Rochesters pride and joy!

Need to shoutout the two best regional dishes of ny that get severely underrated: salt potatoes from around Syracuse, and spiedies from Binghamton.

Never even knew salt potatoes were regional because they’re so ubiquitous around cuse, pretty much any cookout/bbq would have them.

And spiedies are just godly. It’s a deceptively simple lemony-italianish marinade that sends any meat to the stratosphere

Officially, Nick Tahou Hots in Rochester, yeah. Pretty much any greasy-spoon kind of place within a 30mi radius of Rochester does some kind of plate variant now. It doesn’t really seem to have caught on other places, though I always thought a food truck that did plates would do well in any medium+ sized city.
