For One Unforgettable Beef On Weck, New York Locals Keep Returning To These 8 Joints

Thin-sliced roast beef, a salty caraway roll, and a smear of horseradish make up one of the most loved sandwiches in New York. Beef on weck is a Western New York classic, and the best versions come from taverns, diners, and butcher-style counters that have been perfecting it for years.

The 10 Remote Finger Lakes, New York Diners Most Travelers Never Find

Breakfast at one country diner can cost less than a fancy coffee, and I love that math. The doors open at 5 AM, so early birds can dig in before most alarms even ring. Getting to places like that usually means leaving the busy lakeside traffic far behind you. You’ll roll down quiet county roads between the lakes, where the towns seem to get smaller with every mile.

All-you-can-eat Asian restaurant opens in Henrietta | Exclusive

MOSU Asian BBQ & Hot Pot has opened in the former Red Lobster at 655 Jefferson Road in Henrietta. It is the second location for the Albany-based restaurant. The restaurant offers two interactive all-you-care-to-eat experiences: Asian BBQ, in which diners cook their food on gas-fired ceramic charcoal grills, or hot pot, in which they cook their food in broth. Diners have two hours in which to enjoy their meals. The Asian barbecue menu includes beef, lamb, poultry, seafood and vegetable choices. The hot pot menu is made up of broth bases, ranging from mild to spicy, to be combined with meat, seafood, vegetables, noodles and/or rice. The menu offers vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian, halal and gluten-friendly options. Its bar also serves craft cocktails, mocktails, wine, beer, sake, soju and an a la carte menu of shareable plates. Happy hour runs from 3 to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, with 20% off bar fare, house wines, beer and sake. Built in the mid-1970s, the Red Lobster building had been vacant since May 2024, when the casual-dining seafood chain shut down dozens of locations nationwide and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy (from which it later emerged). The location at 1515 W. Ridge Road,

New pub opens near Honeoye Lake with beef on weck, burgers | Exclusive

Meech is a beloved pet, specifically April Baylor's Chihuahua Daschund pug, a 10-year-old chiweenie who curls up under desk. Meech is also in the name of Baylor's pub, which opened over the Halloween weekend near Honeoye Lake in the space that most recently housed various incarnations of the Valley Inn, and has been in use, off and on, as a restaurant for years. Even before opening, it seems Meech's was on everyone's lips. "Everyone asks," Baylor said. "It's so funny." Baylor, 26, has worked in the food industry for years, mostly serving and bartending. When this place came up for sale, Honeoye's small-town vibe was a perfect fit for Baylor's small-town vibe. "A girl with a dream," said Baylor, a Rushville native who said she has worked all over Canandaigua, Bristol and Naples through the years. Baylor loves the people aspect of the food service industry, seeing people from all walks of life and meeting people from all over. The fast-paced environment is a bonus. "Some of my best friends are people I've met from behind the bar or sitting next to them at a bar or restaurant," Baylor said. On the Meech's Pub menu Expect to choose from a

Meat raffle! Meat raffle! Meat raffle!

If you’ve never experienced a meat raffle, you’re really missing out. I’ve attended two meat raffle fundraisers, hosted by my daughter’s elementary school in Buffalo, so I know how much fun they can be. These fast-moving, high-energy events are always entertaining, and there’s a really good chance you’ll walk away with some sort of meaty winnings: ribs, chicken, pork chops, steaks, burgers, hot dogs — you name it. (Experienced meat raffle attendees always bring a cooler with them, they win so often.)
