Nick Tahous - Garbage Plate
Main street location, of course! Made by my favorite cook: Gimi! ~
Nick Tahou Hots is a Rochester, New York landmark restaurant famous for its Garbage Plate. The restaurant was founded by its namesake, Nick Tahou, who died in 1997 after running the establishment for over 50 years. Despite the many regional variants all based on the same theme (such as Penfield, Fairport, Henrietta, and Perinton Hots), Nick's is widely regarded as the original Garbage Plate.
A Garbage Plate is a disorganized combination of one selection out of (cheeseburger, hamburger, steak, hotdogs, white hots, italian sausage, breakfast sausage, fish, fried ham, Grilled Cheese, or eggs), which are placed on top of a choice of two out of four sides (homefries, french fries, baked beans, or macaroni salad). On top of that you get the options of mustard and onions and the signature ingredient: Nick's "hot sauce" - a greasy spiced sauce containing ground meat. The garbage plate also comes with a side of starchy white Italian-style bread and butter. Most patrons typically smother this in ketchup, mustard or a hot sauce, particularly Frank's Red Hot.
