This is one of the nicest looking hot dog joints on this blog. It's really a gastropub that specializes in extraordinary hot dogs and serves craft beer. Finding a nearby parking spot is a bit challenging as their own lot holds 5-6 cars maximum. I visited during rush hour on a Tuesday so it wasn't exactly hoppin' but it looks like it would be a fun place to spend a Friday night! Perhaps I will get the opportunity to test that theory in the future.
The variety of sausages available at DD is quite impressive. They offer options such as: chicken, lamb, duck and chorizo, all of which I have seen in other restaurants. But I will bet that this is one of very few venues that serve sausage made from: wild boar, alligator, kangaroo or python! Of course, the rarer alternatives do bump up the cost considerably ($14 being their highest price meals).
Below you will see pictures of our selections. The first meal is a Chivas Royale: an all beef dog with natural casing from Best Provisions (Newark, NJ), deep fried and topped with cheese sauce, bacon, salsa verde, sour cream and chives. The second meal is Le Poutine: a duck sausage topped with french fries, brown gravy, cheese curds and chives. Both of these selections were absolutely delicious! The buns are baked on premises and are buttery, toasted delights with a flat bottom to keep the contents from tipping out. I can't wait for the opportunity to return so I can sample some of their other choices!
So the meals following the next 2 represent subsequent visits to this establishment!
