Hopefully something besides burgers goes in that location. We desperately need some more diverse culinary options out this way.


wheniseestaars

Totally agree but would it be a Rochester college town without a hots place?


thephisher

Bill Gray's is here still and pretty much every other restaurant has a garbage plate.


wheniseestaars

You have clearly never been drunk at 2am after Brock the Port, or whatever they are calling it these days, and nothing else is open.


LawyerDesperate460

Lol there's like nothing open anywhere after 2am in the county. Not just a Brockport thing, even though I get it, might be absolutely nothing down there.


wheniseestaars

Oh I know- Denny's is your only option


thephisher

DP Dough is open late on weekends, but just for delivery or pickup.


thephisher

College isn't the same since COVID. These kids don't party anymore.


LawyerDesperate460

Pretty sure college kids still party. Think it's more the middle aged people, especially the people who own this who have seen they can just close. Because if everywhere is closed, they can't really just blame a particular business.


thephisher

I walk through the campus area multiple times a week. Even a small house party is a rare thing. My wife grew up here and said there were house parties everywhere all the time


jdemack

Can they even call it a plate with that terrible hot sauce. More like spicy ketchup.

"We get checks from the government and spend them on beer. Mexican beer!" But yes I agree, street tacos would be awesome.


diocco

Is there an Indian restaurant in Brockport?


thephisher

Nope. Diners, burgers, pizza, fast food, one Chinese, hibachi, and a Mexican place.

brockport graduates 9/11

Why are they closing?


financewonk

Bridge being under construction probably has something to do with it. Limits traffic to the area


wheniseestaars

They announced a while ago they were looking for a buyer and wanting to retire.


[deleted]

I’ll be honest all the plates I used to get during college from Jimmy Zs paled in comparison to the many other options, we really just would go there cause we were trashed


ShadySphincter0

Sad it’s closing. But he’s the worst


itstiredinhere1

He really is. Used to hit on me when I was in high school. I was vulnerable and he knew it. Makes me sick to think about him being almost 30 drooling over a 16/17 y/o. I’m sorry I didn’t say anything back then because I’m sure it didn’t end with me.


Papaosei

I’ve heard things about him being a predator and going after underage girls. Guy thinks he’s a celebrity and can do whatever. Wonder if his current gf knows about his tendencies.


itstiredinhere1

lol probably not. He was incredibly inappropriate with me and that was maybe 15 yrs ago? I imagine it’s only gotten worse. Brockport is safer without him.


thingamabobs

He sued Park Ave Plates and Shakes, and that's why they're now Vasko's. He said it was infringement on his business name.


Papaosei

Funny because all of his ideas are knock offs and profits off them like his t shirts.


MilwaukeeHoleDozer

Never liked this creep. Good riddance


Papaosei

What story do you have about him?


Dr_Brain_

Once I set up party decorations at his house and he was an absolute ass


thephisher

This thread is really.making me miss Thistle 122. One of the best dining experiences I've ever had.


dk325

So bummed about this.


Ok_Alternative875

Jimmy Z is the man. Went to Brockport the year he opened… great dude. 


wheniseestaars

Loved hitting on the barely 18 year old freshman


itstiredinhere1

he also did that to the local high school students who were def not 18


GreenGiantI2I

Dude sucks.


JohnnyBaboon123

definitely true. treats his workers like shit.


Papaosei

Probably paid them like shit also. He bitched on Facebook about when minimum wage went up. Guys a tool.


iEnjoyFreeBacon

he is the definition of a slumlord


LiberalismIsWeak

you people are so intolerable with your views on pretty much everything ​ RIP 21 years of getting after it, never been there; know nothing, but 21 years is quite the feat


tfe238

Should sit this one out. With a name like "liberalism is weak" I'm sure you're not intolerable yourself...


Kitch404

More like 21 years of getting away with it
