DOG OF THE WEEK
WALTER'S HOT DOG STAND
Source: www.hollyeats.com
Unneeded overkill for Walter's. Their split and grilled dog topped with their special mustard - a blend of spicy brown mustard and a bit of pickle relish is enough to keep the lines long come lunch time. Along with the hot dogs, a variety of fries, sodas and classic milk shakes. There's a delightful picnic area long side.

DOG OF THE WEEK
Coney Island Hot Dog Stand
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
| Coney Island | |
 Re-opening on July 4, 2007 in Bailey, Colorado. | |
| Building Information | |
|---|---|
| Name | Coney Island |
| Location | Bailey, Colorado |
| Country | United States |
| Architect | Lloyd Williams |
| Completion Date | 1966 |
| Structural System | ironwork |
| Style | Programmatic novelty architecture |
Coney Island Hot Dog Stand (commonly The Coney Island) in Bailey, Colorado is a hot dog stand shaped like a giant hot dog, with toppings. The building has been called "the best example of roadside architecture in the state".
The diner, which seats up to 10 people, is a concrete structure over an ironwork frame. The bun is 35 feet long, and the hot dog 42 feet; the entire building weighs 14 tons. By one account, "the line usually stretches out the door, and the tables are filled."
It was originally built in 1966 on Colfax Ave. in Denver, named The Boardwalk at Coney Island. The first owner, Marcus Shannon and intended to start a chain of eateries around the concept, and obtained a patent for the design, but they had gone under by 1969.
In 1970, under new ownership, the stand was moved to the Rocky Mountain town of Conifer, along U.S. 285 . Initially called Coney Island Dairy Land, it later dropped the last part of the name. Despite initial opposition, when it was put up for sale in 1999, a local campaign began to designate it a landmark and save it from destruction. The present owners purchased it for about $150,000. The popularity of the stand was such that its last day open, "the waiting line extended literally for miles". On March 18, 2006, to make way for a bank, the stand was moved again, 20 miles down U.S. Highway 285 to its present location in Bailey, close to Pike National Forest. Now, the giant hot dog is so popular that the bridge servicing the stand gets approximatley twice the traffic that it is rated for.

New identity for Gourmet Hotdog launch in the UK
R&D&Co clinched the contract to create a brand identity, packaging and retail interiors scheme last October
The group has worked with a number of collaborators on the retail format and digital specialist as well as on interactive elements that will allow customers to create their own hotdogs.
It is hoped that the interior component could eventually be taken to outdoor events, festivals and concerts, where consumers will instantly recognize it as the Gourmet Hotdog brand.
So the next time your in the Soho, London look for The Gourmet Hotdog Company.
