I keep hearing The Hat is good but haven't made it there yet. Next time I'm out Simi way maybe...

I grew up in Simi... definitely go to The Hat, but go for the awesome pastrami!

Cool. I'll be passing your way in a week and a half. Doing a week long turnaround to Denver on Amtrak.

yup, everything good there though IMO

In Milwaukee I'd recommend:

Martino's
1215 W Layton Ave
Milwaukee, WI 53221
LAT 42.959082
LONG -87.927682

I wanted to follow up on this project really quick.

We are going to be making a file for this information sometime this week. It will be made in the new database, which will be really cool. This will be our first test run with starting a new file that users can add their own locations to.

I added POI Contributor badges to your profile pages if this was your first time contributing locations to the factory;)

Great Idea!...

Being an ex New Yorker, I ofter get the urge to have an original umbrella cart "Sabrett Hot Dog" so I go to a Sabrett distributor at:

...and have them shipped from New York to California.

Sin City’s (Vegas) Best Dogs EVER!!!!!!!! but carries the Chi Town name… Chicago Hot Dog! The real deal served from what looks like an old red and yellow storage shed on the side of the road with Bears and Cubs stuff all over the walls. A mile from the Strip and well worth it. I’m not from Chicago and never had a dog in Chicago…but if this is what they’re serving…I might just move…wait… who I am kidding…it was 64 degrees in February today and I played golf!!!

OK, I finally have this file built and ready to be filled. I need a volunteer to geocode these locations and add them to the file located here: http://www.poi-factory.com/node/10739 You will have to be added to the file before entering the locations so let me know in this thread.

Thanks,

Miss POI

Here are a couple that I love. The first one has been on the Food Channel and has a nice list of famous people that have made the out of the way trip just to eat there.

Texas Hot Restaurant
132 N Main St
Wellsville, NY 14895
42.12202 -78.875201

-
This one is known for their Texas Dirt Dogs:

Louis Foot Long Hot Dog
350 Main St
Buffalo, NY 14202
42.883725 -78.875201

to lecture about the only real hot dogs being in Chicago, hehe. Possibly two POI files, hot dogs served with ketchup and those without.

The Wiener Circle noted above, a must stop for any visitor to Chicago, especially late on a summer weekend, the place really rocks when the bars let out. Go ahead, ask for ketchup on the dog, see what happens....

Chicago's Hot Dogs are #1.

Here are a few local favorites

Superdawg
Gene & Jude's
Byron's
Wolfy's
Fluky's
Hot Doug's
Mustard's Last Stand (No Ketchup!!)
Maxwell's
Paradise Pup
Portillo's
Jimmy's Red Hots (dog shack - no seats, rough neighborhood)

I think you can't go wrong with any Chicago Dawg.
(Now don't get me started on Italian Beef)

Hot Dog Shoppe
(330) 395-7057
740 W Market St, Warren, OH 44481

The BEST doggies ever!!!

Got you covered there partner. All the Chicago "Buona Beefs" can be found at:

http://www.poi-factory.com/node/7190

If you still need a volunteer, feel free to send me whatever info and I will give it my best shot.

Yes, but can't forget Johnnie's or Al's beef
(Maybe in another thread)

This place has also been given a great review by our local FOX 25 Boston news.

"The World's Largest Drive-in sits on more than two acres and can accommodate 600 cars and over eight hundred people inside. On days of Georgia Tech football games up to 30,000 people visit The Varsity. It sells more than two miles of hotdogs daily, a ton of onion rings, 2500 pounds of fresh cut potatoes, 5000 homemade fried pies, and 300 gallons of chili, all of which are made from scratch daily. The downtown Varsity is also the world's largest single outlet for Coca-Cola."

A real treat, on Friday the fries are cooked in duck fat, he has specialty gormet suasages along with the traditional dog. The line goes down the street, no matter the weather-get there early for lunch. His motto is there is no two greater words inthe English language than "encased meats". A taste sensation!

Also add "Jimmy's Hot Dogs" Nazareth Road in Easton PA. Just strickly takeout. The big thing there is a pickle almost the size of the hot dog ontop of the hotdog. Still just .79 cents. The lines there on the weekends are out of the door.

Perrdom,
Thanks for volunteering, I have added you to the list of maintainers for the file. This is in the phase 2 database where you have to manually input each location.

Go ahead and start filling the file.
