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. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Success Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 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.

Johnny Hammersticks Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Jack Posted June 26, 2020 Author Share Posted June 26, 2020 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. https://www.brick-n-barrel.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apuszczalowski Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 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.
