I was born a Canadian, but I'm spiritually from Rochester. I've been eating what I now know as a Garbage Plate for years. My dad called it A Dog's Breakfast
David Infante This is a link to a menu for a restaurant in Brandon, Manitoba featuring various poutines. joebeeverz.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/JB-Poutine-Sept2015.pdf
pri mera Agreed on the best place. The very best place I ever had poutine was a trailer cantine on the banks of the Rivière-Rouge. Its been well over 20 years and I *still* think about how amazing that poutine was.
As a native Rochestarian, I think I speak for all of us when I say we love our neighbors to the North and you are always welcome to our delicious plates. May I humbly recommend you check out DogTown for your next plate? That will surely compliment your Dad's assessment of this local delicacy.
Okay, so, I'm a native Rochestarian and I'm disappointed that nobody mentioned that we are also have Zwiegle's white hot dogs. That's how I eat my plates.
Bausch and Lomb. Fredrick Douglas and Susan B. Anthony are buried here. Frenchs mustard. Lou Graham from Foreiner was born here. Farm teams of The Minnesota Twins and Buffalo Sabres... Scenes from Spider-Man 2 were shot here. Abbott’s frozen custard, oldest function carousel in the world. Wegmans stores, Kristen Wiig ,Tey Diggs,Abbie Wambach, Phillip Seymore Hoffman are from here. It’s philharmonic and art scene. The music scene is ridiculous around here. Tons and TONS of festivals. It’s the perfect Goldilocks town. Not too big not too small.
Gotta say with all the chaos going on, the two things I'm happy about when it comes to heading back to RIT in the fall are Garbage Plates and the Pakistan House food vendor that hopefully comes back to campus
HEY THIS IS ADAM HAMILTON ONE OF THE CHEFS ON THE SUSHI STINGRAY TRUCK AND OWNER OF POKE SUSHI. THANK YOU SO MUCH THRILLIST YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING!!!!! THE VIDEO LOOKS GREAT!!!!!!
Glad this video exists. Living out of town now, no one ever knows what I'm talking about and why I care about it so much. If any of you are ever heading up to Canada, stop by Rochester and grab a plate. You won't regret it.
It's probably the second thing I ate when I visited Rochester. Went straight to Nick's joint. Funny how everyone in the city offers their version and naming convention...trash plate, sloppy plate, rubbish plate, dumpster plate, bucket plate. Excellent episode! 👍
I didn't go to Rochester to have mine but My job sent me to Brockport for training. I was told before I left i had to try a garbage plate. So I had a garbage plate from Jimmy Zs and Bill grays Both were amazingly delicious.
I was born and raised in Rochester. I cooked for over twenty years and I can confirm hands down the garbage plate is the greatest secret of this City. If I ever moved away from Rochester I would seriously consider opening up a hots place in a small college town that's never heard of them before. Right in walking distance of the Campus. Cheese Burger Plate, HF, Beans (warmed up), ket, must, onions, meat sauce!
Just moved to Baltimore for grad school, but I've been home to Roc 3 times now already and haven't missed out on having a plate each time. I'll be back in 2 days to get another one!
It's been years, but I had a boyfriend in Ohio that was from Rochester. His best friend was here too. My b/f took me to Rochester several times, and we had a garbage plate each time. Wonderful. When either my b/f or his best friend went home to Rochester, neither was not allowed back into Ohio unless they brought several garbage burgers back home with them.
Living in W Palm Beach now, from the Rochester area, I had to order the meat sauce online and make my own. .Yummy. The Lilac Festival has a giant food tent where Nick has an area! Yummy.
ITS SO FRUSTRATING KNOWING THAT NOT EVERYONE KNOWS WHAT A GARBAGE PLATE IS AND NICK TAHOS. its the best thing I’ve ever had. I live in Rochester and this is the best food you’ll ever have in your life
Interesting cooking idea for home use. I found out online about Rochester(and Rochester Falls) from looking up my favorite beer, Genesee lager. With hops from the Yakima Valley here in Washington. Might seem off-subject but it does go good with food. I can afford more costly beer but there's something about Genesee.
I have but one criticism of the video; that last guy is incorrect about chicken spiedies being a "Syracuse thing." Salt potatoes are a Syracuse thing, but spiedies hail from the city of Binghamton, which is about an hour due south of Syracuse. That being said, one of the first things my friends and I did when I moved up to Rochester was grab a plate from Nick Tahou's. 3,000 calories? Totally worth it.
Love this episode! Rochester is far from being part of the rust belt though. Having said that... That garbage plate was part of a right of passage growing up in Rochester. I spent 39 years up there and loved their garbage plate. Well worth the 3k calories every now and then.
The Garbage Plate was terrific at the OLD NICK'S on Main Street but even better was the free entertainment at 2AM, 3AM or 4AM in the morning on a Friday or Saturday night. WOW! WOW! WOW!
This is why I love living in the Rochester area. I’m never leaving. Lots of people who grew up around here move out of state, and I’m like, why? The pizza is good the garbage plates are good and there are tons of different restaurants and bars and shops. Plenty of things to do and see. I hear people complain all the time that somewhere they live down south doesn’t have good restaurants and I’m like, that’s why I live here!
-The Garbage started at Nic Tahou Hots, a place that has replaced the owner three times, but never replaced the half broken sign. Makes you wonder if the joints that have fully completed signs don't sell garbage. -The garbage plate is symbolic of the Rochesterian pride in the half-assed city we built. -The Rochester baseball minor league team changed it's name to "The Rochester Plates" to celebrate this special day. Normally they are called "The Rochester Garbage." -@7:07 "45 minute wait for plates, out of mac salad for plates." You had ONE JOB! Hey we've had a lot of fun at Rochester's expense tonight, but let me tell you, as a New Yorker who has been up to the old RC more times than I want to count, Rochester sucks. Good Night!
I was born in Rochester but left at the age of 4 or so but I was sitting in my kitchen and threw some stuff together and my parents saw it and immediately took some and were like I'm surprised you remember the garbage plate. I was like what's a Garbage plate. I made it with no idea
I’ve had many different garbage plates in rochester. The original is good. But try jays diner with the fries. I don’t know why but jays is just awesome for a garbage plate.
So what youre saying and what I am guessing is the genesis was that a bus boy took the remainders of what a table had to eat, put it all on one plate while cleaning so they could just dump one plate instead of several to cut time. Some drunk College kid saw the plate and thought it looked good so they asked to have the same thing except fresh not leftovers. It worked out very well so they made it a menu option, and the rest is history...sounds about right, right?
Don't miss season 2 of InstaChef here: ruclips.net/p/PLH6iYAJIYyN_Xy8Oskje8rHuuSgpOUtmp
Why would you need a historian to tell you about garbage plates when the guy who’s family literally invented is 20 feet away in the back?
Hey, it's you again!
LMAO epecially when the so-called historian adds jack shit to the story. "representation of survival mentality in Rochester" - whatever you say, you pretentious prick
gross
There isn't even a "back" the entire kitchen and dining room are all one long strip in one room.

Wait, do they do something similar in Canada? Is there a poutine garbage plate?? TELL ME I MUST KNOW.

Concerns very well noted. White hots are essential.
Thanks. I was wondering why the hot dogs looked more like bratwurst.
"Best Kept Secret"...it's literally the only thing I know Rochester for.
What about Kodak/Xerox. They're good tho

🤣🤣🤣🤣
They are. Rochester, N.Y.
Yes. As a local, yes.
Using it for hangover food doesn’t help either with the alcohol shits man
Used to love going to Henrietta Hots for their garbage plates when I was at RIT. Now that I'm 400+ miles away again it sucks.
PFieroGT87 I gotchu hmu and I’ll send some out for you😂
GO TIGERS!
I'm sorry but H hots it's absolutely terrible, Ive given them 3 chances. Go to F hots or P hots if you ever return to the Rochester area
Gotta say with all the chaos going on, the two things I'm happy about when it comes to heading back to RIT in the fall are Garbage Plates and the Pakistan House food vendor that hopefully comes back to campus
Now I miss RIT. Graduated in 2009!!!! I also miss Wegmans!!
Tonight I am watching videos of Garbage Plates because I am on prednisone and want to eat my entire house covered in gravy and mayonnaise.
HEY THIS IS ADAM HAMILTON ONE OF THE CHEFS ON THE SUSHI STINGRAY TRUCK AND OWNER OF POKE SUSHI. THANK YOU SO MUCH THRILLIST YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING!!!!! THE VIDEO LOOKS GREAT!!!!!!
Right on Adam! Was rad shooting with you. Thanks for having us!
Trasher plate 🤤
1:28 dips fork in 3000 calorie meal, ends up with one potato and one macaroni 😂

It's because the Tahou version is the original -- and trademarked! Glad you enjoyed the piece. We enjoyed the plates!
+Thrillist Yup. So glad they trademarked the name!

Some hometown pride right here. Might get one tonight now!
Hell yeah! Which spot is your favorite?
Hiltonite, checking in.
@David Infante Dogtown for sure has the best plates.
Dogtown is excellent! Hungry's over in Pittsford is great if you sub the home fries for the double battered fries
Brian Shneydman that’s the shit 😂 love it there
"Didn't have the Queen of England yet, but we're still hoping"

That rochester accent really brings me back to being a kid living there. I kinda miss it ngl
Nice to see Rochester getting some good recognition
I didn't go to Rochester to have mine but My job sent me to Brockport for training. I was told before I left i had to try a garbage plate. So I had a garbage plate from Jimmy Zs and Bill grays Both were amazingly delicious.
I Grew up in Brockport, Jimmy Z's is easily the best plate in the area.
God I miss Jimmys

Always awesome to see the spotlight shine on the ORIGINAL boomtown. Thank you for stopping by!

Born and raised in Rochester, garbage plates are always a comfort food for me ❤️
Used to live 500 feet from Tahou's on Canal St. I miss my little city sometimes. Crotchfester, NY will always be home.
Me too!!! I lived right on the corner of Long Pond and Trolley Blvd. Now I'm in AZ. Been here for 15 years. Damn I miss those garbage plates 😔
JENNA MARBLES VEGAN GARBAGE PLATE BROUGHT ME HERE OOOOHHH HE'LL YEAHHHH

YAY THANKS!
Looks like I got a road trip to plan.
DO IT! Rochester is awesome, wish we got to spend more time there.
They’re really not that good
Seems like an opinion I would have to form on my own.
Don't walk alone at night and you'll be good
Grade A+ cinematography and presentation. Why you're not blowing up on yt is insane.
give it time. Spread the word!
Just moved to Baltimore for grad school, but I've been home to Roc 3 times now already and haven't missed out on having a plate each time. I'll be back in 2 days to get another one!

My hometown!! Went to high school with Chris Clemens. Everything he said is absolutely correct.
Thank god you guys went to my hometown and took a look at the plate. Now I'm regretting moving to Philly and South Jersey and want a plate so badly.
Ditto. I'm in Pittsburgh and perogies are good but they ain't a plate.
I think I need to make a plate with perogies...
Here from Binging with Babish

ITS SO FRUSTRATING KNOWING THAT NOT EVERYONE KNOWS WHAT A GARBAGE PLATE IS AND NICK TAHOS. its the best thing I’ve ever had. I live in Rochester and this is the best food you’ll ever have in your life
Sent by DeFranco - glad I did, I live in Ontario close to the border, this is worth an adventure to Rochester for me!
Great videos, Great host, Great stories, Great soundtracks. Keep it up!
Thanks Ryan! We appreciate the comment/support. Hope you'll subscribe -- and stay tuned!
You're too kind, Ryan. TOO KIND, I SAY.

its got that grease sir
And we're back!
love it born and raised in this city and still here great show
I've lived in Roc all my life and this is my favorite food of all time.
Love Rochester and love Tahou’s

YAY! We're excited, too.
You guys are killing it with the aerial photography! Incorporated very thoughtfully in a way that supports the narrative. Well done.
Thanks! We appreciate it.
I concur! Made my city look great from above!
Throw everything what your cooking on it... I like that college kids style!!
This channel's gonna be big with content like this.
Hey, thanks. We hope so!
What I learned from this video is that good editing can even make minor league baseball seem fun.
i live in rochester and nick tahous has the worst garbage plate in rochester!
It really does
I agree 💯!!!
U watch ur mouth.
So who has the best?
Nothing like the OG.
You can’t possibly live in ROC.
“The redwings we’re ready for their big night” *walks into a literally empty frontier field* yeah sounds about right

Shout out the cooks on the line, they deserve more respect.
True
Rochestarian here, our garbage plates are delicious :)
Who else came from Phillip DeFranco and really wants a Garbage Plate now!?
Anyone else here after Jenna’s video???
Megan Jones a not so last minutes trip to Rochester for plates night is a must!
Nope
When u move out of the Roc u miss garbage plates soo much..... I MISS THEM SOO MUCH
My hometown and I never had a garbage plate but will try one day
I work with some good folks from Rochester and they only talk about garbage plates every single day.
That honestly sounds kind of annoying but if I were from Rochester I would do the exact same thing.
David Infante Nah, it just really makes me want a garbage plate
I'm moving from Rochester soon, and man am I gonna miss garbage plates
We won't tell if you sneak a few with you.
They have invented this thing called a kitchen.
why moving?
I'm missing my hometown, when somewhere else is not the same
The real garbage plate you have to order "all three" mac salad home fries and beans.
Ooooh sounds good!
oh man makin me homesick
Time for a trip back?

Good lord lolol
Nick Tahues Garbage plate is the best one in all of NY
I was born in Rochester but left at the age of 4 or so but I was sitting in my kitchen and threw some stuff together and my parents saw it and immediately took some and were like I'm surprised you remember the garbage plate.
I was like what's a Garbage plate.
I made it with no idea

Thats looks so good Im making it at home
The meat sauce is the secret! Get that right, and the rest comes (relatively) easy.
As a local, I can say, they are so good.
Home sweet home. God knows I've had my share!
Would totally dig this stuff..
There should be a festival called The Great Plates of Rochester. Like Buffalo has a wing festival.
Thats crazy.. i couldnt imagine something so glutenous and greeasy but that said i must try it
if i don’t like mustard is there a spot in particular i should visit with a combo that’s tasty? i’m down in ithaca and want to check this out
Garbage plates are super customizable, you can just say no mustard when ordering.
My home town salute🇮🇹

As someone that prefers food to all be combined to get maximum flavour per bite, I NEED a garbage plate.. lmao
This video perfectly displayed what Rochester, NY is!
I looked up Rochester to see if it’s popular. And I’m surprised at what I saw ( I live here in Rochester and it’s cool to say Rochester I live here )
I really need to take a road trip to Rochester.
im a rochestarian!
Saw the Dead at that stadium in the 80s.
we koreans describe a mess of different foods clumped together "daeji bop" which translates to "pig food"
I like how this guy says Garbage lol
Rochester's best kept secret? You can't open a Rochester channel without seeing garbage plates.
Mark's Texas Hots on Monroe Ave is one of the best in Rochester
Luc DeCarr I’ve had the best garbage plate at Henrietta Hots
YES PLZ !
Lived in Rochester my whole life and I’ve had one twice
Jenna brought me here
SO COOL......MAKES ME HUNGRY......much fun much love Tee with LIONS NAMED LEO
