| - Finally, after months (maybe month...) of waiting, Fancy Franks is OPEN!
I've been eying this gem as it's been going up over the last month or so, and finallyyyy got to try it today!
Fancy Franks is a hot dog joint which also specializes in mini doughnuts (WTF AM I IN HEAVEN!!?), while I didn't try the doughnuts today, I did get to try two of their hot dogs, their fries and even got a cute little fountain drink!
This is definitely more of a lunch style place, with large bar seating (TIP: I really wish you would install coat hooks underneath). The decor is, I'm going to go with hot-dog chic, as one wall is covered in vintage hot-dog pics, and there is an old school counter where your toppings are added. They even have glass bottle pop (YAY!) but it is Pepsi (BOO!).
After taking a look at their wall menu, and then discovering their much easier to read paper menu, we ordered the California one (90210 something) and the pulled pork one (Southern something - obviously I'm good with names). You can choose between frank and sausage, as well as a variety of toppings and whole wheat or white buns. The southern frank was SO good - topped with pulled pork and delicious slaw, you can't really go wrong. The California one was good, but was a little dry (TIP: avocado salsa instead of avocado!). The fries come in a huge portion (definitely split-able) and were salty and delicious.
One thing to note, is that I didn't see a veggie option - not super surprising at a hot dog restaurant, but just a tip!
With 10-12 more hotdogs to try, as well as the mini doughnuts, and considering this is walking distance from work - Fancy Franks, I'll be seeing you!
