Sam’s Corner hot dogs on the Grand Strand

PAWLEY’S ISLAND, S.C. — When I saw the sign claiming that Sam’s Corner was world famous for its hot dogs, I figured it was worth investigating. Now, I had not heard of it, but I figured I would have to see if it was worth while.
My dad and I went there after a day on [...]

Nationals Park Media Day: Victory Knot is not so much a pretzel, but a dare

WASHINGTON, D.C. — This gourmet sea salt covered pretzel is one of the new food items previewed at Nationals Park media day yesterday. It comes in at two pounds and comes with several spreads, like beer cheese which is quite good, and an Orwellian nickname. I imagine there will be several bets placed on whether [...]

Review: Yocco’s

ALLENTOWN, Pa. — For several years now, I’ve been wanting to try Yocco’s The Hot Dog King on the way back from my annual ski trip in the Poconos. Yocco’s goes back to 1922 and is perhaps the best known Lehigh Valley eatery. We stopped by the location near Lehigh Valley International Airport, just off [...]

Grading Nationals Park

After three visits to the new Nationals Park, I [...]

Rating area chili dogs

There are only a few hours left in National Hot Dog Month 2007, so I thought I would finally get around to comparing Washington D.C. area chili dogs. I think I alluded to this post as far back as last fall, but it was only recently that I got around to visiting all the establishments [...]

State College now a one hot dog stand town

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. — Depending on the season, downtown State College has had as many as 3 hot dog stands operating. For years Johnnie’s Hot Dogs at The Corner was the leading purveyor of frankfurters (specifically, tasty Nittany Lion franks), but it has been closed since John Cocolin Sr. died this spring. Dee’s Texas Hot [...]

Hot Dogs With Bite – The PostThere was a Sunday Source feature on local hot dog joints this past week with commentary from the president of National Hot Dog & Sausage Council. I’ve been to to two of the featured; Hard Times Cafe and The Vienna Inn (as recently as Sunday). I haven’t been to [...]
