Hot dogs are one of those nostalgic foods that just bring you back to a simpler time. Maybe it’s a baseball game you went to as a kid, maybe it’s a summer cookout with family, or maybe it’s a late night in the quarter when you find yourself in line at a Lucky Dog. This particular restaurant has some of the most creative hot dogs you’ve ever tried, and you’re going to fall in love after first bite. Let’s check it out.
The original Dat Dog was a tiny little 475 square foot shack, but they quickly outdrew their humble beginnings. Today, there are three locations around New Orleans where you can sink your teeth into a tasty dog.
It’s hard to be in a bad mood when you’re surrounded by all of these colorful designs and intoxicating aromas. Step up to the counter and prepare to make the hardest decision of the day: what type of dog you want.
