This is a quintessential American roadside hot dog place. They cook their hot dogs in peanut oil and have a good number of configurations as to toppings (chili dog, bacon dog, cowboy dog, etc.). There are some drinks in reach-in fridges outside. I believe that they're cash-only, but don't quote me on that. Every time I'm in town I try to stop in for a dog and I recommend you do too if you can!
The best $3.50 lunch in Portland happens to be two hours north, but it's worth the drive! Don't look like a tourist - when ordering a dog "with everything" you don't need to repeat what the sign next to the window says. Just like you wouldn't say "we gotta stop at the 'ATM machine' on our way to Dunkin for a 'regular, cream and sugar'"
The food was great as always.My only complaint is that the cook1) handles the buns bare handed2) handles money and doest wash hands after before he handles the next bun barehanded!!!3) uses the same utensil to put on onions and relish without rinsing it in between. (Cross contamination)4) wipes hands on dirty apron and continues handling buns bare handedAll of these actions are sooo against safe food handling guidelines and could cause someone to get sick.
