I lived in Manhattan for almost 5 years so I am
a bit biased to Papaya King and Grays Papaya. I really love both of those place that produce almost identical experiences which are consistently very good for over 50 years. Loved the neon lighting of Papaya King as I approached the store and it reminded me of the Manhattan location right away. What I noticed right away was there were only about 10 hot dogs on the flat top where in NYC I was used to seeing about 100 cooking at once all day everyday, but being off the strip on Paradise Rd there is barely any foot traffic so I understand why they don't keep too many hot dogs cooking at once. I went at about 10:30 pm, no line, and about 10 ppl inside. The Hot Dogs were great and both of mine had the "Snap" that made them famous. I always order the original w Kraut & NY Onions and add Mustard at the dispenser. Remember "No Ketchup" on NYC shot dogs lol I'll be back for sure at least once a week.
