This is the Sonoran hot dog street vendor that sets up every day around 6pm at the northern edge of the Gorman's (Gorman Cooler Supply) parking lot just at the southwest corner of 35th and Thomas. Been here a number of times over the years. This is where I had my first Sonoran style hot dog. Went drinking with a friend at Las Portales and we came out one night and there this place was. Back then I ordered the Mexican chocolate drink and I think they had elote back then. I did not see elote the last time I went a few days ago but we came just before they closed at 1AM. They actually stay open till 3AM on Fridays and Saturdays. This location only takes cash so make sure you have some before coming here. I'm sure the majority of folks that come to this location are coming out of either Las Portales or Chica's - both of which are a hop, skip, and a jump away. The hot dogs are wrapped in bacon with crema and a bunch of other stuff. Really hits the spot after a night of bar hopping. Guy running this place gave me a loyalty card and when I looked at it, I realized it's not just this one location - this is just a node in the El Caprichoso Sonoran Hot Dog EMPIRE! Other locations are:
1) 2122 E. Van Buren
3) 9444 N. 19th Ave
4) 1118 N. 35th Ave
5) 406 N. 16th St
6) 2901 W. Van Buren
7) 4027 N. 27th Ave
This particular location is their #2 location. The only other one I've been to is the 19th avenue one. I like the hot dogs here better though. Perhaps there's slight variations among the various locations. Plenty of parking in the Gorman's parking lot as that business is closed at night. I'm pretty sure the other locations have a similar arrangement. Might want to brush up on your basic Spanish as well since the folks running the place speak little English. There was a guy in our group of misfits that was fluent in Spanish and that saved us from any communication barrier that might have existed if he wasn't with us.
