You never know when inspiration is going to strike....
Tonight I was struck down by a documentary about hot dog shops, so I will be going over this documentary and geocoding all the hot dog shops mentioned in this show.
Sometimes there is nothing better then a hot dog to cure that craving.
So I am reaching out to the community, post your favorite hot dog place here and it will be included in the POI Factory Hot dog shop POI File.

Question on CSV format for the Hot Dog POI file
somewhat off topic, but will someone please explain the differences between these format options?
Thanks!
GPX - with Garmin extension (phone dial support)
Garmin CSV - regular line breaks
Garmin CSV - nuvi 350/360 line breaks
Garmin CSV - no line breaks (easier to import)

Thanks...still learning
Thanks for the links. I'm still looking for a simpler comparison showing example formats of the two and plusses/minuses (if any?) of each format. Seems that .csv is simpler, but wondering how much info can be stored in a .csv line...

Problems With Hot Dog CSV?
I think there may be a problem with the way some of these locations are being imported. For some reason, a lot of the locations that have an apostrophe in their name seem to be getting messed up on import. The "'" in the names keeps getting replaced with "’s"
Here are some examples of some ones I just submitted the other day:
Augie and Ray's shows up as Augie and Ray’s in the CSV file and displays this way on my Nuvi 660.
Guida's Restaurnat shows up as Guida’s Restaurant in the file as well.
After looking at the CSV file closer in Excel, I can also see a lot more entries with this problem. What is the cause of this and can somebody fix it??
BTW... Blackies is already on the list!
