America's Top Dog

Von Tonner · 03-29-08, 05:13 AM

"A small boy in a green stadium has a yellow mouth. He has just finished his first ballpark hot dog at a Detroit Tigers game in 1948. He is very happy, but this is only the beginning. In the ensuing decades, he has consumed thousands more hot dogs, grilled and steamed, with or without relish, at funky stands, in backyards on Memorial Day and at a few glamorous restaurants literally putting on the dog."

I have to agree with the author here - just mustard , hold the relish.

The best hot dog I ever had was from a street vendor in New York. In fact I can say the same for cheese cake and pizza. Nothing here in SA comes even close. Oh, and another, a Tuna sandwich.

I've had a Speed's hot dog, don't know if it was the best I've ever had, but it was up there

Detroit Coney Island footlongs, with chili, onions, and mustard. Nothing comes close.

Same thing with Elias Bros. Big Boy burgers, and onion rings.
