Mel's has been our go-to destination for bagels any morning that we're travelling through Flemington. I almost didn't see this option since the Italian hot dog is the only hot dog on Mel's menu. Upon ordering, I received a huge meal which actually had some heat, but I wasn't sure if it was the mustard or the dog. I asked what kind of franks they use and the reply was "All beef," When I pressed for the brand, the cook admitted that he didn't know.
They use diced (or cubed) potatoes, similar to home fries. I typically prefer sliced potatoes on my IHD but the flavor was still prominent. A sub roll was also used in place of the traditional pizza bread, but still did its job containing the contents. That unusual heat made this meal particularly palatable in my opinion. It was definitely a great value and I would recommend giving this dog a try if you.re not hung up on strict adherence to traditional Italian hot dog construction!
