it's all about the hot sauce isn't it?

if the mac salad is off, or the home fries are too dry, the entire thing is a mess.

ohhhh they really did.  especially at late night.  empire hots was always good.  most others taste generically the same to me.  just variations of how they're cooked.

I believe Garbage Plate is trademarked by Tahou's.  

 

Dog Town and Charlie Riedel's have (had?) the best plates in town.  Sticky Lip's BBQ garbage plate is very good as well.

You're just jealous because your work, once you're INSIDE the stadium, isn't as good looking as this.

I don't live in Western NY anymore.  Believe it or not, you can now get very good Buffalo wings just about anywhere - not quite AS good, but really solid (unlike 20 years ago, when I'd order Buffalo wings and get mini fried chicken).

 

But you have to be upstate for a good garbage plate.  Man, do I miss garbage plates.

Though, to add, I've probably added 2-3 years to my life by not having access to garbage plates.

Dog Town is on Monroe Ave not far from where Gitsis used to be.

My dog leaves me something that looks like that on the dining room rug from time to time.

Bay Hots in Webster was always my favorite, although I probably had way more plates at Mark's on Monroe due to the proximity to the bars.  Speaking of bars on Monroe, is Acme still open?  That was my home away from home.

never had a plate @ Dog Town but their dogs are quite something. @teef you should stop in there, worth the time.

I've seen a few places offer relish on the plate, has anyone tried it? I have and thought it gave a nice additional flavor to the plate.

 

There's a few places here in the Syracuse area offering plates. I had one from Brick and Barrel in Baldwinsville a couple weeks ago, it was the first plate I considered not being able to finish it all. Not because of taste, but because I was feeling full. They don't have it all the time, they change up the menu weekly.

Comedian Jim Gaffigan has a YouTube show where he goes and tries various local 'specialties' while he tours doing standup. He does one in Cleveland where he tries a few 'Polish Boys', last time he was in Rochester he goes out I believe to Nicks with a few others to try a garbage plate. He gave it a pretty good review.
