Hooper_X pretty much the only contenders with the garbage plate as "best thing to come out of rochester" are that house of guitars ad with the ramones and also my wife.
The Mothership Nice to see them eating that hideousness with a fork AND knife; truly civilized.
dr tits oh god that made me hungry ... i want one!
fatatty They're really not that good. But when you're drunk they are amazing. 5 for the memories.
Camonk I was actually going to comment about how much they look like the ideal drunk-off-your-ass food. God, I can't even imagine how good that thing would be with a bellyful of whiskey.
Syd Midnight We're still way behind the UK in that department
boner POE has taught me that Rochester is a despicable city except for the record shops.
saganaki Living in the wilds of Canada, the Fox affiliate our cable company carried was the Rochester station.
I must say, it's a city with some great local ads, and a flavour all its own. That the garbage plate would come from there doesn't surprise me at all.
The Townleybomb Once I almost went to Rochester basically just because I wanted one of these.
Stopheles Doesn't look like it could carry beef-on-wick's bags to the gym.
Syd Midnight I just wiki'd beef-on-weck and damn that does that look good
Stopheles Forgot to add stars for what must be the the inspiration behind the KFC Failure Bowl.
Beef-on-wick/weck (wick in Buffalo, weck in Batavia, I think) is pretty much the best sandwich. I was psyched to find a place in Brooklyn that serves it, but might just get a recipe for the special rolls so I can make it at home and become fat and horseradish-redolent.
A friend of mine makes these in a bonfire by wrapping up whatever stuff is available in tinfoil and stuffing the wad-o-food in the coals until it's done. Surprisingly good drunk food.
