahou's on Lyell. A garbage plate cannot be fully enjoyed unless it is consumed at Tahou's or Mark's after 2PM on a Friday or Saturday when the flavor of each bite is heightened by the fear of getting stabbed or jumped. Knowing it may be the last thing you ever eat really helps you appreciate the humble plate. Charlie's in Victor does a nice plate as does Dogtown on Monroe Ave if you want to get your fix in a more reputable establishment.
firedawg Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 Jimmy Z's in Brockport does a pretty decent plate too.
JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 Webster Hots is doing some AWESOME plates. Way better than Empire or Bay. The tater tot option is a nice addition, and my new usual is a philly cheese steak plate with peppers onions & mozzarella, with tots & mac salad, mustard onions hot sauce (ie everything).

It's all relative though. EVERYONE does a better 'plate than Tahou's IMO.. used to work near the corner of Lyell and Dewey, so the guys and I have had plates from numerous places in the area.. we had to stop going to Nick's after several bad experiences.. (typically, under-cooked meat or watered down commercial mac salad) It's been a long time since I've been there, but I can remember my favorite plates being from Empire Hots in Webster.

Tahou's is kind of like the Anchor Bar. You have to go there at least once to pay homage, but then you realize other places have surpassed what they started.
Kiwi Bills fan Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 Can someone please ship a couple plates down to NZ for me? I dyin!
CowgirlsFan Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 (edited) Oh grow up! Try a salad. Great idea!! All of this sounds way too unhealthy!! Edited July 7, 2011 by CowgirlsFan
PromoTheRobot Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 (edited) Can someone please ship a couple plates down to NZ for me? I dyin! Just stack two cheeseburgers (or hot dogs, etc.) on top of macaroni salad, baked beans and home fries, topped with chopped onions and lots of that greasy sauce. Here is the sauce recipe http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSRSTP7k9rs77tciDe9uL771JgEq-H5a4kgS7wY1FQdcN1uPt7r PTR Edited July 6, 2011 by PromoTheRobot

aussiew Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 Are there any similar places located in the Buffalo area? It's kinda' hard to drive all the way to Rochester for a plate when I fly in to Buffalo for a game.

JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 this is what you eat after riding your bike? I have half-plates

It's kinda' hard to drive all the way to Rochester for a plate when I fly in to Buffalo for a game. University Hots on Main St. near UB main campus serves a plate. Never been there, but my friend said it sucks. Not sure if he meant it in a good way or bad way though. It received positive reviews on Yelp for what its worth.
