Chicken riggies is a Utica thing. It’s on every menu in every restaurant. I live in the Near Albany now and I’ll never see it around here. And most people have no clue what it is.

The Blue Canoe in Erieville is a great stop.

Wheatfields in saratoga and Clifton Park have chicken Riggies as does demonicos in Clifton park. Both a good but not quite as good as some places I've had in western ny. As for my favorite diner, crazy Ottos in Herkimer is by far my favorite. Best burgers I've had. Actually drove there today for breakfast and then took a stop at bass pro. 2 hour drive for me but well worth it.

I hunted the hills of the old mohawk Highland game club. Best hunting I've ever had the pleasure of hunting. And coming down to ottos after a morning sit was always and still a pleasure.

I've heard rumors about bigal's shanty being a good breakfast sandwich hotspot on tourney day also!

trapper2000 · « **Reply #15 on:** Mar 04, 2018, 06:56 AM »

Good 'Ole Circle E Diner, Hancock NY

Not as good as it used to be, but still good coffee there.

(I know some guy's like to stop at Apps in Cleveland after a day of fishing, for a beverage or two.)

Trap you are right. Can't beat Flo's for the price or quantity of food. That big breakfast is enough for two. I usually make a sandwich with my toast & bacon to take on the ice.

I personally enjoy cooking my breakfast right in the shanty. Single burner stove and a cast iron pan! Wifey wont even get in the shanty she says it smells like bacon grease and armpit........

No problem. You and trapper are always welcome to stop by my shanty for goodies. Then we can all meet at Trappers for some soup.
