Vegan Hot Dogs from Heaven



One more fantastic fucking reason to live in Dallas. Big D's Dogs at 3611 Greenville [that's right across from the Granada Theater] has the best hot dog I've ever had in my entire life. They use the these amazing Veggie Brat's [which we don't carry at work since they're not all natural... sometimes being the health food store is a drag...].

You're looking at a picture of "The Don". It's a grilled veggie dog on a grilled whole wheat bun topped with jalapeño relish, kraut, pickle, celery seed, onions, mustard and peppers. Chicago style to the max. It was perfect in everyway. Juicy, great texture, high quality toppings. Next time I'm going to go for just shit loads of kraut, because I love-a de cabbage, no?

Additionally the hand cut fries are MIND BLOWING. Some of the best french fries I've ever had. Megan and I also hooked ourselves up with their home-made lemonade. Cane juice, fresh lemon juice and water in glass with ice is fucking terrific, isn't it?

It wasn't cheap, but good food just isn't. The above pictured meal [Megan and I both had the same thing] rang up at $8.00 a person. That being said neither of us could finish our fries and next time we'd only get one serving to split. The lemonade was $1.50, and while very tasty, not all that necessary. I thought it was an excellent value for the amount of food and the overall quality.

The service was great: the staff was not only friendly, but pretty cool too, making it feel like a place you'd want to hang out all the time. They were listening to one of my favourite Jay-Z albums in rotation with Guns N' Roses, so I felt quite at home. As we were leaving, they told us they make... wait for it... veggie chili as well! Sweet fucking jesus. It's my new favorite place. I was very impressed, I must say. I'll be recommending it to everyone I come in contact with.

They don't seem to have a website, but their phone number is (214) 823-8223. Go there or die without having truly lived.
