Many of you have suggested that we try kid-friendly mecca Bill Grays, and for once, we listened. For those of us who are 30+, you may recall that Bill Grays resides in the old Union Square nightclub building in what is now called Frontier Commons (as a side note, my sister-in-law used to be a shot-girl there, and she will never live it down!). It was the ultimate under/over meat-market. It’s fitting that you can just order your meat at a counter now. Speaking of meat, damn good burgers with this one. Really great mac salad too; maybe the best so far. The homefries were the pre-packed square ones. They were average. Came with a small, soft dinner roll which was kind-of weak. This one throws us for a curve ball though. The meat-sauce was…. unique. Let’s call it sweet heat. It was mixed 50/50 with hot & sweet pickle relish. Not sure how to feel about it. We all loved the heat. If you like pickles, this plate is going to be a 4.5 out of 5. If youdon’t, you are going to hate it more than your wife making you watch Project Runway.
This plate really works well for you breeders out there who have a bunch of little monsters you want to keep entertained. And that’s great, better to have them at Bill Grays than at the airport kicking my seat or getting in-between me and my luggage. You can scarf this one down and keep an eye on the little ones… and you will be satisfied. If you like pickles, you’ll be more than satisfied. Also, if you work in Henrietta, it’s worth a trip for lunch.
If you go there by yourself on a weekend, at noon, hung-over, looking weird, you’ll get some looks. Consider getting it to go. They give you an awesome full color box, perfectly-sized, to carry it in. It takes a lot to impress us… actually it doesn’t, and it was a cool box.
