stinky finger Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 Rochester has Beef on Weck, Southwest style burritos (like Moe's) , Philly steak, and of course garbage plates. They might rival a balogna sammich. Moe's = Alpo I do like the in-shell peanut. I'm also one of those weird people who likes to eat a few shell and all. Not too many, just a couple. That salt is just so good. Love the fiber myself Quote
Winston Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 Is "Eat at Pearl Street before the game" an acceptable answer? Damn do I miss that place. Quote
Meathead Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 i played in a mens league that was at a rink with a legitimate restaurant. so you could accuse a guy of being a ****ing wussy on the ice and have a steak and jack daniels with him afterwards Quote
Drunkard Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 I'm usually beer only once I enter the arena but I went with nachos. Second choice would probably be one of those cafeteria style cheeseburgers wrapped in aluminum foil but it's not a regular thing. Quote
Doohicksie Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 (edited) BBQ Pulled Pork Nachos at the arena in Raleigh are good. I'll be they are. I lurvs me some pulled pork. I know the Carolinas are ground zero for that. It's making its way out here but I bet it's not as good as it is out east. i played in a mens league that was at a rink with a legitimate restaurant. so you could accuse a guy of being a ****ing wussy on the ice and have a steak and jack daniels with him afterwards Our fraternity chapter at RPI had (maybe they still do) an annual hockey game against the chapter of our frat at Clarkson. My freshman year I rode over to the rink on the bus with the guys from Clarkson. They stopped at Price Chopper for food. One of the guys bought a steak and proceeded to eat it.... raw.... on the bus. Those guys were nuts (and they usually beat us handily). I'll have to research this when I go to the game in Dallas in a couple weeks. I wonder what they have at the AAC. (Last year I had something at Pira, a bar at the AAC. It wasn't arena food, it was the restaurant's menu (apparently they have other locations). I think it was nachos but I recall trying to stuff them in my mouth because it took forever to serve them. I plan to get there earlier this year. Edited January 9, 2017 by Doohickie Quote

What happened to Pearl Street? I was there a few years ago but didn't eat. The beer there is good, but nothing memorable. The primary thing I remember was the awesome belt-drive fan system. Quote
Eleven Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 I'll eat a couple with shells too, oddly satisfying. What happened to Pearl Street? I was there a few years ago but didn't eat. The beer there is good, but nothing memorable. The primary thing I remember was the awesome belt-drive fan system. It's still there, the beer is still mediocre, and the food is too. (Except the wings are pretty good.) Quote
hsif Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 (edited) Always go with the soft pretzel....... goes good with the beer, and you're not gonna wind up with a yellow, cheeze-like, sebaceous substance on your shirt..... or mustache. Edited January 9, 2017 by hsif Quote

Samson's Flow Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 I do like the in-shell peanut. I'm also one of those weird people who likes to eat a few shell and all. Not too many, just a couple. That salt is just so good. I eat all of them full shell. Its faster. Quote
darksabre Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 I eat all of them full shell. Its faster. RIP your colon Quote
SwampD Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 I am baffled by all this eating the whole shell thing. Quote
inkman Posted January 9, 2017 Author Report Posted January 9, 2017 I am baffled by all this eating the whole shell thing.Yeah soy sauce is nice for dipping but I'm not drinking the damn stuff. A bunch of horses around here with their salt licks. Quote
josie Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 I don't eat at games usually, but after playing a game, nothing beats a lot of beer and some greasy tater tots or fries. Deep fry them potatoes. Salt liberally. Wolf down. Quote

The beer there is good, but nothing memorable. The primary thing I remember was the awesome belt-drive fan system. Oh nothing happened to Pearl Street. I just moved away from Buffalo. It used to be my go-to spot before games. Especially when there was free parking on Commercial and Perry, I'd park down there and swing through Pearl for some appetizers and a couple beers before each game I attended. Their beer wasn't the best around Buffalo, but there were a couple I enjoyed and were worth ordering each time. Beers were priced cheaply too. And I never had a meal I didn't like there. Very much enjoyed their food! Pizza, wings, steak bomber, nachos. I think their burgers are underwhelming, but the rest always hit the nail on the head for some pregame food. And the setting is very cool. The pulley-system fans, two stories with balconies in the summer, all the hanging baskets. Hell, even the 5 foot tall urinals are neat haha. Just a neat place with a lot of memories for me. I never ate in the arena other than peanuts because of that place :) Quote

Doohicksie Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 Hot cocoa with tiny marshmallows. Only for outdoor games. Quote
Meathead Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 i wasnt playing bc i was on vaca but i recall an active outdoor rink in austria with a bar you could skate up to and get what they called a jägertea but was really more like a hot long island ice tea coffee. twice the caffeine and five times the drunkenness. too bad it was just open skate that night but they did play hockey on it. woulda loved to see that eh Quote
