JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted September 6, 2012 Author Share Posted September 6, 2012 Sorry I'll be missing this one. Have a 2 hour lunch meeting that I can't get out of. If anyone is up for a reprisal next Friday before the home opener, let me know. I'm sure we could arrange something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajzepp Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 when i lived in rochester i used to go to nicks before the murder when they stayed open all night but never ate anything. first of all, that place was highly entertaining but gross. by entertaining i mean there were literal crazy people living there, right in nicks. one huge woman who used to sit inside and talk to her imaginary friends in a hostile tone, and a guy bumming smokes and change with his dick hanging out. ive eaten a lot of unappealing things when i was drunk but even hammered i didnt want anything to do with the garbage plate - i went there just for their classic ambience. when i had my fill of people watching i just drove over to monroe ave for some real food - country sweet As long as the guy with his pecker hanging out isn't cooking the food, not much gonna keep me from my plate. All the drug addicts, hookers and pimps slumped over on the tables was part of it's charm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CowgirlsFan Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Unless Tahous opened up a location there, it won't be a true Garbage Plate. Thanks for the heads up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. WEO Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Man, wish there was a Tahous by me. Not enough time for me to get there and back to Webster in an hour. Maybe I can go to Bill Grays or Webster Hots or something. Not the same though. Tahous ain't the same since Nick died years ago. Hate to say it. Empire Hots is my go-to plate now...

Billybuc Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Nick's on main was quite the entertaining event! The food was always good as one could expect at 2 am with a beer buzz working. Country Sweet use to be up on Lake Ave near Driving Park bridge was alway a favorite, and Campi's down on Scottsville Rd right off the 390 with their Killer BOMBER sandwiches! I miss my old Rochester stomping days. The new spot for me at least is Sticky Lips Juke Joint on Jefferson between East & West Hen. Rd. I thinks it's better than the Dinosaur!

Meathead Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 dinosaur was good when they first opened, it was just like the cuse one. i had amerks seasons for a long time and we went there almost every pregame. but over time they became commercialized and they lost their home style flavoring. ended up feeling more like tgifridays than the dinosaur i first fell in love with. stopped going there about a year or so after they opened. too bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockpile Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Yes. Downtown, noon, tomorrow. Be there. Actually I'll be there a bit early, as I have to be back at work for a 1PM meeting. I will try to be there. Some chit just came up that is going to screw up my schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdand12 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Wow you guys! i had no idea. The new Nicks in Henrietta is like a sanitized downtown one. Just not the same, so good call. I used to live next to country sweet on lake one block away Glendale and Fulton ave. early 80s Nice friendly area.... But man those dayswere nice get a six pack of genny light and 10 hot with mac. legendary stuff. I was at Campi's last year i think. another classic. Cowgirl, Nicks was THEOriginal garbage plate. Drunkeness peculiar ambience and serious health concerns outweighed by the antiseptic Alcohol. There are some good G-plates out there and some much better, But Nicks is Nicks. It seems the new DQ on Jefferson is still waaay to packed since opening. 22 cars in the drive thru and a line for sit down a buddy was telling me today. Might Might Taco has settled down and i was able to get in and out quick last week. I only get a half an hour being a laborer. and thats from 1130-1200. wish i could have met you guys this time . hope another time Jay, have fun and Go Bills!

JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted September 7, 2012 Author Share Posted September 7, 2012 A couple of surprise guests appeared at Nick's as Just Jack, Todd, and I were joined by Pinto Kenny (he's such a lurker) and a long-lost TBD icon Dan Gross. It was great to see everyone and talk Bills (and Kodak). We're planning on doing next Friday also, at the Henrietta location. So if you're gonna be around, arrange your schedule accordingly!

todd Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 It will be interesting to see if a well-seasoned grill (such as the one on Main) makes a better plate than a newer grill. I'll be having a combo plate next time for sure.

Billybuc Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 May I suggest a in between (Rochester & Buffalo) location for the next WNYTBDGPS http://www.yelp.com/biz/ponys-middleport I've been going to this spot for years and will bet the house you will love their chicken wings better than Country Sweet. A pitch of Blue light and 30 wings for $20.50! You will be hooked guaranteed!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may not like that, and challenge you to a spearing contest (and bounce off you). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billybuc Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Ok, If and when you ever are passing thru to or from a game, give it a try! Again I'll GUARANTEE you will make it a regular stop along the way! These wings are THE BEST!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
