Hmmm. I was tempted to look them up the next time I'm
out that way but then I saw on their menu that they serve
Mrs. T's pierogi. Yuck! Those things are lousy. I used
to eat them when I first moved to Calif. and didn't have
a good source of pierogi. Believe me, you have to be
desperate to eat them. Once I learned to make my own
pierogi I naturally never touched them again.

Anyway, it makes the hot dogs suspect, imo. If they would
serve a lousy pierog they probably serve a lousy hotdog.

Although, I have to commend them on serving Coke rather
than the evil Pepsi, the anti-Coke! So maybe they have good
taste after all. Maybe I will give the hotdogs a shake.
