Arena Club Buffet?

[Friscobull]

It is probably a difficult call for Trips, he has had so many wieners throughout the years that it will take a while for him to reflect.

Then, CR, while we await Trip’s culinary input, how does that compare to the Arena Club dogs?

I’m limited by my golf course hotdog experiences which was led by Bloomingdale Golf Club with the Vienna Beef on a poppyseed bun slathered with onions and mustard.   I still think about that dog.   

 

The dome dogs aren't horrible but nothing like the Hoffman Franks. Discovered them when Syracuse was coming to town for football and in our tradition of doing food from the visiting team's area, our daughter's friends who went to 'cuse told us about the Hoffmans.

For a point of reference, what’s your favorite hotdog?  

Mel's ... which sounds similar to your BGC dogs.

Been to Mel’s my friend, but as a freshman. I remember the trip to the hot dog mecca, but not the dog itself.  I respect your measure.  
 

I wonder what brand of hotdog they use - next time out there why don’t you ask?

I guess I'll eat a hot dog or two

Steve, don’t throw in that easy. We have to find out what kind of dog we’re looking at here.

I'm not touching a dog until I get your blessing.

That’s why I said Mel’s was similar to your golf club ones. Highly doubtful the Club ones are VB ….
