I think it's off of Spicewood Springs or Far West. My parents loved it when they were living there. Closest you could get to a genuine Chicago dog in Austin, they said.
Is this the same Lucky Dog as the authentic New Orleans Lucky Dogs? I remember begging for one from my parents everytime we walked around the French quarter...
Exactly. I know I've said this before, but if I build a house, I'm SO gonna put a cheese gun into my kitchen.
Cool. I'll have to check it out soon. I work pretty close to P-ville, so if the Freak is right, I might be enjoying a Lucky Dog for lunch tomorrow.
i renovated my kitchen last year and SO wanted to build in a beer tap. my wife talked me out of it and it's probably a damn good thing. i keep half the homeless of brooklyn knee deep in empty beer bottles.
Speaking of chili and cheese...Tookies in Seabrook makes a pretty good chili cheeseburger. Definitely a fork and knife job!
i know what it is, my wife is austrian and we eat them often, but why does a national hotdog chain call themselves wienerschnitzel?
They had a weinerschnitzel in Lubbock. I always thought they were awful. Also, nobody has said yet whether the Lucky Dog in Austin is the same as the Lucky Dogs they have in New Orleans. Is it?
man, so true about that HeB thing. i just came back from JCI. my first time there and tried the coneys. they were nasty. i usually go to HEB and buy a pack of buns, hotdogs, chili, onions, cheese, and jalepenos for about 5 bucks and make up to 8 chili dogs. i think i'm gonna stick to HEB.
You and Smokey are on crack. JCI has the best hot dogs ever, with a possible exception going to Lucky Dog's Sausage Dog in New Orleans. Then again Lucky dogs are 1 lb. monsters. Not a true hot dog. James Coney Island has the best hot dogs anywhere. And I have lived in New York, too.
well, i dont' know what JCI you get your coneys from but i wasn't too impressed with mine. they were quite bland and i'm glad i got them on special b/c i couldn't imagine paying regular price for that crap i just ate. even sonic's got better chili dogs.
MadMax, The best I've come to matching JCI coneys is at a place you've probably eaten at: Health Camp
