Spitzer’s Inaugural Nosh

On Day One, everyone gets heartburn:

Albany, NY - As one of his first official acts as Governor, Elliot Spitzer will pay tribute to New York’s good eats.

From cheese to wine, to the original Buffalo wing, around thirty of New York’s most beloved foods will be served as part of Spitzer’s inaugural lunch Monday.

Brooklyn’s Junior’s Cheesecake made the cut, as did Gus’s Pickles, and Yonah Schimmel Knishes, as well as Anchor Bar Chicken Wings from Buffalo, NY.

Also on the menu: Rochester’s famous “Garbage Plate,” which is served at Nick Tahou Hots restaurants. The signature dish combines macaroni salad, hash browns, and your choice of meat, which is topped with special sauce, which also contains meat.

Say “Yonah Schimmel Knishes” ten times, fast.

    Wings and garbage plates? This must be a staged act to give someone a heart attack to increase healthcare funding.

    Will the feast be transfat free so the NYCers don’t get their panties in a bunch?

    Better stock up on the pepto bismal with a menu like this.

    I reached for the tums already after reading off that list of culinary delights. As my mouth waters at the thought of garbage plates, I’m scheming on how to snag an invite to this party.
