By saying not the same Nathan's dogs, do you mean the meat recipe/formula, or the size and width dog?

I think the recipe/formula IS different. for wone thing, when you get at DOG at a Nathan's they have that 'snap' when you bite them...like many of the good hot dog place dogs. The weiners they sale in groceries are skinless so no snap.

The method of preparation is different at the resturants. They are not boiled or microwaved. It's just better at the actual resturant than the grocery version. There is the whole "go out for a dog" thing. You CAN cook a hamburger at home, but you still go out for them. Same with hot dogs. Again, what kind of place would we open. I think a good hot dog place would be a good thing.

I can't always get to Chicago Al's.
