Garbage Plate

We had a fun week this week because my brother Rob came to visit us. He had a conference in Syracuse, NY which is about an hour and a half away from us so he made the drive over and spent a day and a half with us before he had to drive back! It was short but we still had fun. One request Rob had was to test out the famous Rochester "Garbage Plate." We had never had one before so we were all for it!!!
What is a "Garbage Plate"?
A Garbage Plate is a combination of one selection of cheeseburgers, hot dogs, Italian sausages, chicken tenders, or fish and two sides of either home fries, French fries, baked beans, or macaroni salad. On top of that are the options of mustard and onions, ketchup, hot sauce, and a greasy sauce with spices and ground beef. Then it's served with Toast on the side.
Is a "Garbage Plate" Good?
Yes, it was surprisingly good! Definitely not something I want to eat everyday, but it was fun to try out something new and something unique to this area!

So if you want to try a "Garbage Plate" come visit and we'll treat ya to some fine dining!
P.S.
Health.com named the "Garbage Plate" the fattiest food in the state of New York!!!!!!!

Thanks for humoring him--he's been wanting to try it ever since we heard about it. I would recommend only eating it on 'special' occasions--it looks frightening!!
