You are What you Eat
Hello everyone, when I first started this blog I wanted to create a comprehensive list that you could easily reference. I don’t expect people to dig through my old reviews to try to figure out which plate is the best. I’ll be keeping this spreadsheet […]
On Instagram, I asked my followers to recommend plate places; and boy did they deliver. Charlie Riedel’s aka Charlie’s Restaurant, is the best basic plate I’ve ever had; bar none. It’s better than a lot of the “deluxe” plates I’ve had. There isn’t any one […]
And… we’re back! It’s been a long time since I had the pleasure of sitting down in front of a plate. I had a moment to myself so I decided to venture down to Monroe Ave and try out Marshall Street. I’d been meaning to […]
I’ve been meaning to stop into RSCB for a while now, I kept seeing their posts on Instagram and wanted to try it out. For $11.87 you too can get the “Roc Style Plate”. It’s a solid plate, you could do a lot worse for […]
I had the misfortune of trying the Tryon City Tavern’s plate offering a few weeks ago. I put a poll on Instagram to let the people decide, and a different restaurant won. I was all excited to go to this other place and try their […]
MESSAGE FROM THE EDITOR: Please note, I have edited this review based on some feedback I received from the owner of the restaurant. This feedback was specifically related to the burgers, the home fries, and the health inspection. You will see the edited portions as […]
If you follow me on Instagram, you may recall that a few months ago I made a plate live for my Instagram audience. It was a ton of fun, and I’d like to do another one in the future and try to improve on the […]
JB Quimby’s and I have a long history. When I worked in Henrietta, we would go there almost every Wednesday for the lunch special. I think it was 5$, but I could be mistaken; and it isn’t clear to me that they still run that […]
This is the beginning of a series I’m calling, “I revisit a place to give it a second look.” (I’m still working on the name.) I had the chance to check out Dogtown (again) after a long hiatus. I’ll say up front that I’m a […]
You’ve had them before, we all have. The mediocre plate. You know exactly where to get them, and exactly what they’re going to taste like. But why is it that they all taste similar? Why do all bad plates have similar issues? I’ve tried more […]
For the first time in a long time, I had trouble finishing a plate. In the past, I’ve had trouble finishing plates because there was “too much” food. I’ve never had an experience where a plate grossed me out. I’ll elaborate, the “Pond Plate” from […]
I had a chance to check out Mac’s Philly steaks a few weeks ago. As has become the norm, I polled my Instagram followers and Mac’s Philly won the vote. For 12.52 you can get the “Mac’s Plate” which comes with all the standard ingredients. […]
A few people on Instagram mentioned that I should try the plate from Dicky’s. I’ve been in Rochester a while, and I lived in Swillburg. I didn’t drink at Dicky’s despite it’s convenience. This new iteration of Dicky’s is a lot nicer than what I […]
