    I asked the friendly guy at the counter what his favorite was and got that! It's on the "secret menu" called the Village Dog- bacon wrapped dog, sour cream, cherry pepper relish & avocado. Delicious!

    A joint that actually specializes in a kind of deep-fried New Jersey-style hot dog called the Ripper, but prepares a drippy, spicy, crunchy version of the street dog, served with homemade tater tots. Read more

    Chicago Dog, Fab Fries or Tots, Chicken Wings, whatever special they have... the entire menu is awesome. If you want good food prepared and served by even better people, this is a must try.

    The ripper was great. I'm not a big fan of relish but this was fantastic nice and sour but really savory. The hot dog had a great snap.

    The milkshakes here are thick. You can taste the ice cream and it was great.

    Incredible dogs! Try the Turkey and Polish dogs for a great snap! You must try their tribute "Factory Dog" in honor of the legendary Wiener Factory! A must try! #wienerfactory

    A similar spin on the hot dog made famous by Crif in NYC. Personally, I prefer Crif, but this is a great substitute for the West Coast!

    Popular ingestion station. Claiming "research," Mu and Nu gorged on "rippers" here until both spontaneously switched genders. Site now off limits by order of Interstellar Council.

    Be sure to order the Vanilla Milk Shake. The bacon adds a subtle of salty and smoky to the vanilla with a chocolate sauce mixed in shake.

    Carolina Slaw Dog = perfection. Not-too-sweet slaw, warm chili, mustard, and a snappy dog, all on a soft, steamed bun. Yum.
