Two words. Garbage plate...
However, when I was in college (2001-2005) it was mainly reserved for 2am post last-call meals.
Based on some quick googling, looks like the city had embraced it:

My brother in law is from Sodus, sounds like the garbage plate must be the thing for that region in general.Two words. Garbage plate...

My sister also suggested Dinosaur BBQ!

I know you guys have seen me mention this a zillion times, but just in case asking again: If anyone needs a tree or bonsai related item transported from Nationals, our climate controlled sprinter van transporter will be heading to Wisconsin and then the Pacific NorthWest/Oregon for the remaining leg after the show and the cost is being split so far amongst two parties. If we have a good amount of leftover pottery we will be headed back on that van also. You can pm me if you need a tree transported.

60.00 dollars was ever taken out of my bank even after calling them last week. I sent an email and got no response , so I sent another asking if I need to repurchase. So I’m not sure what to do , I’m obviously going to go , but just confused if I’ll finally get confirmation of purchase at entrance or if I have to rebuy my tickets.I think, we had the option to print out the invoice, which I did.
I don't remember any instructions beyond that and assumed I would be using that at the entrance, or a fancy French maitre d' would check their list to see if I was on the good list

Just show up! And the $60 is out of your bank. I got banquet tickets this morning for Nao and his sister and the charge didnt go through until later in the day. I printed out the online confirmation in case….

Okay, I see it. I'm on vacation, so not trolling the nets as much as usual!
The rumors are true. Bjorn is moving back to Japan

I seem to have misplaced my confirmation email. I’ve emailed requesting a new copy but was wondering if anyone knows if I can check in at the event with ID?

I never got a confirmation email. I think ID at the event is the general consensus.

So what’s everyone’s opinion of Rochester‘s weather this time of year? Of course, I can just look at the weather app, but that doesn’t always tell the full story.

Was always pretty comfortable this time of year when I was in college there. Probably a bit warmer nowadays, but still comfortable I'm sure.
Might need a hoodie at night.
Just don't go in the winter. Was glad there were tunnels between most buildings (good for skateboarding too if you didn't get caught).
No snow yet!!!

I asked a friend of mine that lived in Rochester for a few years and he recommended 3 places, Leo's Bakery, Savoia, and Flour Bread City, the last one closes at 1pm, so it may be difficult with your schedule. I'm not a fan of Tartine's croissants LOL, I find them to bread-like vs fluffy French pastries. But... the one I had was brought over by a friend that had just arrived from South Korea, so that may also detract from the experience.

Oh hell yeah I’m inI cobbled together a Bnut Button, who wants one with their name on it? You have until tonight to let me know, I have to print and make them. I'll bring blanks but you'll need to find a very tiny sharpie.
